Who Stands to Benefit?
Designed with inclusivity in mind, the GCash Card aims to cater to all Filipinos, especially those who don’t possess bank accounts or the standard set of documents typically needed for traditional card applications. This makes it a perfect fit for freelancers, independent professionals, and micro to small-sized enterprises that often face financial service challenges.
“The new card powered by Visa unlocks more payment options for GCash users as they can use it at over 100 million merchants in the Philippines and across the world,” said Ren-Ren Reyes, President and CEO of G-Xchange, the mobile wallet operator of GCash.
Your Cashless Companion for Daily Expenses
Gone are the days of carrying wads of cash. The GCash Card offers a seamless cashless payment solution for your routine expenses. Whether it’s shopping online across a myriad of websites and apps or making purchases at your local stores, the card’s versatility shines through.
Plus, with tap-to-pay and card insertion options available at payment terminals, transactions are faster and hassle-free.
Boasting acceptance from over 100 million merchants, not just within the beautiful archipelago of the Philippines but internationally as well, the GCash Card truly is your passport to global shopping.
Championing Financial Inclusion
With the GCash Card, you’re not just getting a payment tool, but a ticket to an array of financial services previously only enjoyed by traditional bank account holders. From swift ATM withdrawals in the Philippines to cashing out in over 200 countries thanks to Visa’s expansive network, financial inclusivity is no longer just a catchphrase.
“The GCash Card paves the way to better financial inclusion. With the card’s contactless capability, it enables Filipino shoppers, especially those who don’t usually pay with cards, to shop conveniently and securely, joining millions around the world who have been tapping to shop, dine, and travel,” said Jeff Navarro, Country Manager – Visa for the Philippines and Guam.
The Cherry on Top
As a gesture of added value, GCash Cardholders will have access to GInsure, which grants customers free insurance coverage of up to P20,000 for the initial 30 days post-activation. If misfortune strikes and the card is lost or damaged, worry not! Gcash will cover the P185 card replacement fee and even the shipping fee up to P225.
