GCash, the mobile wallet of Globe Telecom, said it teamed up with more than 70 remittance providers, allowing Filipinos overseas to send money directly to their loved ones in the Philippines.
Through international remittance service providers like Western Union, Ria, Remitly and MoneyGram, Filpinos overseas can securely send money straight to the GCash accounts of their family and loved ones.
GCash is also allowing more Filipinos abroad to use the app wherever they are and using their international or non-Philippine mobile numbers. With the expansion of GCash overseas, both migrants and Filipinos abroad have better control over their finances. While the free real-time money transfers gives recipients in the Philippines convenient and hassle-free access to funds, GCash also allows app users overseas to pay bills—such as utilities, taxes, and tuition— directly on the app.
