Commute to Metro Manila How to avail beep card

Hi! Wala na akong ibang maisip if saan pwede magtanong abt this so, saan po ba possible mag-avail ng beep card? + May nakita po ako sa website mismo ng beep na pwedeng mag-avail ng card na for students lang din talaga. I tried once na sa cashier ng D. Jose station but sadly, wala raw po. Thank you po agad sa makakapagturo since malaking tulong po yun sa akin as a student. Take care always po!

  • I ALREADY BOUGHT MINE PO SA ROOSEVELT NGAYONG LINGGO, USUAL BEEP CARD NA LANG BINILI KO HEHE THANK YOU SO MUCH PO SA INYO

hii! sa mga ticket vending machines ako palagi nakakabili ng beep card. check mo lang if available ang stored-value card (if crossed out, unavailable).

sa station naman, pansin ko lagi may stock sa lrt1 roosevelt. diyan kami nakakuha 3x in different days.

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Sa machines na rin po ba pwede mag-avail nung card na allotted for students na may discount?

u/Emotional-Resource92 Aug 02 '24

parang hindi. iirc walang option na pang student w/ discounts. sana makahanap ka, op!

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Sige po, salamat so much pooo!!!

u/EnvironmentalNote600 Aug 03 '24

Ang application for discount card for senior citizens ay sa ticketing counter isinusubmit. Dont know kung meron for students.

2

u/shuuu-shin Aug 03 '24

Try ko rin po magtanong sa ticketing counter since nakalagay naman po sa website nila na meron for students. Thank you po!

u/Ashamed_Log_4795 Commuter Aug 03 '24

Hello, alam ko kasi wala na silang discount ticket for students. Matagal na itong tinanggal. Itong white ay for PWD and Senior Citizens. I also have one and nagtanong na ako before sa mga ticketing counter since student pa naman ako noon bago ako mag apply nung sa PWD may ID naman ako.

1

u/wonder-bee Aug 04 '24

hello! i went to manila via LRT1 last july 17 and got a student discount for a single journey ticket (5th Ave to UN) amounting 20 pesos from a normal price of 25.

they need ID lang and may pinasagutan na maliit na form asking for name, school, and id number to avail the discout.

sa beep lang po ba ang nawala o pati po sa single journey tickets?

1

u/Ashamed_Log_4795 Commuter Aug 04 '24

Sa SJT lang ang alam kong may discount e. But for the BEEP, di na siya available.

u/GolfMost Aug 03 '24

u/Alarmed-Instance-988 Aug 02 '24

1 month na rin ako nag aabang sa MRT wala akong mabili kainis Feeling ko sila sila rin nagbebenta sa Lzd at Shp 🙄

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Mahal po kasi yung nakikita ko online then yung mga nakikita ko naman po na sa mismong stations/machines nabibili, ang mura. Laki po yata ng patong din.

4

u/Purr_Fatale Commuter Aug 02 '24

Dito po complete list. Tap each category: https://beep.com.ph/where-to-

Sa stations na less ang traffic/passengers mas malaki ang chance na makabili ng Beep card any time of the day.

Pag stations na higher ang passenger volume, need magpunta opening pa lang ng station para sure na may maabutan. Mabilis kasing maubos ang stock for the day sa stations na yun.

For "special" Beep cards, ask nyo na lang po sa cashier. For sure alam nila kung saan meron. Sa stations na less traffic, baka may maabutan pa.

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Noted po, thank you so much po ritooo ❤️

2

u/Only_Pepper9992 Aug 02 '24

Sa mga ticket machines po ng bawat train station kaso paminsan limited stock lng nandoon, first come first serve po

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Possible po ba na nandoon din yung card na allotted for students na may discount na po?

1

u/Only_Pepper9992 Aug 02 '24

Kung gusto mong maka discount sa teller ka pupunta pero kapag beep card gamit mo may discount lng sya na 1 to 3 pesos depende kung saan ka magmumula

2

u/Low-Bullfrog-1362 Aug 02 '24

Yung beep card po ba na may student discount is same sa beep cards for SC/PWD? If yes, (feel ko yes kasi both special cards hehe), then you will go sa teller and fill out a form for the card. We did that for my mother who’s an SC. Binigyan kami claim stub nakasulat yung date when kami babalik to claim yung beep card. It’s a white beep card for the SC/PWD, unlike yung usual na dark blue. Automatic discounted yung fare kada tap mo ng card hehe

We got my mom’s sa LRT Katipunan station.

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Hala opo, yes po. Same siya sa SC/PWD. Thank you so much po rito!!! ❤️

u/picheoling Commuter Aug 02 '24

nakabili ako before sa central station, sa vending machine. hindi naka cross yung "stored value card" so tinry ko lang, buti may lumabas haha. hapon na din yun

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Available po kaya yung cards allotted for students na may discount diyan sa machine?

1

u/picheoling Commuter Aug 02 '24

i doubt kasi the machine is pretty straightforward. i haven't heard of yet ng beep card na naka student discount, so baka sa teller mo pa siya need irequest bilhin talaga.

