Accepting QR Payments

You can start accepting payments as soon as your QR kit is delivered and set up in your store. Customers can pay by scanning your QR code or showing their personal QR code for you to scan.

 

Here are some reminders about accepting QR payments:

  • You don’t need an internet connection to accept GCash payments. A phone that receives SMS notifications, included in your QR kit, is enough to confirm payments.
  • All payments, including those made via GCredit, GGives, or vouchers, are credited in full to the merchant’s virtual wallet in real-time.
  • GCash will automatically transfer funds to the merchant’s nominated bank account for all successful transactions by the next banking day. An SMS confirmation will be sent after each successful transaction.
  • Transaction or settlement reports will be emailed within 24 hours. You can use these reports to check and verify your GCash transactions.

If your QR keycard or phone/SIM card is lost or damaged, email merchantsupport@gcash.com to request a replacement. Delivery will take 7–11 days, depending on your branch's location.
