PHOENIX Petroleum Philippines, Inc. launched a contactless mode of payment in its fuel stations in Luzon for safe transactions amid the ongoing pandemic.
The listed independent fuel retailer on Wednesday said it is now allowing electronic payment in some 100 stations via QR code scanning.
“This time, we want to ensure the safety of our customers by offering contactless transactions that could help flatten the curve [of cases of coronavirus disease 2019],” Phoenix President and Chief Operating Officer Henry Albert R. Fadullon was quoted as saying.
Phoenix has partnered with e-payments platforms Alipay, GCash, WeChat Pay, and GrabPay to introduce such a scheme.
The same payment mode will be implemented in the rest of its fuel stations in Visayas and Mindanao within the month.
Last week, the company launched its latest range of exclusive products for public utility vehicle drivers via the Bangon Tsuper program in aid of their return to mass transport operations.