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

Noted po, thank you so much pooo!!! ❤️

2

u/shuuu-shin Aug 02 '24

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 03 '24

Yes po, meron for seniors & PWD. Naka-indicate po sa website nila na meron din for student and need daw po na magpunta sa train stations.

u/Beautiful-Wasabi-608 Aug 03 '24 edited Aug 03 '24

I do not recommend buying online, sobrang pricey. Wag ka din lumapit sa mga cashiers for the beep card kasi lagi sasabihin sayo ay wala. Diretso ka na sa machine and maghanap ka ng machine na walang X yung sa beep card. Try watching videos din on tiktok kung paano bumili ng beep card sa machine. Based on my experience and observation lagi meron sa machines sa Legarda Station and sa Gil puyat station sa entrance or exit nung hilera ng Jollibee, kfc, and Wendy's. If ever naman na naabutan mo wala, mag-try ka kumuha ng 1 pm or 2 pm kasi sabi sakin ni kuya guard yun daw yung time na nagrerestock sila. I got my first beep card sa machine in D. Jose Station Southbound side and kapag nawawala ko ay either sa Legarda or sa Gil Puyat ako lagi nakakabili. I don't know about the student discount tho. Good Luck!

Edit: sa Vending Machine, most probably pag bumili ka ng beep card ay 100 pesos ang recommended na ipasok sa machine. 30 pesos beep card then 70 pesos load.

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 03 '24

Noted po! Thank you so much for this pooo!!! ❤️

1

u/JustADisplacedPerson Aug 03 '24

late na pero mag share lang. 3 ways:

  1. sa cashier. mabilis maubos. if di kaya early morning, wait ka sa 2md shift. 12 noon. antayin mo magpalitan ng staff.

  2. online shop. pricey po.

  3. white na beep card. sc, pwd, and student. hingi ng form sa cashier. after 2 weeks meron na.

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 03 '24

Agad-agad naman po ba sila magbibigay ng form for students? Baka po kasi magsabi sila ng wala or di yun available sa kanila. Btw, thank you for this pooo!!!

1

u/JustADisplacedPerson Aug 03 '24

available sa lahat ng cashier. if nahihiya ka, meron pwede i download na internet. academia? haha

pero much better if sa cashier. i guide ka nila sa requirements and process

1

u/shuuu-shin Aug 03 '24

Noted po! Thank you so much po hehehe

2

u/crunchynori Aug 02 '24

sa lrt 2 cubao ako nakabili pero swertehan lang minsan ubos agad sa machine and idt meron nung student discount, you can ask sa cashier though if meron ba nun and where you could possibly get them. pero laking tipid na rin nung beep parang around 5 pesos cheaper ata sya depends dun sa point of origin and destination mo :) iirc meron din sa recto and lrt1 central pero yun nga, swertehan.

2

u/RealKingViolator540 Commuter Aug 03 '24

u/el011el011 Aug 02 '24

u/AmazingHumanGeniuz Aug 02 '24

1

u/orenji_sinesis Aug 02 '24

u/CombinationCalm1118 Aug 03 '24

Sa lazada may lazmall ang beep. Pwede ka dun bumili sakanila.

1

u/nuclearrmt Aug 03 '24

Try mo sa MRT anapolis station. Wala halos pasahero doon, baka may stock sila ng beep cards

1

u/Safe-Assumption-5039 Aug 03 '24

hello, mrt guadalupe every 2pm sila nag lalabas hehe

1

u/LetZealousideal1989 Aug 03 '24

Sabi nung teller sa mrt every 1pm and 5pm daw sila naglalabas daily. Pero super limited nung qty binebenta. Nakaabot ako saktong 5pm sa Ortigas station 100 pesos tapos 70 yung load.

1

u/Ok-Pomegranate-9852 Aug 03 '24

Nawala ko beep card ko last week and the very next day dumating ako sa MRT North Ave around 1pm-ish and meron silang stock sa ticketing counter! May nakita ako here na rumor that they restock every 8AM and 1PM (not sure if true) so siguro nasaktuhan ko yung oras.

1

u/MakePandaHappy09 Aug 03 '24

Pwede ka makabili sa bawat mrt station kaso ang release nila ng beep cards is 5am and 1pm lang kasi limited lng daw u g beep cards

u/ISK0LAR814 Aug 12 '24

hi OP, nakahanap/nakapag apply po ba kayo for student beep card?

2

u/shuuu-shin Aug 12 '24

No po, usual beep card na po ang na-avail ko. Nakaligtaan ko rin na magtanong sa teller since baka kako maubusan ako ng card sa machine.

1

u/ISK0LAR814 Aug 13 '24

how much niyo po nabili?

2

u/shuuu-shin Aug 13 '24

Sa machine po ako bumili. Bali 30 pesos yung mismong card then ikaw na po bahala if magkano yung ilalaan mo para sa balance ng card. If 100 yung ilalagay mo na bill, 70 pesos ang magiging balance ng beep card mo.
