Servicio also offers the cash-in of digital wallets (Gcash, PayMaya, Grab Pay), top up of RFID accounts both for Easytrip and Autosweep, top up of reloadable bank cards like Metrobank and BPI and enabling mobile payments are added to the services.  

“All these transformations created a smoother and more convenient shopping experience for customers of Servicio, as we commit to naturally progress,” says Nieva. “We are SM and we are here to serve.”

It began twenty-five years ago, when the SM Department Store – as it was then known - began offering services that went beyond shopping.  At the store’s Customer Service counters, shoppers could avail Forex services to exchange their currencies; and pay their bills for utilities, telcos and credit card companies.  

As SM grew, its bills payment service expanded to include government agencies like SSS and Pag-ibig payment for monthly dues, fees and contributions.  It became the first and only private partner of the Philippine Statistics Authority become a processing center for civil registry certificates, birth, marriage, to death and CENOMAR; and through its partnership with Philhealth, became a processing center for member registration, premium payment, issuance of I-Philhealth Card.  It also accepts now payments for LTO license renewals and NBI renewals.

SM also partnered with all of the major electric, water and cable providers in major cities and municipalities nationwide.
