Filipinos in North America can now send money directly to GCash accounts in real-time through a partnership between GCash and US-based money transmitter Viamericas.
GCash International general manager Paul Albano on Tuesday said the tie-up enables fast and secure financial services to overseas Filipinos and their families in the Philippines.
“The partnership between Viamericas and GCash empowers OFWs in these locations to send secure and fast remittances to their loved ones back home. This collaboration enhances financial control for OFWs and strengthens connections with their families, making the remittance process easier than ever,” Albano said.
Viamericas co-founder and executive chairman Joseph Argilagos said the collaboration expands the company’s reach in the Philippines.
“This partnership perfectly aligns with our mission to empower communities by providing accessible, affordable and reliable financial services.”
He noted that Viamericas has multiple locations across North America, making it convenient for Filipinos to send money.
GCash, the country’s largest cashless ecosystem, has about 81 percent of Filipinos as account holders. It has a network of over 5.2 million QR merchants and social sellers, more than 339,000 cash-in and cash-out outlets, and over 520 GLife partner merchants.
