Championing the era of open banking

Salarium Launches Payroll Software for Big Businesses

Salarium, one of the country's leading providers of intelligent technological business solutions, launches the latest version of its payroll processing software this September.

While Salarium already serves numerous small to medium enterprises (SMEs), the update is a complete overhaul that will bring a new level of enterprise-grade payroll to address the requirements of bigger businesses in the Philippines.


Salaroum Chief Executive Officer Judah Hirsch
"We wanted to provide large Philippine enterprises with a highly customizable payroll solution that is ideal for solutions integrators," said Salarium founder and Chief Executive Officer Judah Hirsch. 

"Company's needs vary on a case-to-case basis, so we decided to shift to a modular microservices-based architecture. This makes Salarium ideal for integrating into an existing structure or system, and it allows us to create highly customizable technological solutions for our clients," Hirsch revealed.




A highly adaptable and business-centric  software

The biggest change from previous iterations is that instead of distributing the software as a single bundle of services, Salarium now offers each service as an individual module so that large businesses need not be concerned about the difficulty of integrating the software because they can choose the specific solutions that meet their needs.




Big businesses need big solutions

Version 3.0’s modular setup is a response to the demand for scalable technological solutions to process-heavy administrative tasks. As a company grows, scalability becomes essential to maintaining the quality and reliability of its services.

Salarium’s new modules introduce independent scalability. Since services are assigned specific teams to develop them individually, deployment is much quicker, and improvements are made with greater attention to detail.


A seamless user experience

Additionally, the new update has transformed Salarium into a powerful and highly customizable asset that guarantees a scalable management system, versatile timekeeping, sophisticated payroll disbursement and convenient handling of government reports. 

Salarium has also completely redesigned its user interface to make it easier to access and navigate for both administrators and employees. 





Take more control over security and data privacy

Potential risk is always directly proportional to company size, especially when it comes to maintaining a secure hold over sensitive information. In the case of larger businesses, the need to tighten security around the personal data of employees only increases the more people they employ. 

The update takes a state-of-the-art approach that not only covers monitoring user activity and setting advanced permission controls, it also provides an extra measure of security that is inherent to its new structure.




Customer support that continues 24/7

The largest businesses in the Philippines are heavily tied-in with the global market, rendering services and providing goods to consumers all over the world. Continuous and specialized customer support that never sleeps is one of Salarium’s competitive edges. Clients can reach Salarium at any time, through various channels and with any query so that any potential disruption of service is avoided. 

Salarium wants to alleviate the administrative burden brought on by repetitive tasks so that people can focus their attention on developing skills that maximize their potential. 

The new update further decreases the administrative burden on human resources in the Philippines, allowing HR to focus on cultivating manpower and have a higher impact on company productivity.

Transcom Opens New Site at The Ayala 30th

Transcom (Transcom Worldwide AB), a Swedish-owned BPO company, officially opened a 2-floor site at The 30th Corporate Center in Pasig City last August 27. The inauguration ceremony was led by Mark Lyndsell, Transcom's CEO for the Global English Region, along with Lennart Jansson, Swedish Deputy Head of Mission, and James Jung, President of Samsung Electronics Philippines Corporation ( SEPCO).

Located on the 18th and 19th floor of the Ayala 30th shopping and business center along Meralco Avenue, the site is home to at least 1,000 employees serving customers in North America and Asia Pacific.

"We believe that opening this site will reposition us in a highly-competitive BPO landscape in the Philippines and increase our attractiveness to our clients. On top of that, the motivation for the space is to create an amazing environment for our awesome people that truly reflects our core values as an organization which, of course, complements the world class brands we support," according to Mark Lyndsell.




With a mix of smart, flexible, warm, and welcoming design elements, Transcom's new site showcases a design upgrade that supports the organizational transformation it began two years ago as well as the brand refresh it launched in early 2019.

