When you plant a virtual tree, GCash will plant a real tree in designated areas like the Ipo Watershed. Once you've earned enough green energy, you can plant a native tree like Yakal or co-plant other trees with 10 other GCash Forest heroes.
1. Log in to the GCash App, and tap on GForest.
2. Read the GForest User Agreement, and tap on I Want to Help!
Allow GCash Access to your contacts list to use GCash Social Features (like Stealing Energy from friends and Co-Planting a tree with friends), and allow GCash access to your health app/fitness tracker to allow you to collect green energy every time you walk.
3. Start collecting green energy!
Collect green energy to grow your plant! Whenever you do green or eco-friendly actions you will earn green energy. However, collect the energy as soon as possible as this will disappear after 24 hours.
