| Published fees | A monthly PHP 8,000 combined limit across all OTC channels lets cash-in go through free of charge; past that threshold, 2 per cent applies, resetting every first of the month. The bank, not the wallet, charges for linked-bank InstaPay cash-in: PHP 15 at BPI versus PHP 10 at UnionBank. Right now, PayPal cash-in through GCash costs 1 per cent for amounts under PHP 20,000; from that threshold upward, a flat PHP 200 applies instead — though GCash says a flat 1 per cent takes over on 7 March 2026. No fee applies to Payoneer cash-ins or remittance claims. For a minimum cash-in of PHP 100, Pera Outlet agents suggest charging 1 per cent, with the outlet setting that rate. |

How fast money actually moves
GCash settles the underlying rail, not GCash, determines these timings: real time for wallet-to-wallet and InstaPay, same banking day for PESONet. That point concerns the rail rather than the casino; an operator can pause a withdrawal for internal review before it reaches GCash, and this review is normally the source of any delay.
A per-transaction cap is not published. None is published for this rail.
What GCash says about gambling transactions
GCash’s terms and conditions don’t blanket-ban gambling merchants; the general clause that comes closest actually bars pyramid and Ponzi schemes. Existing restrictions come from the regulator, not elsewhere. GCash’s GLife Games top-up and withdrawal feature was withdrawn effective 16 August 2025, following BSP Memorandum M-2025-029 (issued 14 August 2025), which gave all BSP-supervised institutions 48 hours to remove gambling and gaming links and redirects built into their apps.
GCash maintains, as a separate matter, that it holds zero tolerance for illegal gambling operators, and reports having blocked close to 3,200 merchants for exploiting its QR system to steer users into illegal gambling and scam sites. That combination limits both illegal-gambling-linked merchants and top-ups for in-app gaming. GCash’s suitability for funding a licensed casino’s cashier isn’t addressed here either way, positively or negatively.
