The Department of Transportation has implemented a cashless payment on EDSA busway to lessen human contact.In line with this the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) requested to cut off the charges on cashless cards except for the fare load by Friday October 9,2020.
Yet this was earlier suspended because of complaints regarding high prices in order to purchase a Beep card as fare for commuters.
Suspension could be imposed when free charges on cards will be prohibited.
The distribution of free cards shall be effective by Tuesday, said the President Rodrigo Duterte.