"We wanted a design that would level up our own standard for designing and building our facilities. With this new site, we have actually raised the bar higher in defining our organizational brand as we invest in new spaces moving forward," Lyndsell said.

Paolo Xavier Ilano, an employee who has been with Transcom for seven years and who is a Transcom TAYO Ambassador considers the site as a breath of fresh air. "The view from my office window is as stunning as the interior design inside and outside the Production Floor," he shared

As part of a standard set of amenities across Transcom's workspaces, the site also houses a child care area, gym, sleeping quarters and shower rooms, a pharmacy operated by Generika Drugstore and a café operated by Figaro Coffee




Lyndsell also highlighted that compared to other Transcom sites in Manila and in the Visayas, there are more breakout areas and open spaces at The 30th Corporate Center site. 



"We have lounges, thinking pods and collaboration areas where our employees can simply relax, engage with colleagues, and generate or exchange ideas. We want the amenities to help us convey the message that we truly care for our people," he added.

By the 4th quarter of 2019, Transcom will start growing the site's employee headcount through the expansion of its business in Awesome OS, the Davao-based customer care company it acquired in August 2018. The expansion will mark Awesome OS's  maiden operation in Metro Manila.

Apart from the 30th Corporate Center site, Transcom maintains its regional headquarters site in the Boni area in Mandaluyong and an operations site in Pasig-Tiendesitas. In the Visayas, it operates in the cities of Bacolod and Iloilo. Transcom in the Philippines has about 11,500 employees.

Adorable twins “Upin & Ipin” embark on new mystical adventure in latest full-length film

If you have kids and have a Disney channel on TV at home, most probably you already stumbled on one of the daily episodes of "Upin & Ipin." 

Well, there is a good news for you and your kids as "Upin & Ipin: The Lone Gibbon Kris" is set to be screened this August 28 in Philippine cinemas.





"Upin & Ipin: The Lone Gibbon Kris" is tagged as the most expensive Malaysian film in history reaching almost RM 20 million ($4.84 million USD) and roughly took five years for the entire production crew to finish this animated sequel. Executive producer Burhanuddin Radzi ensures that their latest masterpiece could follow the same quality of the international animated films and also elevate the standards of Malaysia's animation industry.

Center of Innovation rises in Valenzuela OLFU unveils RISE Tower

Progress is spurred by ideas born out of creativity, breaking beyond the confines of what is deemed as conventional. To continually develop, society needs more innovative minds – thinkers who refuse to stagnate, and citizens who act towards advancement. 



Distinguished guests join the OLFU Administrators in the Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony. L-R: OLFU Executive Vice President Don August O. Santos; University President, Dr. Caroline Marian S. Enriquez; Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of Kalookan, Most Rev. Deogracias S. Iñiguez, Jr., D.D.; CHED Commissioner Aldrin Darilag; Senator Win Gatchalian; Valenzuela City Mayor Rex Gatchalian; Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Dr. Yvonne S. Guevara; Fatima University Medical Center President, Dr. Vicente O. Santos. 

In “improving man as man”,  believes that innovation powers the nation; hence its dedication to creating modern, empowering spaces for the promising learners and future visionaries. 

Very recently, OLFU once again affirmed its commitment through the blessing and inauguration of the Research, Innovation, Science and Enterprise Tower, better known as the RISE Tower. Situated in Marulas, Valenzuela City, the RISE is a highly advanced facility housing simulation laboratories and collaborative areas with cutting-edge equipment and technologies. 

“This facility was envisioned to serve as an integrated academic space where theories taught in the four walls of the classroom will be experienced and put into play”, University President Dr. Caroline Marian S. Enriquez said. Notably, the eight-story building features the Clinical Simulation Center furnished with training units and hi-fi manikins that teach pediatric care, obstetrics care, intensive care, surgical procedures, IV therapy and more; the Air Fatima, a mock airplane cabin; the Seven on the 6th, a mock hotel; and the Robotics Center, among others. 

