Rizal Commercial Banking Corporation (RCBC) has expanded access to the MySSS Mastercard Debit Card, now enabling existing users of its financial inclusion app RCBC DiskarTech to directly apply for the card through the platform.
The move completes the rollout of the MySSS Card across RCBC’s DiskarTech base, allowing qualified users to upgrade their accounts and access Social Security System (SSS) benefits alongside everyday banking services in one integrated experience.
Eligible users can complete the process through a simplified in-app journey:
- Upgrade their Basic Deposit Account (BDA) to a Regular Savings Account (RSA)
- Retrieve their Transaction Number via the MySSS portal
- Apply through the “Cards” tab in the DiskarTech app
- Receive the physical card via delivery
The MySSS card allows users to receive SSS disbursements, perform cashless transactions, earn up to 4.00% annual savings interest, and build a formal financial profile.
“RCBC continues to make banking more accessible for Filipinos through simplified digital journeys,” said Lito Villanueva, Executive Vice President and Chief Innovation and Inclusion Officer.
“This expanded access allows DiskarTech users to move beyond basic accounts and experience the full benefits of card-based banking. It is a step forward in helping more Filipinos participate in the digital economy with greater confidence and convenience,” he added.
Opening a DiskarTech account remains accessible, requiring only one valid government ID and a Philippine mobile number. With no maintaining balance, no initial deposit, and no hidden fees, the platform continues to lower entry barriers to formal banking.
RCBC’s partnership with the Social Security System aims to integrate social protection with digital financial services. Through DiskarTech and the MySSS Card, the collaboration enables millions of members to access savings, payments, and credit-building tools within a unified ecosystem.
The expansion underscores RCBC’s continued commitment to advancing financial inclusion through scalable digital solutions and strategic public-private partnerships.
