Philippines’ Securities and Exchange Commission Introduces Digital Payments Portal for Securely Paying Registration Fees The Philippines’ Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has introduced its online payment system for firms so they can easily pay their registration fees. The new SEC Payment Portal is a web-based system that can accept payment for registrations, transaction fees, and penalties by simply using debit or credit cards, digital wallets and other cashless payment methods. In order to make payments via the portal, users must enter the reference number provided in the Payment Assessment Form that has been issued by the nation’s SEC, select an appropriate payment option, and then provide the required details.
