Over 137,700 delivery service riders in Metro Manila will receive their P5,000 cash relief assistance from the government on March 26, 27, and 30, 2026 to help them cope with the recent surges in pump prices.

Eligible deliver service riders should bring their original driver’s license and a photocopy of their driver’s license on their scheduled payout date.

The DSWD said there will be a special payout schedule for those who were not yet included in the initial list. Delivery service riders whose names were not in the initial list of beneficiaries were advised to coordinate with the LTFRB for the verification process.

Meanwhile, the LTFRB urged delivery service riders claiming their cash relief aid not to bring their respective vehicles to avoid traffic build-up at payout sites.

Earlier, the DSWD said the distribution of cash relief to transport workers outside of Metro Manila will begin after the Holy Week. — JMA, GMA Integrated News
