Riding the Light Rail Transit Line 2 (LRT-2), otherwise known as the Megatren or the Purple Line, in Metro Manila requires going through the ticketing process using the ticket vending machines (TVMs) stationed at the stations. It might seem daunting at first since the tellers and ticket counters have been removed, but these machines are actually meant to streamline the ticketing process and offer convenience to commuters.
Buying tickets from TVMs in LRT-2 stations is a straightforward process that involves selecting the desired ticket type, choosing the destination from a clear display, and completing the payment transaction. This method offers efficiency and convenience to passengers, allowing them to quickly purchase tickets without the need for queuing at ticket counters. Additionally, it minimizes physical contact and promotes a more seamless travel experience for commuters. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll walk you through the process of buying tickets at LRT-2 stations using the Ticket Vending Machine (TVM).
Installed at Light Rail Transit (LRT) Line 2 stations, Ticket Vending Machines (TVMs) are self-serving kiosks that dispense LRT-2 tickets, both Single Journey Tickets and Stored Value Cards. These machines represent a modernization initiative aimed at streamlining ticket purchases for commuters through automated processes. This transition also entails upgrading from the old magnetic stripe tickets to contactless smart cards equipped with a microchip. As one of the pioneers in adopting this technology nationwide, LRT-2 aims to minimize, if not eliminate, the reliance on manual transactions at ticket counters, thereby enhancing overall efficiency and convenience for passengers.
AF Payments Incorporated has upgraded and recalibrated the TVMs on the Purple Line to accept a variety of coins and bills, while also dispensing single journey and stored value tickets for commuters. This enhancement aims to provide passengers with efficient, secure, and hassle-free ticketing services. Additionally, the upgrade enables commuters to conveniently use newly minted coins for ticket purchases, enhancing their overall travel experience within the public transportation network.

Step-by-Step Guide to Buying Tickets at LRT-2 Using the TVMs
In 2020, the Light Rail Transit Authority (LRTA) discontinued ticket sales through station tellers, as directed by the Department of Transportation (DOTr), transitioning exclusively to Ticket Vending Machines (TVMs). Despite this shift, many individuals still find navigating these machines challenging. To address this, we’ve created a comprehensive guide to assist passengers in purchasing tickets at LRT-2 stations via TVMs.
Step 1. Go to the TVMs

Upon reaching the station, head to the area with the TVMs and wait for your turn. Make sure to prepare bills and coins and some spare for tour transactions. Some TVMs do not have available types of tickets so make sure to check first before queuing.
Step 2. Choose Your Ticket Type

When you approach the TVM, you’ll be presented with various options. If you don’t have a Beep card yet, opt for the “Single Journey Ticket.” As the name suggests, this is a one-time-use ticket that you’ll return at your destination. Alternatively, if you have a Beep card, you can use the TVM to load credit onto it by choosing the option for Stored Value Ticket.
Step 3. Select Your Destination

On the TVM screen, you’ll see a list of stations represented by blue dots. The yellow dot indicates your current station. Tap on the blue dot corresponding to your destination station. Once selected, the dot will change to red, confirming your choice. Finally, tap the “Confirm” button to proceed.
Step 4. Payment Process

The TVM will display the amount you need to pay for your ticket. Insert the required amount of money into the machine. Be prepared for the possibility that certain bill denominations may be rejected. It’s a good idea to have alternative bills or coins ready. Wait for the TVM to detect and read the bill you’ve inserted.
Step 5. Completion and Receipt

Once the payment process is complete, the TVM will dispense your ticket and any change due. If you’d like a receipt, simply click on the “Receipt” button. If not, click “OK” to finish the transaction.
Step 6. Language Options
The TVM offers both English and Tagalog language options for users’ convenience. While Tagalog is available for those who prefer it, the default language is English. It’s worth noting that English is widely understood and spoken by the majority of Filipinos, so you may find it easier to navigate the TVM in English.
Step 7. Tap Your Way in and Proceed to the Boarding Area
Once you have secured your ticket, you may now tap your card on the machines and then walk through the turnstile to the boarding area and wait for the next train.
By following these simple steps, you can easily purchase tickets at LRT-2 using the Ticket Vending Machine.
Fares
Depending on where you are going, the price of Single Journey Tickets range from P13 to P35. Stored Value Tickets, on the other hand, are reloadable cards sold for P30. It requires a minimum load of P14 and is good for up to four years of use.

