Aklan Gov. Joen Miraflores shows the QR code from his completed iPass registration that allows him to swiftly enter Boracay Island, after paying all necessary fees online.
This developed as Aklan Gov. Jose Enrique “Joen” Miraflores announced on December 19 on his Facebook page, the launch of the “digital Boracay Tourist Pass where travelers can pay the Terminal, Environmental and Boat Fees in just One-Time payment…Online! For a more convenient and efficient Boracay experience!” The system is being handled by PisoPay, a financial technology company.
The separate charging of fees to enter Boracay and the confusing long queues to pay for these were among the reasons cited by local tourism groups and destination management companies for why foreign tourists no longer like visiting the island, known around the world as one of the best for its powdery and creamy-white sand beaches.The charges, which should be paid at the jetty port, include: a terminal fee of P150, environmental fee of P150 and P300 , and boat fee of P50.
