The beneficiaries of the Social Amelioration Program (SAP) can now expect faster, efficient, transparent, and contactless payout of emergency subsidies with the launch of a mobile application.
The Department of Social Welfare and Development , in partnership with the Department of Information and Communications Technology , and Developers Connect Philippines launched online the “ReliefAgad” mobile application where the SAP beneficiaries can register and send their information to their local government units and DSWD.
During the virtual press briefing after the launch, Pamonag said with the mobile app, the anomalies in the gathering of the beneficiaries’ data will be avoided and that the beneficiaries will no longer queue for long hours under the heat of the sun to receive the grant. “In step 2, you have to provide the region, province, city and the unique number in your SAC form. The system will authenticate the number,” he said.
“Once authenticated, the registration is set and there is a message that the details of the SAC have been set,” he said.
