Having your SSS pension credited directly to your account removes the guesswork, and the right setup makes every disbursement day simpler.
For retirees seeking a reliable way to receive their monthly benefit, Metrobank is a practical choice as an SSS bank. As an authorized pension disbursement partner of the Social Security System, Metrobank credits pensioners' monthly benefits directly to a dedicated account—no need to visit an SSS office or queue on disbursement day.
Here is a step-by-step guide to getting started.
Having your pension credited to an SSS savings account gives you flexible access to your funds through branches, ATMs, and online banking. It also creates a clear record of every disbursement—useful for tracking your pension history and for following up on any discrepancies.
Visit your nearest Metrobank branch to open an account for SSS pension disbursement. Bring a valid government-issued ID and any SSS-related documents you have. Branch staff can provide the complete list of requirements.
Once your enrollment is confirmed, your monthly benefit will be credited to your Metrobank account on SSS's scheduled disbursement dates.
You can access your funds through Metrobank's branch network, ATMs, Metrobank Online, and the Metrobank App. If your pension is not credited on the expected date, contact Metrobank or SSS directly, with your enrollment records ready.
Metrobank is an accredited bank for SSS pensions, meaning it meets SSS requirements for pension disbursement. Its SSS Pensioner Savings Account is designed for retirees receiving their monthly SSS benefit.
