Easily Expanding GCash Limits without Linking a Bank Account

For a lot of users, especially sellers using their own generated GCash QR, the default transaction limits (Php 100k in and out) may prove to be problematic as buyers increase. Or you may find that your transactions lately have been hitting Php 100k yourself.

As a recap, normally to be able to avail of the Php 500k transaction limits, you would need to:

1. Link either BPI, UnionBank, or Payoneer account to your GCash
2. Deposit or Invest at least Php 100 in a GSave or GInvest account

However, there are also cases when it’s problematic to do some or more of these conditions. You may have no time to create savings accounts just to avail yourself of the account extension, or you may be blacklisted by CIMB from accessing your GSave account.

GCash has acknowledged this and released GCash Pro 99 as an alternative.

What is GCash Pro 99?

This is a subscription for GCash users to avail of to get the account extension just by paying Php 99 a month.

The benefits of this subscription are:

Other Questions

Can I cancel my subscription at any time?

Once subscribed, you cannot cancel that particular subscription, nor can you get a refund. However, you can opt not to renew as the opt-out forms are sent to you 3 days before renewal.

If GCash cannot debit your subscription fee, it will retry 2 more times. But if they still cannot debit, then you will be opted out of the renewal automatically.
