MANILA, Philippines, Nov. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the official launch of Google Pay in the Philippines, GCash, the country's biggest cashless ecosystem, can now be fully integrated with Google's secure and widely accepted payment system.
Ren-Ren Reyes, President and CEO of GCash mobile wallet operator G-Xchange, Inc., joins other industry players led by the FintechAlliance.Ph and Visa, along with officials from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), at the launch of Google Pay in the Philippines
The integration is now available to select GCash users and will be rolling out to more customers soon. It will enable millions of Filipinos to link their GCash wallets to Google Pay for fast, secure, and seamless transactions.
To link GCash accounts to Google Pay, users need to download the Google Wallet App from the Google Play Store, open the GCash app, and tap on their Profile. From there, they should go to My Linked Accounts and select Google Pay. After reviewing the information, users must agree to bind and proceed with biometric verification. Once complete, a prompt will appear that will redirect them to the Google Pay app, where they need to sign in.
By combining the unmatched local scale and trust of GCash with Google Pay's global infrastructure, the integration redefines how users move through digital and physical commerce. With the integration, users can easily activate GCash as a fund source for Google Pay for various transactions.
Moreover, activating GCash on Google Pay provides a more seamless and secure experience, since it eliminates the need for manual card entry, without storing or sharing card numbers with merchants.
