The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) has partnered with software solutions firm MULTISYS Technologies Corporation to provide local government units (LGUs) with an efficient digital payment and collection solution for local fees and charges. Under the partnership, the state-run Bank’s all-in-one mobile wallet LANDBANKPay will be integrated with MULTISYS’ Smart City App, to allow residents to settle their financial obligations to LGUs without visiting the local offices.

MULTISYS President and CEO Almirol said that the Smart City App is now being utilized in 75 LGUs nationwide, with the firm set to expand its deployment this year. The MOA also covers the integration of the LANDBANKPay with other similar applications that the MULTISYS may develop in the future, wherein the LANDBANK app will function as the primary electronic wallet of the MULTISYS-developed applications. “We believe that this initiative is very vital not only on a local scale but also on a national scale. And we know that LANDBANK is our key partner to really accomplish this,” said MULTISYS President and CEO Almirol.
