Globe G-Cash is very useful and helpful to my online business. Globe is the leading telecommunications company in the Philippines, and it has further established its name by pioneering this very ingenious idea. G-Cash is a virtual wallet in my mobile phone. I can put money in it in two ways. First, I can go to a Globe center to deposit money on my account (which is actually my mobile phone number). Second, I can receive payment and therefore credit money on my account.

I’m an online seller in ebay.ph and I find my buyers always asking if I have a G-Cash account. They find it the easier route in paying for my items. Why? Because G-Cash eliminates the hassle of going to a bank to deposit payment. There are no forms to fill up and no bank fees incurred.

I always keep a minimum amount in my globe wallet because this makes buying easier. All it takes is one text message to pay the seller! I can bid and pay for the items I want instantly, wherever I am. I have done this many times already and I can really attest to the efficiency of Globe G-Cash. Money is sent to the seller in real time. I get a text message reply instantly to inform me that my payment was sent successfully. There is no need to scan deposit slips to email to the seller as proof of payment. The text messages are enough proof to complete a transaction.

As a seller, I also receive payments instantly. I receive a text message to be informed how much was deposited to my wallet, and at the same time be instantly updated of my balance. If you are a seller like me, you will know how important this is. In bank payments, checking online to see if payment to your account came in can be a hassle. Sometimes your account is not immediately updated if a banker has not yet posted the deposit transaction.

Another thing I like about G-Cash is that I don’t worry about maintaining balances. Even if I have zero money in my G-Cash for a very long time, I’m not charged for dormant accounts. In the same way, when I don’t withdraw immediately, I’m also not getting any service charge. I got a bad experience before when one of my bank accounts lost a lot of money due to service charges because of the account’s inactivity. That was really a hassle.

I’ve been using G-Cash for four years now. It is my premiere mode of payment in whatever I sell online, and so far, my online business has been doing very well. My clients are always pleased with the speedy transactions that G-Cash brings.
