Concessionary beep ™ card issuance to pause from Dec. 22 to Jan. 4, 2026
The issuance of concessionary beep cards for LRT-1, LRT-2, and MRT-3 will be temporarily suspended from December 22, 2025, to January 4, 2026, for system maintenance during the holiday season.
This suspension affects the Concessionary Card Issuance Program (CCIP), which provides eligible cardholders with a 50% discount on train fares.
The CCIP benefits include senior citizens, students, and persons with disabilities who utilize a 'tap-in, tap-out' system.
Concessionary beep cards are valid for four years, with students needing to renew their card's validity annually based on their enrollment.
The application process for a CCIP involves presenting valid identification, encoding and image capture, signing an acknowledgement form, paying a P30 one-time fee, and waiting for card printing and issuance.
Beep card issuance is scheduled to resume on January 5, 2026.
