The pandemic has forced both consumers and businesses to change how they conduct their transactions. Business owners have had to adapt and innovate their services to cater to the growing needs of the “new normal.” This is why GCash has been committed to improving its digital products to cater to both the needs of Filipino customers and local businesses and enterprises who need future-ready solutions.
