SANTA PRAXEDES, Cagayan – The residents of this unbanked municipality now have access to banking services, with the installation of a new Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) ATM at the Municipal Gymnasium along the Pan-Philippine Highway.

“With the installation of this new ATM, the people of Santa Praxedes will save a lot of time, money, and effort. We are grateful to LANDBANK for granting us access to their services with this ATM,” said Santa Praxedes Mayor Esterlina A. Aguinaldo.

Mayor Aguinaldo led the LANDBANK ATM inauguration on 27 September 2022 together with Vice Mayor Rene D. Estabillo, and LANDBANK Sanchez Mira Branch Head Menalyn Q. Rabaino, alongside Sangguniang Bayan members and other LGU partners.

“LANDBANK continues to expand its reach to deliver banking services where it is most needed. As we promote financial inclusion, we also look forward to helping advance economic activity in Santa Praxedes,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Borromeo.

The LANDBANK ATM will service all 10 barangays of Santa Praxedes in the northern part of the Province of Cagayan.

The strategic location of the LANDBANK ATM will benefit government employees and private customers, who no longer need to wait in long queues and travel to other towns for their cash requirements.

The LANDBANK touchpoint will also support the convenient payout for about 5,000 combined beneficiaries under the Conditional and Unconditional Cash Transfer (CCT/UCT) and Social Pension Programs of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).