Re-stamping of chassis number refers to the process of stamping the chassis number of motor vehicles with defaced chassis numbers. It is usually done by the Land Transportation Office (LTO) or its accredited manufacturer or rebuilder, but not before the registered owner of the motor vehicle (MV) subject for re-stamping has acquired all the requirements and authorization necessary for the procedure. After all, the LTO, as the regulatory body, needs to confirm that the vehicle and its parts are the MV’s original components by matching it with the unique identifiers embedded in the VIN which also includes serial numbers to ensure that no parts of a certain car has been involved in anything shady. Hence, the need for Certificate of Re-stamping from the Philippine National Police – Highway Patrol Group (PNP-HPG).
In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to secure a Certificate of Re-stamping from the PNP-HPG in order to be able to secure the authorization you need to have the chassis number re-stamped, regardless if it is for vehicles of which the chassis number is unreadable due to corrosion or one which has been imported from a region that does not require the vehicle identification number (VIN) being stamped in the chassis/frame.
A Certificate of Re-stamping refers to the document issued by the PNP-HPG to the registered MV owner or his/her authorized representative or any applicant for re-stamping. The certification is issued upon request, after the requesting party submits or comply with the documentary requirements necessary in filing of alarm. Its issuance is subject to the approval of the HPG Motor Vehicle Clearing Committee (MVCC) and the PNP-HPG Director and it usually follows actual chassis re-stamping procedures to ensure that the chassis number, also known as the vehicle identification number (VIN) or frame number, is visible and readable.
The Certificate of Re-stamping is a document that ensures that the LTO as well as the Duty Inspector in charge of the MV’s Motor Vehicle Inspection Report (MVIR) will see that any stenciling or macro-etching procedure done on the subject MV is completed by LTO-accredited manufacturer or rebuilder legally.
Re-stamping of Tampered, Defaced or Corroded Engine and Chassis Numbers of Motor Vehicles
There are two reasons why one would need to secure a certificate of re-stamping: One, when re-stamping recovered stolen motor vehicles with tampering, and two, for re-stamping of motor vehicles with no tampering.
Re-stamping of Recovered Stolen/Carnapped Motor Vehicle with Tampering
Motor vehicles with tampered engine and/or chassis numbers whose identities are subsequently identified through expert findings of the PNP Crime Laboratory Group or any equivalent office of other law enforcement agencies should be re-stamped in order to restore their original identities. The recovered Motor Vehicles with tampered engine and/or chassis number included the Vehicle Information Management System (VIMS) must first apply for lifting of the alarm prior to the application for Re-stamping.
Re-stamping of Motor Vehicles with no Tampering (Re-stamping as a Result of Natural Deterioration)
Motor Vehicles with corroded and unreadable engine and/or chassis numbers as a result of their ordinary wear and tear, acts of nature, and other circumstances, incidents, or accidents that cause their serial numbers to be freckled and/or tarnished must also apply for re-stamping to reinstate their original identities.
Benefits of Securing a Certificate of Re-Stamping
The actual re-stamping of chassis numbers actually comes with certain benefits, sure. But the acquisition of a certificate of re-stamping ensures that the subject MV will have:
Easier renewal of vehicle registration
A legal document showing the Clear and visible VIN for easier MV verification
Visible chassis number for checking for apprehensions and alarm
Clean MVIR
Better chassis readability for verification of public authorities purposes
Who Needs to Request for a Certificate of Re-Stamping
The following people are the only ones who are eligible to or may need to request for and acquire a Certificate of Lifting of Alarm:
