  • Easily snag airfare promos by paying through your e-wallet

Two things will get you through a seat sale: quick fingers and a seamless payment method.

There’s also no need to pay an additional holding fee when paying with cash at payment centers.

Book your flights through Philippine Airlines, Air Asia or Airpaz and pay using GCash.

  • Book accommodations through credible sites

Your accommodation can make or break your vacation! Read reviews by travelers who have similar trips like you (with pet, solo, with family, etc.) and check for trustworthy booking sites that have flexible payment options. 

With GCash, no need to withdraw cash, use your credit card or deal with incidental fees to pay for anything from hotels to hostels! GCash keeps your e-wallet funds secure by enabling a four-digit MPIN and a one-time password, with an option for biometric login.

Book for your hotel through Airpaz and securely pay with GCash.  

  • Plan and pay for your adventure before setting off
