MRT-3 Goes Fully Cashless with Kentkart

A big step forward for public transport in the Philippines.

With the launch of GCash Commute on all stations of Manila’s MRT-3, passengers can now enjoy a faster, more convenient, and fully cashless experience with:
✅ GCash QR codes
✅ NFC-enabled Android phones
✅ Visa/Mastercard debit and credit cards

Led by the Department of Transportation – Philippines and GCash, with Kentkart as the technology provider, this system simplifies fare collection without changing fare levels — no extra cost for passengers or the government.

At the core of this upgrade is Kentkart’s unified validator, which enables the seamless acceptance of multiple payment methods, including QR, NFC, and EMV, all through a single device.

We’re proud to support this important milestone, helping bring smarter mobility solutions to everyday journeys. Congratulations to everyone involved!
