On December 12, 2019, the Pag-IBIG fund began a program called Virtual Pag-IBIG to make its services available to their members around the clock, responding to President Rodrigo Duterte’s call to “make the services of the government responsive to the demands of the people by employing technology.”
There was a time when you had to go to the nearby Pag-IBIG office for everything, like simple questions, cashwagon cash loan, checking your account, and so on. Virtual Pag-IBIG moves all of its services online so that people can use them more quickly and easily.
What Exactly is the Virtual Pag-IBIG?
You may access the Virtual Pag-IBIG Fund from any internet-connected device, including smartphones, thanks to Pag-dedication IBIGs to member convenience.
It also provides live chat help with a Lingkod Pag-IBIG customer service to answer queries or fix concerns.

Is it Worth Signing up for Virtual Pag-IBIG?
The main reason why Virtual Pag-IBIG was created was to cut down on the amount of time and effort needed to deal with this government entity. It’s all a part of the government’s plan to make using their services simpler for the general public. Now that we’ve demonstrated that the internet allows for quicker and more efficient processes, there’s no turning back to the way things were before the epidemic.
If you prefer the traditional method, you can still get their services at the counter. There are certain services, like applying for a mortgage, that are best handled in person. Due to the complexity of such large loans, it is recommended that they be processed in person at the counter.
