Innovating Sustainable Mobility: Dragonpay Partners with Gogoro Philippines for Convenient Payments

In a strategic alliance poised to shape the future of sustainable transportation, Dragonpay, a trailblazer in alternative payments in the Philippines, has joined forces with Gogoro Philippines, a pioneering force in revolutionizing electric vehicles. Serving as Gogoro’s official payments partner, Dragonpay strengthens the commitment to streamline transactions and drive the adoption of eco-friendly transportation solutions.

Gogoro Philippines, a collaboration between Globe’s 917Ventures Inc., Ayala Corporation, and Gogoro Taiwan, aims to tackle commuter challenges, offer a clean transport alternative, and deliver an exceptional riding experience for Filipinos.

Bernie Llamzon, President and CEO of Gogoro Philippines, stated, “At Gogoro Philippines, our mission is to empower cities with accessible sustainable mobility solutions. Embracing eco-friendly transportation choices is pivotal for shaping a sustainable future in the Philippines.”

Gogoro’s Smartscooters® utilize the innovative battery-swapping platform, allowing users to seamlessly exchange depleted batteries for fully charged ones within seconds, a significant milestone in the electric vehicle industry.

    The Side Tripper

    “Make sure you don’t take any side trips,” warns Schumler, from a phrase in the 1993 American film Swing Kids. If you are someone who does not have time to lose, then it is better for you to stick to your main agenda, because there is something about side tripping that submerges the soul in experiences that sometimes make you hope that time would stand still, as the experiences they bring can be more impactful than the main trip itself. It is that free flowing agenda, an unexpected sleepover or a detour that has unintentionally brought pleasant surprises. You can live without it, like you can eat a cake without its icing, but your journey may not be as meaningful. If travel is the ‘best medicine for the heart’,* then for me, side trips are secret ingredients to the most memorable travels and other events that can happen in between or off the main route of one’s itineraries. Welcome to Side Tripper, a collection of photographs and blogs about the many side trip adventures of our family and friends. *Source: The Global Commission on Aging and Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies, in partnership with the U.S. Travel Association (Los Angeles Times, December 17, 2013 by Chris Erskine)
