How to Activate and Use GGives in GCash

GCash now has a new thing called GGives. It helps Filipinos buy things without paying for them all at once. You can pay for stuff up to Php30,000 in total over 12 months. This means you can split the cost into smaller payments, called “gives,” which can go up to 24 times.

You can choose to pay back what you owe in 3 or 6 months. That makes it easier for you to manage your money.

The cool thing is that you might not have to pay any extra money for borrowing. That’s because sometimes there’s 0% interest. For example, if you borrow Php30,000 and pay it back over a year, you might pay around Php3,400 each month. Just remember, the exact amount might change depending on how long you take to pay and your GScore. In this article, we discuss how to activate and use GGives in GCash.

What’s the Difference Between GGives and GCredit?

GGives and GCredit are like money helpers for people who use GCash. But they work a bit differently.

GGives is made by Fuse Lending, Inc., which is owned by the same company that runs GCash, called Mynt. On the other hand, GCredit is linked with CIMB Bank, a big bank from Malaysia. Both GGives and GCredit follow rules from a group called the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to make sure everything’s fair.

Right now, GGives lets you borrow money only when you pay at certain shops using a QR code. But GCredit lets you borrow for online shopping and also when you scan a QR code at stores.
