MIDSAYAP, SPECIAL GEOGRAPHIC AREA โ With its growing number of beneficiaries, the Ministry of Social Services and Development (MSSD) officially launched the registration for digital mode of payout at Barangay Tumbras of this cluster on 19 December 2022.
This is under the Financial Assistance System Transformation (FAST) โ a special project managed by MSSDโs Finance Management Support Services Division, with the support of UNICEF and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the Australian Government. It aims to send the financial assistance to the beneficiaries in a more convenient and efficient manner.
โThe beneficiaries who are registered under this digital system of payout will now be able to receive the cash assistance through either their individual accounts or over-the-counter (OTC) transaction with partner digital payment service providersโ said Hamodi L. Tiboron, MSSDโs Chief Accountant.
The distribution of financial assistance for both regular and nationally funded programs of MSSD, excluding the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps), is currently done through its Municipal Social Welfare Officers (MSWOs), who serve as Special Disbursing Officers (SDOs) in their respective areas. Therefore, through this initiative, the Ministry gears to gradually progress from traditional mode of payout to modern payment system.
Also present during the event were PEO- IV Jamal M. Ali, MSSD-SGA Coordinator Haron D. Amer, FCWP Focal Minang M. Nagamora, OPPWDWP Focal Sandra B. Macacua, and MSSD-SGA staff.
