The Bureau of Internal Revenue tapped PayMaya Philippines Inc. to provide faster remittance of tax payments to the government.
“Having more digital payment options is part of the government’s efforts to drive ease of doing business in the country and help make tax payments more convenient for Filipinos. With our partnership with PayMaya, even those who are not within reach of a bank branch can make their tax payments on time, wherever they may be,” said BIR Commissioner Cesar Dulay.
With agencies like the BIR opening digital payment channels for their constituents, PayMaya founder and chief executive Orlando Vea said the quality and efficiency of government services were vastly improved to help drive the country’s competitiveness.
“We at PayMaya are proud to be partners with the government in not just improving service delivery, but also ensuring the transparency of services with the help of digital technology,” he said.
The partnership between BIR and the PayMaya is in support of the government’s efforts to digitize many of its services.
