Palawan Pawnshop-Palawan Express Pera Padala (PPS-PEPP) and PalawanPay, under the Palawan Group of Companies, have joined forces with DITO Telecommunity to offer DITO load services nationwide.
The collaboration allows customers to buy DITO loads in more than 3,500 PPS-PEPP branches and through the PalawanPay app.
“We are proud to work with DITO, a company that shares our vision of bridging gaps and creating opportunities for all,” said Karlo Castro, president and CEO of Palawan Group. “Together, we are making it easier for Filipinos to do more, to send, to save, to pay, and now, to connect, all in one trusted Palawan Group.”
The initiative aims to make mobile services more accessible, especially in areas with limited connectivity options. By combining Palawan Group’s extensive branch network and DITO’s growing user base, the collaboration seeks to support everyday communication, online learning, small businesses, and digital transactions.
“Through this partnership, we are extending our trusted network of financial and payment services to include telco solutions that help improve the daily lives of our customers,” said Lisa Lou Castro-Sabado, chief business development officer of Palawan Group. “Providing easy access to DITO load is another way we support both financial and digital inclusion.”
The Group expects the initiative to generate around 50,000 DITO load transactions each month.
“From the very beginning, DITO has committed to empower communities by bridging digital gaps and opening more opportunities for education, business, and everyday communication through reliable connectivity,” said Atty. Adel Tamano, chief revenue officer of DITO.
