Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ENDS?
The E-commerce National Delivery Solution (ENDS) is a registration portal for compliant businesses and delivery services to operate during the curfew hours.

How does the ENDS work?

Approval for vendors and businesses are done via the Ministry of Local Government, through the respective municipalities.
Drivers are approved by the Ministry of Transport and Mining through the Transport Authority.
Once approval is granted, a unique QR Code will be sent to the e-mail address used in the sign-up process. This code can be stored digitally or printed.
