Buy bitcoin with GCash

What is GCash?

GCash is a Philippine mobile wallet operated by G-Xchange, Inc. and regulated by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. You hold a peso balance in the app and spend it by QR code, by sending to another GCash account, or through a merchant checkout. Money gets into the wallet by cash in at a partner outlet or by transfer from a bank over the BSP's InstaPay and PESONet rails, and Philippine exchanges commonly accept it as a funding method.

Speed

Paying from a GCash balance is real time, and money moved in from a bank arrives instantly over InstaPay or by the end of the same banking day over PESONet.

Cost

GCash does not charge you to pay a merchant from your wallet balance; the cost sits on putting money in, where the fee depends on the cash in method and the sending institution.

Limits

InstaPay carries a per transaction ceiling of PHP 50,000 for personal transfers, and GCash caps what your wallet can hold and move by verification tier, so verify the account fully before a large deposit.

Speed and cost describe the rail itself. What an exchange adds on top varies by platform and is shown per exchange below.

GCash appears in one country guide on this site, the Philippines, where deposits settle in Philippine peso (PHP). Buyers there fund exchange accounts with Maya, InstaPay, PESONet, Credit or debit card and others as well, and the country guide ranks the exchanges that take each one.
