In addition to giving discounts on fuels to public utility jeepneys and buses, oil firm Caltex, which is marketed by Chevron Philippines Inc., has committed to support the Department of Transportation and Department of Energy’s that launched on Tuesday, July 17.
Selected gas stations in the Caltex retail network of Metro Manila are ready to accept Pantawid Pasada Cards, said Louie Zhang, CPI country chairman.
Public transport workers only need to bring their PPP cards to Caltex customer service representatives for validation before fueling up. It is important that the vehicle’s plate number matches with the one printed on the cards, Zhang said.
Loyalty cards honored at Caltex stations, such as HappyPlus and Robinsons Rewards Cards, and other discount or rebate cards can still be used with the PPP cards and will be processed separately.
Chevron Philippines is also preparing its provincial retail network to accept PPP cards, since the DOTr and the DoE are set to launch the same program nationwide.
“In addition to our continuing programs such as fuel discounts, loyalty rewards and social investment drives that help cushion our customers from fluctuating world oil prices, we and all our Caltex retailers are committed to support all government-mandated programs to help achieve the same goal,” Zhang said.