Another highlight is the Learning Commons which is a series of learning spaces for study, research, collaboration and discussion, as well as a repository of print and digital resources. Some of its amenities are the amphitheater-styled Lecture Hall, a spacious Reading Area, and Discussion Rooms. It is also home to the Research Development and Innovation Center, the University’s capital for new discoveries. 

“We hope to build up creative and innovative thinking, encourage interactive discussions, and at the same time, develop confidence and professionalism in our students”, added Dr. Enriquez. 

Several distinguished guests graced the event, including Senator Sherwin “Win” Gatchalian; Valenzuela City officials, Mayor Rexlon “Rex” Gatchalian, Vice Mayor Lorena “Lorie” Natividad-Borja, District 1 Congressman Weslie “Wes” Gatchalian; Commission on Higher Education (CHED) Commissioner Aldrin Darilag, and CHED NCR Regional Director IV, Dr. Virginia Akiate. Senator Gatchalian applauded the facility’s ability to provide “hands-on experience”, counting it as “one of the most advanced facilities in the entire country”. 

He likewise acknowledged how the City of Valenzuela and OLFU are historically intertwined since the school’s founding in 1967. “As Fatima progresses, develops, and expands, so does Valenzuela”, he said. 


About OLFU: Starting as a 25-bed hospital in 1967 in the City of Valenzuela, OLFU evolved to become the esteemed, progressive institution that it is now – an ISO 9001:2015 Certified university known as the “Home of the Topnotchers” owing to its standing in licensure examinations, year-on-year. With over 50 years of perpetuating its quality brand of education, it has also established a presence in Quezon City, Pampanga, Antipolo, Nueva Ecija, and recently, Laguna. 

The RISE Tower is located on Fatima Avenue corner MacArthur Highway, Marulas, Valenzuela City, Metro Manila.

Nadine Lustre is new GCash endorser

The country’s favorite young artist and model Nadine Lustre is the new face of the Philippines’ leading mobile wallet, GCash.

The multi-awarded actress headlines GCash’s “What Can’t You Do?” campaign to power the dreams of young adults who constantly want to do more, to expand possibilities, and to achieve beyond their own expectations.

“Nadine is the perfect fit for GCash because she represents the true aspirations of young adults and is at that point in her life where taking charge of your finances is becoming more important. She shows how young adults can be independent and take charge of their own lives, and with the help of GCash, “What Can’t You Do?” means so much more,” Chris Manguera, Chief Marketing Officer at Mynt, which runs GCash, said.

After starting out as a singer in a pop band, Lustre evolved to become a much-sought-after actress on TV, with her primetime hits "On The Wings of Love" (2015) and "Till I Met You" (2016).

The 25-year-old actress has fared as well on the big screen, winning the Best Actress awards from Young Critics Circle, FAMAS Awards and the Gawad Urian Awards in 2019 for hit movie, “Never Not Love You.” Her latest film, “Indak,” a dance musical movie, shows Lustre’s flexibility as an actress. 

Early this year, one of world’s biggest fast fashion brands, H&M, launched Lustre as its first Filipino ambassador. The actress, named by a top magazine as Sexiest Woman in 2017, has her own line of swimwear with H&M. 

“She has built her brand and can create the image of a lifestyle that everyone will want to follow. We hope for that to happen with GCash as well,” Manguera said. “We also want to activate her big fan base to help spread the word of financial inclusion and empowerment.”

Lustre, who was voted Artist of the Year and Favorite Female Artist at the Myx Music Awards 2019, is a social media savant who has 6.8 million followers on Instagram.



GCash’s “What Can’t You Do?” campaign pushes the limits of what mobile phones can do for young adults with its innovative financial services accessible through mobile. With over 50,000 partner merchants and 20 million users, GCash remains the country’s leading mobile wallet.

Like Lustre, who has won over the entire country and has kept everyone’s attention throughout the years by relentlessly adapting to change, GCash continues to evolve not just as digital platform but as a lifestyle brand.
