Good news for SSS members!
You may no longer need to wait several weeks to receive your new MySSS Card.
The Social Security System (SSS) and Asia United Bank (AUB) have introduced instant issuance kiosks where qualified members can print and claim their MySSS Cards in minutes.
However, the fast printing service is available only after completing the required application and account verification.
Here is how to prepare before visiting a kiosk.
What Is the New MySSS Card?
The MySSS Card replaces the old Unified Multi-Purpose Identification (UMID) card for new applications.
It serves two main purposes:
- An official SSS identification card
- A banking card linked to an account for receiving SSS benefits, pensions, and loan proceeds
The card uses an EMV chip for security and can also support banking transactions.
For AUB customers, the card is connected to HelloMoney, the bank’s digital financial service.
Who Can Apply for a MySSS Card?
According to SSS, qualified applicants include members, pensioners, individual claimants, and representative payees.
Applicants must meet these requirements:
- Have a permanent SSS number.
- Be registered on the My.SSS online portal.
- Have updated personal information, including a Philippine address, mobile number, and email.
- Be registered with the Philippine National ID system.
Your name and date of birth must match your SSS and National ID records.
Any differences should be corrected before applying.
Step 1: Complete Your Online MySSS Application
Before visiting an AUB kiosk, you must complete the SSS online application.
- Visit www.sss.gov.ph.
- Log in to your My.SSS account.
- Select MySSS Card under the Services menu.
- Check and confirm your personal information.
- Complete the National ID identity verification.
- Choose AUB as your partner bank, when available.
- Read and accept the required consent forms.
- Save your confirmation and follow the bank’s instructions.
You may also need to complete HelloMoney registration and verification before your card can be issued.
Step 2: Visit a Participating AUB Kiosk
Once your application and banking requirements are approved, check the available instant issuance locations.
AUB has introduced kiosks that allow approved members to print and receive their cards without waiting for regular delivery.
Follow the instructions provided by AUB and present any required verification details.
The five-minute issuance claim refers to the quick card-printing process, not the entire application and approval process.
Actual processing time may vary.
How Much Does the MySSS Card Cost?
The MySSS Card powered by AUB HelloMoney costs Php 250 as a one-time card fee.
AUB says its card has:
- No annual fee
- No monthly maintaining balance
- No dormancy fee
Other banking transaction charges may still apply depending on the service used.
Where Can You Get Your MySSS Card?
Card issuance is available through participating AUB locations and designated instant issuance kiosks.
Before traveling, check the official AUB MySSS Card information page for the latest participating locations and application instructions.
Not every SSS branch or AUB branch necessarily offers instant printing.
