Soon you can pay cashless for GrabCar, GrabFood, GrabMart, GrabExpress, and other Grab services with GCash. A partnership between GCash, the country’s leading mobile wallet, and Grab Philippines makes this possible.

“Grab Philippines is dedicated to empowering our stakeholders in a digital-first economy, and key to this is driving a deeper and wider cashless adoption in the country,” said Country Head of Grab Philippines Grace Vera Cruz. Grab boasts of a strong foothold in markets like the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam.
Before this partnership, GCash and Grab already collaborated – their initial team up provided Filipinos a safe, seamless, and secure digital experience by allowing users to transfer money from their GCash wallet to their GrabPay wallet, and vice-versa. Building on this shared vision of addressing the country’s needs, the new partnership helps create a more cash-light and digitally driven economy.
