Receiving Money with a Gcash Basic Account

Once you have a Gcash Basic account, you can receive money from other Gcash users or through bank transfers. Here’s how:

• Receive from other Gcash users: The sender can send money directly to your Gcash number. They will need to input your number and the amount they want to send.
• Receive from banks: You can provide your Gcash number to the sender when you make a bank transfer request. The money will be credited to your Gcash account within a few minutes.

Receiving Money via Transaction Reference Number

Basic GCash users can receive money from other GCash users by providing a Transaction Reference Number (TRN). Here are the steps on how to receive money using a TRN:

• Open the GCash app on your device.
• Tap on the “Receive Money” option.
• Select “Transaction Reference Number.”
• Enter the TRN provided by the sender.

• The funds will be credited to your GCash account once the transaction is processed.

Note: Basic GCash users can only receive money via TRN from other GCash users. They cannot receive money from linked bank accounts or other payment platforms.
