What is GCash QR
GCash QR is a feature that allows users to send and receive money using their own personal QR code.
This feature is available on the GCash app and can be used for both sending and receiving money, making it a convenient and secure way to transfer funds.
To send money using GCash QR, users can scan or upload another customer's QR code, ensuring that the money is sent to the correct person.
This eliminates the need to manually enter a mobile number, making the process faster and reducing the risk of sending money to the wrong number.
To receive money, users can generate their own personal QR code that can be scanned by other users or uploaded to the app to send money.
This QR code does not divulge the user's GCash number publicly and does not expire, allowing other users to use the same code to send money multiple times.
Fully verified GCash users can also assign a peso value to the code itself, ensuring that a certain amount is auto-generated every time the code is scanned.
This feature protects users against the risks associated with manual transactions, such as incorrect payments or lost funds.
GCash QR is also a convenient option for merchants, as it eliminates the need for expensive machines to process mobile money transactions.
Merchants can simply use QR codes with a unique code linked to their GCash wallet, making transactions faster and more secure.
