Cebu is getting ready for a cashless payment system with GCash. Expanding its reach to more than 50 stores at the Ayala Center Cebu, shoppers may use their GCash App scan-to-pay feature for their purchases. As a part of its goal to encourage and fully implement an inclusive cashless payment system, GCash, a mobile wallet service from Globe Telecom, has expanded its availability to Cebu and boosted its usage starting with the Ayala Center Cebu.
