Open banking solution provider Brankas has announced a new integration that will allow MPT DriveHub app users in the Philippines to reload using their local bank accounts.

MPT Mobility is a subsidiary and the innovations arm of Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC), the largest toll road developer and operator in the Philippines.

The subsidiary expands and develops its portfolio of services by synthesizing eight operating units under its purview which includes the MPT DriveHub app, an all-in-one travel companion ap

MPT DriveHub users can now choose from a wider range of reloading options as they top up their RFID accounts without needing to leave the mobile app through Brankas Direct. Users will also be able to access their transaction history.

Brankas and MPT Mobility said that they expect the new integration to attract new app users, who will benefit from lower service fees when reloading through the app.

“Lower service fees are part of the brand’s commitment to improving the user experience within the app and making real-time reloading more accessible and convenient. We listen to our motorists’ needs and act on what we can, harnessing our resources and the power of digital technology.”

said Gines M. Barot, AVP for MPT DriveHub Operations.

“Our mission at Brankas is to provide modern and secure open finance technology that empowers our partners to create world-class solutions. The new bank integrations allow MPT Mobility to serve more motorists in the Philippines through more reloading options. In the spirit of financial inclusion, Brankas is proud to be contributing to the widespread adoption of the MPT DriveHub app,”
