Buy Now, Pay Later in Gives: How GGives Works

The thrill of earning money comes with the dread of managing your finances. Balancing the scale of your monthly budget to meet your needs and wants while still setting aside amounts for future lifestyle investments can be challenging.

 

When it comes to money matters, tech innovations have certainly become a big help, especially for those with no bank accounts. For example, digital wallets like GCash allow people to send money, pay bills, shop online, and do more with their hard-earned money anytime, anywhere—even with just their smartphone, mobile number, and an internet connection.

 

The app has made it easier for Filipinos to seamlessly transact with thousands of merchants nationwide. It also serves as a convenient money management solution with just a few clicks, letting users send money, receive money, and even save.

 

But more than that, the GCash app offers various payment and lending options to fit your needs. One of these is GGives, which allows you to spend more—bearably and effortlessly. Read on for an in-depth look at how GGives services can help you manage your finances.

What is GGives?

GGives is the ultra-accessible installment loan service by GCash that can help you make lighter and more flexible payments. Pay for your next shopping trip through installment plans that fit your budget when you buy from GGives partner merchants nationwide. 

 

Everyone who meets the following qualifications may register to avail GGives installment plans through the GCash mobile app. Here are the conditions:

 

  • Must be 21 to 65 years old

  • Must have good credit 

  • Must not have any records of fraudulent transactions

  • Must maintain a good GScore (note that the GScore requirements for GGives installment plans may differ per customer)

You can start enjoying the following benefits after successfully activating the GGives services in your GCash account:

 

  • Low-interest rates
    Depending on your GScore, GGives can assign users 0 to 5.49% interest rates. In comparison, users who availed GCredit and GLoan get 1 to 7% and 1.59 to 6.57% interest rates, respectively. 
  • Flexible installment options
    GGives offer installment plans payable within 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, or even 24 months. You can also pay for your GGives loan as a one-time payment after 14 days.

Through GCash auto-deduction:

 

GGives also offers the option to automatically deduct your amount due on your GCash wallet to help you better manage your finances and avoid late charges. After each auto-deduction, you will receive a confirmation message via SMS to verify the transaction. 

 

This feature can be prompted to start on the day of your due date until the last payment of your full settlement amount. 

 

Through GCash payment partners:

 

This process is similar to how you pay your GCredit dues. Click here to get a step-by-step guide on paying through GCash payment partners. 

 

Keep in mind that your payment will reflect on your GGives account after one business day. It may subject you to additional penalty charges if your payment is not posted before your due date.

 

If you'd like to have your penalty fees reversed, you'll have to submit a ticket via the GCash Help Center. The reversed charges will reflect on the next business day upon ticket submission.
