Franchise Overview

If you're looking for a passive, technology-driven business with zero manpower costs, you'll love TouchPay. This automated financial service concept functions as a reliable, round-the-clock digital payment collector that manages cash and digital transactions autonomously.

By deploying compact, self-service automated payment machines in highly frequented areas, the franchise eliminates standard merchant operational hassles. Business owners can tap into a recurring revenue stream generated from processing utility bills, government contributions, and digital wallet top-ups without ever managing floor staff or extensive inventory.

About TouchPay

TouchPay operates as a highly specialized financial service network utilizing standalone electronic terminals called Automated Payment Machines. Developed and managed by Manila Express Payment System, Inc., the brand introduced the concept of digital cash collection kiosks across the Philippines to make bill payments simple and accessible. The machines are designed to integrate seamlessly into minimal commercial real estate, demanding under one square meter of physical floor space. Each terminal relies on encrypted transmission software to process and credit cash-based transactions directly to major utilities, telcos, and digital banking billers in real-time.

The operational structure of the franchise is built purely on automation and physical security features. Each physical terminal is configured with a heavy-duty vault mechanism and specialized bill acceptors capable of storing cash collections securely between maintenance collections. Franchise agents or investors do not need to oversee day-to-day transaction processing or hire customer support personnel. The franchisor retains centralized responsibility for server maintenance, software updates, and merchant platform integrations, while providing local franchise owners with real-time digital dashboards to track daily volume performance and transaction commissions remotely.

Positioned within strategic retail footprints, the terminals generate constant foot traffic by serving underbanked consumers who rely heavily on cash payment channels. The electronic terminal accommodates over seventy partner billers, including top digital wallet ecosystems, national power utilities, and government contribution programs. Franchisees generate revenue directly through transaction convenience fees and volume commissions, creating a passive business model. Ideal location placement includes highly visible local commercial spaces such as convenience stores, transport hubs, shopping malls, and gas stations where dependable electricity and standard cellular reception are accessible.
