The Human Settlements Adjudication Commission (HSAC), officially launched its online payment system during its 4th Founding Anniversary last February 14, 2023.
The system which is called UPay is a partnership between HSAC and UnionBank of the Philippines to provide an alternative channel of payment of legal fees and other collections, in addition to the usual manual channels of the Commission.
HSAC clients who opt to pay their legals fees through UPay are advised to visit the HSAC Fees Calculator at https://hsac.gov.pg/calculator and choose the Office or Regional Adjudication Branch where the pleading or request will be filed and complete the online form.
Upon proceeding to pay, clients will be redirected to the UPay white-label page where they can conveniently choose from three payment facilities: UnionBank Online, Bank or E-Wallet Transfer via Instapay and Bank Transfer via PCHC PayGate (PesoNet), subject to a convenience fee and transaction limits.
| Payment Facility | Convenience Fee | Transaction Limit |
| UnionBank Online | Php 10.00 | None |
| InstaPay | Php 15.00 | Php 50,000.00 |
| PCHC PayGate (PesoNet) | Php 25.00 | None |
UPay is one of HSAC’s digital transformation program. Through this initiative, it is committed to provide a more efficient and citizen-centered services.
