GCash Save Money set sights to improve Filipinos’ lives with more rewarding ways to save

GCash, the undisputed leader and preferred mobile wallet in the Philippines, has rolled out offerings for GCash Save Money which seek to provide Filipinos with more rewarding ways to save and accumulate long-term wealth in a safe and secure way amid the challenges presented by the pandemic.

GCash Save Money goes beyond saving and draws closer into an investment platform with its limited-time promo of 4% per annum interest growth rate for GCash Save Money account holders. 

On top of that, GCash Save Money also provides free insurance coverage for its account holders. 

Both the special rate promo and the free insurance will apply to users who maintain a minimum of P100,000 in savings in their GCash Save Money accounts.

“We at GCash are committed to uplift the lives of our users further by providing them with more rewarding ways to save money. Now that we are experiencing huge hardships during these times, these efforts by GCash Save Money are deep rooted in our vision of providing finance for all,” said GCash President Martha Sazon. 

The special 4% per annum interest rate promo runs from June 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020. The promo of 4% interest rate per annum will be merited to the GCash Save Money account holders who maintain a balance  of P100,000 and up. 

Regular GCash Save Money accounts have a standard interest rate of 3.1% per annum, still the best-in-the industry when compared to traditional banks, which offer an average of 0.25% interest per year. 

For GCash Save Money Free Insurance, account holders should have an average daily balance of at least 100,000 in a given month. Fulfillment of such will make the GCash Save Money account holder eligible for free insurance during the next month.

The Free Insurance offer is exclusive to GCash Save Money account holders until July 1, 2021. The insurance package includes free life insurance coverage equal to their ADB up to P1 million, zero fees, zero monthly premium, and no medical check up required.
