Step 6: After you pay, GCash will send you two messages. One will say your load transaction is done, and the other will have your GSAT PIN.

How to Redeem Your GSAT PIN

You can do two things to use your GSAT PIN and add load to your box: go on the GSAT website or use text messages.

The GSAT website is like a place online where you can do things yourself. You can put in your GSAT PIN there, and it’ll add the load to your GSAT account.

Here’s what you do to use your GSAT load on the website:

Go to the GSAT website.
Put in these things:
- Your GSAT box number or serial number.
- The GSAT PIN you got in the text after buying on GCash.
Do the “I’m not a robot” thing.
Click “Submit.”

After you finish loading on the website, you’ll see a message that says it worked. It means the PIN will add the load to your GSAT box number.

To check if your GSAT box got the load, go to this webpage and type in your GSAT box number. If you have a GPinoy box, use this different webpage instead.
