Makati opens new Makatizen Card Center for faster services

Makati City has opened a new Makatizen Card Center at the City Hall to provide faster and more streamlined services for cardholders.

The center acts as a one-stop shop for both new applicants and existing users of the Makatizen Card.

The Makatizen Card, introduced in 2017, integrates various health and social benefits into a single ID and provides access to a cashless ecosystem.

Mayor Abby Binay highlighted the center's role in the city's commitment to digital innovation and people-centered governance.

This initiative simplifies and digitizes city services, particularly benefiting vulnerable sectors like senior citizens and persons with disabilities.

Senior citizens and PWDs can utilize the card for programs such as free movie access, and seniors receive cash gifts via the GCash app linked to the card.
