The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) has enhanced its Mobile Banking App (MBA) to allow users to make quick, convenient, and secure payments using quick response (QR) code to over 20,000 participating merchants nationwide. The LANDBANK MBA has adopted the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas’ (BSP) QR Ph Person-to-Merchant (P2M) feature to benefit both customers and merchants with a convenient and secure digital payment option, in line with the Government’s thrust of promoting digital transactions in the country. With this new QR feature, clients can pay for goods and services directly to merchants such as department stores, pharmacies, supermarkets, and restaurants. “LANDBANK is one with the BSP in making and receiving payments a more convenient, reliable, and seamless experience through the national QR code standard or QR Ph. This contactless payment feature builds on our timely and relevant digital initiatives to keep clients safe, as we continue to follow strict health protocols in the new normal,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C Borromeo. Apart from having a wide set of merchants that accept QR payments, LANDBANK clients who will use the QR payment feature will also benefit from having cost-effective transactions, minimized encoding errors, and encrypted payment information and data transfers. “QR Ph empowers consumers by giving them the freedom to choose their digital payment service through its interoperable feature, and this is aligned with the United Nations principle on responsible use of digital payments,” said BSP Governor Benjamin E. Diokno during the virtual launch of the QR Ph P2M on 12 October 2021. The LANDBANK MBA continues to record a surge in usage in the first three quarters of 2021, as transactions grew 50% to 73.26 million with a significant 124% rise in amount facilitated to P119.65 billion, year-on-year. LANDBANK’s digital banking platforms power the delivery of responsive and innovative financial products and services towards greater financial inclusion.

READ MOREDespite a sudden surge of COVID-19 cases in the country, Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) announced that its branches nationwide shall continue to operate to serve the banking needs of its customers. In a statement, the state-run Bank said a number of LANDBANK branches in the National Capital Region (NCR) and most parts of Luzon, where COVID-19 cases remain high, are open Mondays through Fridays from 8:30AM to 2:00PM, while LANDBANK branches in Visayas and Mindanao will continue to follow the regular banking hours of 8:30AM to 3:00PM on weekdays. However, some branches in NCR, Central Luzon and Southern Luzon are temporarily closed due to COVID-19 exposure of personnel and to give way to disinfection to ensure the health and safety of LANDBANK clients and employees. Meanwhile, the Bank's e-banking channels, such as the LANDBANK Mobile Banking App, iAccess, WeAccess, Link.BizPortal, Electronic Tax Payment System, Phone Access, and its ATM network, remain stable and available to the public 24/7. For a complete list of open and closed branches and their operating hours, please visit the LANDBANK website at www.landbank.com. Banking schedules of LANDBANK branches nationwide are also posted daily at the LANDBANK website, and at the Bank's official Facebook Page at @landbankofficial and Viber Community at @LANDBANK. With more Flipinos staying home as NCR and some parts of the country remain under Alert Level 3, LANDBANK once again reminded its customers to be cautious of online banking fraud and phishing activities. The Bank appealed to its clients to remain vigilant and ignore suspicious e-mails, text and social media messages, links and attachments from unknown senders. It also urged the public to be on the look-out for fake websites and social media accounts pretending to be LANDBANK by checking and verifying a suspicious site's URL, email address, social media account or phone number. Official LANDBANK representatives will never ask for a client's one-time passwords (OTPs), account details, and the card verification value (CVV) at the back of the card, among other security details, the Bank said.
READ MOREThe Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) is welcoming the impending investigation by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) on the alleged phishing schemes victimizing teachers, following a Department Order issued by the Department of Justice (DOJ) for the NBI to immediately intervene on the matter. LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo said the state bank is also coordinating with the Department of Education (DepEd) for the list of teachers who were reportedly victimized through phishing, as LANDBANK conducts its own investigation into their accounts. “We will actively participate in this investigation and extend full cooperation to the NBI with the end in mind of further securing our depositors’ hard-earned money. We are also reaching out to the affected teachers and conducting an internal investigation on their complaints. In the meantime, we assure our clients and the general public that LANDBANK’s systems remain stable and secured,” said Borromeo. Meanwhile, LANDBANK said part of the security measures it is implementing is the use of the client’s mobile number to receive One-Time Passwords (OTPs) in authenticating digital financial transactions when using the LANDBANK Mobile Banking App or iAccess, instead of email. The Bank said clients with outdated mobile phone numbers linked to their online banking accounts must update their phone number with LANDBANK. They are advised to visit the iAccess website, download and fill-out the enrollment form, and send the completed form to their branch of account with a copy of a valid ID. They may also use the self-service option found in the iAccess to update their iAccess profile. Once again, LANDBANK advised the public to remain vigilant against phishing scams and all other forms of online banking fraud, and to refrain from opening suspicious emails, links and attachments, and sharing of account and personal information. To report fraudulent activities, LANDBANK customers may contact their respective handling Branch or the LANDBANK’s Customer Care Hotline through (02) 8-405-7000 or 1-800-10-405-7000, or via email at customercare@mail.landbank.com.
