CDA grants special type of cooperative license to DigiCOOP, the first technology service cooperative in the Philippines

Aiming to accelerate tech transformation and provide web and mobile banking capability to its members, DigiCOOP Technology Service Cooperative (DTSC) has secured its special type of cooperative license from the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA), achieving the milestone of becoming the very first technology service cooperative in the Philippines.

Prompted by the need for cooperatives to be able to develop and provide a complete technology platform and transaction apps for their members, CDA issued Memorandum 2021-14 on November 2021, which includes guidelines for the registration of a Technology Service Cooperative (TSC), a special type of cooperative organized among registered cooperatives of all types and categories.

Under CDA’s TSC memorandum, DTSC is expected to pool its resources to introduce technological innovations, particularly in supporting members of its cooperative through e-commerce, portals, and innovative ways of bridging the gap in market access.

“We are honored to be the first to organize and apply for registration under this special type of cooperative. With this, DTSC envisions to offer e-commerce-related products to accelerate the digitization of cooperative operations among our members,” said Ann Cuisia, founding president and CEO of DTSC.

Assistant Secretary Vidal Villanueva III, Head of the CDA’s Credit and Financial Services, Banking, Insurance, and Credit Surety Fund Cooperatives Cluster, said that this step is a response to the changing needs of the cooperatives sector and community in general.

“While some cooperatives—particularly the bigger ones—have already started their own digital systems, there is still room to improve their smaller counterparts’ access to online services. The special type of cooperative will give us the opportunity to build the digital infrastructure for our movement,” Villanueva shared.

The DTSC leaders include Fr. Anton Pascual, executive director of Caritas Manila; MGEN Gilbert Llanto (Ret.), chairperson of the ACDI Multipurpose Cooperative; Roy S. Miclat, president of 1 Cooperative Insurance System of the Philippines (1CISP); Isagani Daba, First Community Cooperative (FICCO) representative; and Traxion Technology Services Cooperative’s Ann Cuisia, visionary and proponent of the digiCOOP platform of DTSC.  

“As the first technology service cooperative in the country, DTSC aims to be a model cooperative federation for similar endeavors in the Philippines as well as in Asia and beyond,” Cuisia added.
