How to open a Gcash account using Gcash mobile app

When operating a business online you should provide at least an online payment option where your customers can pay and settle their bills online without them being in your store and you, accept the payments online.

This is where Gcash comes into play. In Gcash, your customers can simply log in to their GCash App, swipe left, check their special QR code, and input the sum to be charged. Your customer’s payment is electronically transferred to your account. It’s that easy. No POS terminals, maintenance, or manual cash sweeping are needed.

You must first create an account before you can begin using the mobile app. The GCash mobile app makes registration fast and simple. There are other options for registering, but the app is the most convenient since all other approaches need a mobile phone.

Before you do something else, make sure you have the GCash App downloaded. GCash is an app that works on both Android and iOS platforms. The following links will take you to the app’s download page:

Once the Gcash app is now downloaded to your phone, you are now good to register an account via the Gcash app.

Registration Steps via the GCash App

1. Download the GCash mobile app[1]
2. Enter your mobile number and tap “Next.”
3. You will receive a six-digit authentication code on the number you provided. Input the code then tap “Submit Code.”
4. Provide your information in the next pages such as name, birthdate, address, and email address and tap “Submit.”

Next, in order to transfer and receive payments via the Gcash app from one person to another, you must have a verified account first.
