GCash,\u00a0the Philippines’\u00a0leading finance super app and largest cashless ecosystem, further expands its presence overseas, particularly in the\u00a0United Kingdom\u00a0and\u00a0Europe, through the new UK\/EU Bank Cash In feature, revolutionizing remittance for around two million Filipinos in\u00a0Europe.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting in November, overseas Filipinos in the UK and\u00a0Europe\u00a0can already seamlessly link their international bank accounts to GCash, making it easier and more convenient to send remittances to\u00a0the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, sending money from the UK and Europe to the Philippines has been a complex and time-consuming process, often involving expensive fees and multiple intermediaries. With the new feature, Filipinos can enjoy lower fees and faster transaction times when sending money home, as well as competitive exchange rates and real-time access to funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Many Filipinos have chosen Europe and the United Kingdom as their home. GCash hopes to provide their needs and help them connect with their loved ones, as a trusted digital finance partner made for Filipinos, by Filipinos,” said Paul Albano, GCash International General Manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Floris de Kort, CEO of Thunes, <\/strong>added, “We are expanding our collaboration with GCash, a long-standing valued Member of our Direct Global Network, to transform digital wallet top-ups. Through Thunes’ Direct Global Network, we are now delivering an instant top-up service that simplifies cross-border transactions. Our alliance with GCash is a testament to our passion for innovation, the versatility of our proprietary network, and our dedication to financial inclusion through money movement around the world.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through its vision of making ‘Finance for All’ a reality for its users around the world, GCash has recently become the Philippines’ first and only $5 billion unicorn. With its relentless push for financial inclusion and strong growth prospects, it recently gained new investments from Japan’s largest banking group Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG), and Ayala Corporation one of the Philippines’ biggest and most enduring conglomerates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“At GCash, we prioritize finance for all Filipinos whether they are in the Philippines or abroad. We know our countrymen in Europe and the UK work hard to provide for their families back home,” says Albano. “We want to make their lives easier by looking for more convenient ways to help them send money back to their families.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
