GCash, the leading finance super app in the Philippines, is bringing smiles and prizes to Filipinos as it stages barangay tours in Metro Manila. These barangay roadshows will give more Filipinos access to financial resources to help them thrive everyday and be ready for rainy days. Through its team-up with the country's number one noontime TV show It’s Showtime, GCash reaches millions of Filipinos with fair lending solutions that only used to be available to a select few.
“Nine out of 10 Filipinos borrow money to cover day-to-day expenses, emergencies and financial or life goals but there is still a significant demand for accessible lending options. Barangay GCash is our way of introducing lending solutions to Filipinos who need them. We want to let everyone know that help is now just a few taps away, and we hope to do so through inspiring stories and fun activities," said Fuse Lending Inc. Chief Product and Strategy Officer Baby Aquino. During It's Showtime's Barangay GCash segment, lucky residents shared their personal experiences and received prizes that will help kickstart their dreams of a better future. Among these are Nanay Luz, a single mom from Barangay Bagumbong in Caloocan City, and Nanay Evelyn, a hardworking seamstress from Barangay Manggahan with four children. Nanay Luz is a hardworking mother who goes above and beyond for her kids. As a reward for her efforts, she was given school supplies worth Php30,000 and a pangkabuhayan package valued at Php20,000. Meanwhile, Nanay Evelyn also took home a brand new laptop for her eldest child and a pangkabuhayan showcase.
On top of sharing inspiring stories from lucky residents, Barangay GCash also visited the residents of Brgy. Bagumbong, Caloocan City; Brgy. Manggahan, Pasig City; Brgy. Post Proper Southside and Brgy. Cembo in Taguig City; and Brgy. Cupang, Antipolo City, Rizal. Through various GCash games, residents had the chance to win different prizes and understand how borrowing money can be empowering rather than being a source of shame. Residents were introduced to GCash lending products: GLoan, an instant cash loan of up to Php125,000; GGives, which makes paying for large expenses easier with a flexible installment plan of up to 24 months; and GCredit, a credit line of up to Php50,000 for everyday expenses. Residents also learned about GLoan Sakto, where they can borrow as low as Php100 directly to their e-wallet for small expenses, and Borrow Load, which allows them to get prepaid load promos for mobile or broadband even without a remaining balance. These are available in Php50 and Php99 load-enabled SKUs with Php10 processing fee across all telcos and payable within 14 days.
“Access to loans is crucial in providing Filipinos with the means to meet their immediate and long-term needs without disrupting their cash flow. It is important to empower Filipinos with technology that can help them in their daily lives, during emergencies, and in achieving their goals," said Aquino. Stories of hope and success on Barangay GCash can be watched every Friday on It’s Showtime airing in the Philippines on Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, GMA-7, GTV and ALLTV and outside the Philippines on The Filipino Channel (TFC) and GMA Pinoy TV and streaming worldwide thru Kapamilya Online Live, It's Showtime's official Facebook page and YouTube channel, Kapuso Stream on GMA Network's official Facebook page and YouTube channel and iWantTFC.
