“LANDBANK fully supports the digitalization journey of the SEC to respond to the evolving needs of its customers. Our renewed partnership furthers the ease of doing business with the Commission through the delivery of convenient services,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Cecilia C. Borromeo.
For his part, SEC Commissioner Fernandez said that the LANDBANK OnColl will help in the Commission’s efforts to transition from over-the-counter transactions to online payments.
“[This] will provide real-time and accurate reporting and monitoring made through online collections that will further strengthen our mandate towards transparency, accountability and good governance,” said Commissioner Fernandez.
Payments to SEC applications can be made in 609 LANDBANK branches nationwide as of 31 October 2022.
LANDBANK and SEC are likewise working towards upgrading current processes, from using the OnColl facility into the Link.BizPortal—LANDBANK’s web-based payment channel—to better serve the growing demand for safe and contactless online payment options. (Richard Ebona)
