COMPANY BACKGROUND:

MRT-3 is owned by the Metro Rail Transit Corporation (MRTC). Originally composed of seven
Filipino-owned companies, MRTC took over major control of the former EDSA MRT
Corporation LTD (ELCL), a Hong Kong-based firm which won the 1989 bid for the construction
of the MRT-3 Project.

MRTC financed the construction of the railway under a 25-year Build-Lease-Transfer (BLT)
agreement with the Philippine Government through the Department of Transportation and
Communication. An Accession Undertaking and an Assignment and Assumption Agreement
were executed, which gave MRTC all rights and obligations to the Project agreements during the
debt repayment period and established MRTC as the Project borrowing entity. MRTC was
responsible for the MRT-3 Project design, construction, testing, commission, and maintenance.

The company also procured the light rail vehicles, train track, signaling, communication, power
distribution, and other equipment, facilities, and spare parts, sub-contracted necessary civil
works, fixed guideways, passengers’ stations, power substations, LRV storage depot,
maintenance facilities, and other necessities to operate the transit system.

MRTC is 100% owned by Metro Rail Transit Holdings II, Inc (MRTH-II). At the forefront of
MRTH-II are its Chairman and President Robert John L. Sobrepeña, members Alfredo C.
Ramos, Vincent Y. Tan, and Jesus R. Montemayor, and Assistant Corporate Secretary Rogelio J.
Bondoc, Jr
PROBLEM :
Everyone of us rode the Mrt at least once in our lives. For commuters they choose MRT as mode
of transport because it is cheap. It is fastest way to get from point A to point B, assuming both
points are close to train stations because it only takes you 15-20 minutes to get to work compare
to other that will take you longer because you’re stuck in traffic but just because they’re
affordable doesn’t mean they’re convenient all the time. For MRT passengers, everyday is an
adventure. They face some struggles and one of those is long queues.

When riding MRT, the passenger will queue first to enter the station and then another queue to
buy ticket after receiving the ticket they will proceed to turnstile to tap their ticket to get to MRT
platform. A lot of time is wasted because of long queue that must have used to something
meaningful.

SOLUTION :
To address this concern, to ease the congestion created by thousands of commuters lining up to
buy ticket, with the intent of improving overall public transport service quality AF Payments Inc.
introduced Beep Cards or reloadable contactless smart card.

With Beep Card, time spent in ticket-buying reduces. As soon as the passenger enter the station
he/she will proceed to turnstile to tap the Beep Card to get to Mrt platform and wait for the train
to arrive.
