How to pay SSS contributions through GCash

SSS-Globe GCash

The Social Security System (SSS), which manages the pension fund of private sector employees in the Philippines, has tapped Globe Telecom Inc. to allow companies and household employers to use GCash in paying contributions of their employees using the Payment Reference Number (PRN).

SSS President and CEO Emmanuel F. Dooc said nearly one million employers, including household owners, stand to benefit from the mobile wallet service powered by Globe.

All employers registered with the SSS can use GCash and the payment will be reflected real-time in their accounts using their payment reference number, according to Globe.

“This is part of the continuing improvements in the recently implemented new SSS collection system that makes use of PRNs to allow real-time posting of contributions. In partnership with Globe’s GCash, PRN-based contribution payment is now made faster and easier for business and household employers through their mobile phones,” Dooc said.

The GCash facility is a free mobile application exclusive to Globe or Touch Mobile prepaid users and postpaid subscribers. To pay through GCash, employers must use the system-generated PRNs, which they can obtain from the My.SSS portal in the SSS website.

Both business and household employers will be asked to assign a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN) to proceed with registration. The PIN must be keyed in together with the following information: for business employers, the first and last name of the company representative and complete company address; and for household employers, the employer’s first and last name, and address.

“It’s easy to get started paying SSS contributions with GCash. Once registered, just dial *137 and follow these steps: First, select 2 for 'National Government Agency' from the list of billers. Next, select 'SSS Employer/Household' then press 1 for contribution. In the next field that will appear, enter the PRN and click submit,” Dooc said.

For every successful transaction, GCash users will receive a text confirmation indicating the payment details, employer ID Number, applicable payment period and PRN.

“Globe GCash also offers a safe means for all our registered employers to pay contribution without any service fee,” Dooc said.

Globe GCash allows users to purchase load credits, do online shopping, transfer funds and pay bills. Users can put funds in their GCash mobile wallets by going to any authorized GCash partners, and through mobile phone banking and online bank transfers, among others.

The service is available to employers through the GCash app, or the Globe customer service hotline *143#.

SSS officer-in-charge of the Service Delivery Department Renato N. Malto, explains that an SSS member who wants to pay using GCash needs to have a prepaid or postpaid Globe or Touch Mobile account to gain access to the GCash payment facility.

To register, just dial *143# on your cell phone, select GCash and enter the required personal information. You may also download the GCash mobile application and complete the enrollment procedure.

Once you’re registered, you may now start paying your SSS contributions and SSS Loan Amortization via Globe GCash.
