MANILA, Philippines — AboitizPower has expanded the capabilities of its MobileAP platform with the introduction of Billease via QR Ph, offering customers across five major distribution utilities a more flexible and consumer-friendly way to settle their electricity bills.
The MobileAP app now supports Billease payments for customers served by:
- Visayan Electric – covering Cebu City, Mandaue City, Talisay City, and the municipalities of Consolacion, Liloan, San Fernando, Minglanilla, and Naga in Cebu
- Davao Light – serving Davao City, Panabo City, and parts of Davao del Norte
- Cotabato Light – covering Cotabato City and portions of Sultan Kudarat and Maguindanao del Norte
- Subic EnerZone – serving SBFZ (Subic Bay Freeport Zone), Olongapo City, and nearby areas
- Lima EnerZone – providing power to the LIMA Estate in Lipa and Malvar, Batangas
This integration marks a significant milestone in digital payments for utility services in key regional markets. For Billease, the rollout marks its most extensive utility partnership to date.
A New Way to Pay: Seamless, Flexible, and Interest-Free
With Billease now part of MobileAP’s payment flow, customers can:
- Settle electricity bills with 0% interest until their next declared payday or
- Convert their balances into installments of up to six months.
This is a first among traditional electric utilities operating across these regions.
This feature is powered by the QR Ph national standard, ensuring secure, fast, and interoperable QR-based payments nationwide.
