SSS to bring digital MySSS Card, services to eGovPH

QUEZON CITY — The Social Security System (SSS) is supporting the government’s push for more connected and accessible public services by bringing the MySSS Card’s digital identification feature and selected member services to the eGovPH superapp.
The integration will allow SSS members to access their digital identification and check important membership information through a single government platform, reducing the need to switch between applications or visit physical offices for basic inquiries.
The SSS and the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) signed a data-sharing agreement on Oct. 21, 2026, in Quezon City to facilitate the integration.
The agreement was signed by DICT Secretary Robert Joseph M. de Claro and SSS President and Chief Executive Officer Victor Alfonso A. Limlingan.
The partnership comes shortly after de Claro’s appointment as DICT secretary, following his tenure as SSS president and chief executive officer, and strengthens collaboration between the two agencies.
“This partnership marks a major step in making SSS services more accessible and convenient for our members. By integrating the digital MySSS Card and key services into the eGovPH superapp, we are bringing social security closer to every Filipino—right at their fingertips,” Limlingan said.
Once integrated, members will be able to access the front-facing digital representation of their MySSS Card as one of the IDs available through the eGovPH superapp.
They will also be able to view their contribution history, total number of contributions, latest membership type, and most recent employer information.
These services will help members check whether their contributions have been posted and verify their membership and employer information through a shared government platform.
The MySSS Card, launched in October 2025, replaced the Unified Multi-Purpose Identification (UMID) card as the SSS’ official functional identification card.
The physical card also functions as a bank-linked debit card, allowing members to receive SSS benefits, loans, and other proceeds through an account with a partner bank.
Limlingan emphasized that the integration reflects the SSS’ commitment to digital transformation and member convenience.
“Our members should not have to visit multiple offices or use multiple applications just to access basic services. Through eGovPH superapp, we are making it easier for Filipinos to check their contributions, verify their membership status, and access their MySSS Card—all in one place,” he said.
The move is part of the government’s broader digital transformation agenda, which seeks to connect services across agencies through a shared digital platform.
Developed by the DICT, the eGovPH superapp serves as a centralized gateway to government services, allowing users to access transactions and digital services from participating agencies through a single application.
DICT and SSS said the partnership is also intended to expand access to social protection for digital workers, including freelancers and online professionals, by making SSS services easier to find and use online.
The initiative is particularly relevant to self-employed and freelance workers who must manage their own SSS membership and contribution payments to maintain access to social security benefits.
While members can already access their membership and contribution records through the MySSS mobile app, the integration will provide another convenient way to view these records, together with the MySSS Card’s digital ID feature, alongside other government services.
Limlingan said the agreement signals that the SSS will be among the government agencies providing services through the eGovPH superapp, supporting the administration’s goal of integrating government services into the platform.
“We are proud to be part of this national effort to unify government services. The SSS remains committed to leveraging technology to deliver faster, more secure, and more member-centered service,” Limlingan said.
