Mobilizes the spirit of bayanihan through #TulongMoiGCashMo

In response to the devastating effects of Severe Tropical Storm Kristine, GCash, through its official credit arm Fuse Lending, aims to support those in need by extending a one-month grace period for GLoan and GGives loan repayment for users in #KristinePH-hit areas in Regions V, VIII, XII, and CALABARZON.

GCash extends due date for GLoan and GGives

Loan repayments due between October 16 to November 7, will automatically be extended by one month. For instance, a loan due on October 22 will now be due on November 22, with subsequent due dates adjusted accordingly. Borrowers will not incur additional interest or late fees during the extension period, allowing them to focus on recovery without added financial stress. Eligible borrowers will receive SMS notifications detailing their new due dates and guidance on managing repayments. Those who can repay early are encouraged to do so.

“We stand with the communities affected by Severe Tropical Storm Kristine and are committed to helping them rebuild their lives,” said Tony Isidro President & CEO of Fuse Lending. “Every single effort  counts, and together, we can make a significant difference.”

#TulongMoiGCashMo: making donations accessible for everyone

In the spirit of Bayanihan during these challenging times, GCash is also enabling various organizations to raise funds and support relief and recovery operations for communities affected by heavy rains and flooding.
