Heads up, voters! The countdown to the May 12, 2025 National and Local Elections has begun—and this year, casting your vote just got a whole lot easier.
In partnership with the Commission on Elections (COMELEC), SM Supermalls is proud to roll out the Mall Voting Program (MVP) in 20 select SM malls nationwide, bringing democracy closer to home—literally.
Gone are the days of sweltering heat and overcrowded school gyms. This May 12, eligible voters assigned to MVP locations can head to their designated SM mall to vote in a secure, accessible, and air-conditioned environment. Whether you’re a busy parent, a working professional, or a senior citizen looking for comfort and ease, the MVP is designed to improve your voting experience—one step (or escalator ride) at a time.
Who Can Vote in the Mall?
Only voters whose precincts were officially transferred to a mall. This is indicated in the final list from COMELEC.
How Can I Confirm If I Vote in a Mall?
Check any of the following:
• Your Voter Information Sheet (VIS)
• Mall posters or tarps
• Barangay caravans or your local COMELEC office
Voting Hours at the Mall:
• 5:00 AM – 7:00 AM — Priority: Seniors, PWDs, Pregnant voters
• 7:00 AM – 7:00 PM — Regular voting hours
Can I Bring Someone to Help Me Vote?
Yes, a relative (up to 4th degree) or Electoral Board member may assist.
Can My Companion Vote at the Mall Too?
Only if their precinct was also officially transferred to the same mall.
Here’s a list of the participating SM Supermalls where you can conveniently vote this coming May 12:

From Luzon to Mindanao, SM Supermalls is proud to open its doors—rent-free—for the benefit of Filipino voters. And don’t worry, COMELEC’s got the backend handled: trained election personnel, full compliance with electoral rules, and tight coordination for logistics and security.
Why mall voting works
The goal? A smoother, more inclusive voting experience—especially for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), senior citizens, and pregnant voters. Think ramps, elevators, comfortable seating, and spacious voting areas—all in a familiar and accessible setting.
“We believe democracy should be inclusive, convenient, and secure,” shared Junias Eusebio, Vice President for Mall Operations at SM Supermalls. “By offering our malls as voting venues, we’re not just making it easier to vote—we’re helping empower every Filipino to make their voice heard.”
Democracy meets convenience
This isn’t SM’s first time teaming up with government agencies. Through the SM Government Service Express (GSE), select SM malls already offer one-stop access to services like ID processing, permits, and more. The MVP is yet another way SM Supermalls is stepping up to serve the public in meaningful ways.
Plan ahead
Eligible for mall voting? Expect an official advisory from COMELEC about your assigned voting venue. Then, on May 12, head to your designated SM mall, bring a valid ID, and vote with ease.
Let’s all do our part—vote smart, vote safe, and vote comfortably.
