GCash is a Philippine mobile payments service owned by Globe Fintech Innovations, Inc. (doing business as Mynt), and operated by its wholly-owned subsidiary, G-Xchange, Inc.[1]
Mynt is a joint venture between Ant Group, an affiliate company of the Alibaba Group who operates Alipay, the world's leading mobile and online payments platform; Ayala Corporation, one of the Philippines' largest and oldest business conglomerates; and telco giant Globe Telecom, through its corporate venture builder, 917Ventures.
As of May 2023, GCash claims to have 81 million active users and 2.5 million sellers and merchants across the Philippines.[2][3]
Since GCash does not have bank status, the ₱500,000 protection of funds deposited in a bank by the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation is not available for e-money issuers.
