Gcash, the official mobile wallet platform of Globe Telecom, recently
introduced a new and engaging feature where users can start on investing their
hard-earned cash with a few taps on the mobile phone and the price of a special
lomi served in lomi houses. Through Gcash Invest Money which is a joint venture
of Globe Telecom, Ant Financial, Ayala Corporation's Mynt and ATRAM Trust Corporation,

Php50.
This intriguingly new feature, which was officially launched on January
2019, is designed specifically for those who are new to investments but want to
make much money without any hindrances. Considering that the biggest roadblock
for investment beginners is that it requires between Php5,000 and Php10,000 to
start investing, Gcash Invest Money assures users that these types of
roadblocks will not be in anyone's way especially if that is a minimum wage
earner or young professional.
Anyway, a verified Gcash account and minimum balance of Php50 is all
you need to start investing. Yup, you don't need a bank account for it. Before starting
to invest, users will be vetted by ATRAM. Once vetted, they can invest in ATRAM
