The Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) in Central Visayas, in partnership with state-run Land Bank of the Philippines, has launched a new digital platform called LANDBANK Link.BizPortal, designed for faster and more efficient online payment system for government transactions.
DAR-Central Visayas regional director lawyer Sheila Enciso said adopting the new digital payment systems directly benefits agrarian reform stakeholders by improving service speed and accountability.
“This partnership with LandBank enables DAR to deliver services faster and with greater transparency. Digital payments help us ensure secure, traceable transactions while making our services more accessible to agrarian reform beneficiaries,” she said.
DAR recently formalized the partnership through a memorandum of agreement with LandBank branches on Mango Ave., Osmeña Blvd., and Tagbilaran City.
The agreement strengthened DAR’s digital transformation efforts and ensures more convenient, transparent, and secure financial transactions for its clients.
The LANDBANK Link.BizPortal allows clients to pay government fees online anytime, anywhere via various digital channels.
By reducing manual processing and cash handling, the system enhances operational efficiency, lowers administrative costs and strengthens financial security.
The initiative forms part of DAR’s broader digitalization drive in support of the government’s e-governance agenda.
Other ongoing reforms include electronic workflows, centralized data systems, and digital reporting tools that improve service reliability and accessibility for agrarian reform beneficiaries.
