There are two primary ways of borrowing money through GCash:
1. GLoan
- GCash’s primary lending service
- Offers relatively larger loan amounts and customizable repayment terms.
- Accessible only to eligible, pre-approved GCash users with a good GScore,
How to Check Eligibility and Apply
- GCash App: Open your GCash app and navigate to the “Borrow” section.
- Check for GLoan: If you find “GLoan” listed, it means you’re likely pre-approved.
- Application: Follow the in-app instructions to apply, choosing your desired loan amount and repayment term.
2. GLoan Sakto
- Designed for smaller, short-term loans.
- Interest-free if you repay quickly (often within a few weeks).
- More widely accessible for GCash users.
How to Access and Apply
- GCash App: Look within the “Borrow” section on your GCash App.
- Find “GLoan Sakto”: If you see it listed, tap on it.
- Choose Amount and Term: Select the amount and repayment term that suits your needs.
Important Considerations
- Eligibility: GScore (built through frequent GCash use) plays a role in loan eligibility. Not everyone will qualify.
- Interest Rates and Fees: These vary depending on loan amounts and your profile. Review them carefully before applying.
- Responsible Borrowing: Only borrow what you are confident you can repay within the agreed time period to avoid late fees and potential impact on your GScore.
Additional Tips
- Build Your GScore: To increase your chances of GLoan approval, use GCash frequently for transactions, bills payment, and investments.
- Alternatives: If you don’t qualify for GCash loans, consider other online lenders, bank loans, or borrowing from friends/family if possible.
