Bayad partners with Quezon City Government for ‘Trash to Cashback’ Program
As the country’s trusted
authority in real-time bills payment services, Bayad has recently partnered
with the Quezon City Local Government to foster a waste trading program called,
“Trash to Cashback.”
Launched in March 2021, the
"Trash to Cashback'' program of the Local Government Unit of Quezon City
aims to encourage their residents to exchange various recyclables with
essential goods at the LGU’s My Basurero Eco-Community Kiosks. Branded as Eco
Warriors, QC residents are able to make their transactions by logging in their
Environmental Points, otherwise known as EPs, via BeepXtra’s platform.
The latter, being a trusted name
in developing cloud-based loyalty programs, works hand in hand with Bayad and
the QC LGU to broaden the benefits of the “Trash to Cashback” program.
The said venture now enables the
conversion of Environment Points to pay for their bills. This means that QC
residents or Eco Warriors can exchange their various recyclables into Peso
credits to settle their bills in
real-time, whether this be electric charges, water charges, e-loading,
insurance, remittance, electronic toll collection, airline booking, or medical
reimbursements through the Bayad App at authorized Bayad Centers in Quezon City which are located at Upper
Ground Floor, Ever Gotesco Center, Commonwealth Avenue; Sauyo Branch, 591
Quirino Highway, Novaliches; and Gulod Branch, 894 Quirino Highway, Novaliches,
Quezon City.
According to Quezon City Mayor
Joy Belmonte, the "Trash to Cashback" program is the LGU’s response
to strengthen the waste recycling efforts of the city. Currently, Quezon City remains the most
densely populated city in the Philippines with around 2.7 million residents,
generating tons of garbage a day. "This is definitely a win-win situation
for everyone. As more people learn the habit of recycling, we are not only
helping save the environment, but we are also providing them with the
opportunity to reap special rewards while contributing to a positive
endeavor," Belmonte added.
Bayad President and CEO Lawrence
Ferrer expressed, “Bayad has remained steadfast in partnering with the local
sector to cater to the needs of the community. We are happy to be of service as
our payment solutions help encourage the people of Quezon City to manage their
plastic waste and care for the environment. Rest assured that we will continue
looking for more ways to differentiate our brand, innovate our services, and
contribute to building a more progressive society.”
The general public can download
the Bayad App via the Android Play Store or App Store.
