Travel to Singapore and pay via GCash

Singapore is called the “Lion City” for a reason. Its prosperity is known everywhere in the world and has become the go-to place for Filipinos to soak in the sights and culture, shop for tech stuff and luxury pieces, and, of course, go on an epic food trip!

If it’s your first time in Singapore, it can get overwhelming to know what to do, and how you can stretch your budget out so you won’t miss out on the full experience. Pay your way through Singapore’s must-see shops, attractions, and dining spots using your GCash, just like how you would do it in the Philippines–no need to pay extra fees for foreign exchange on your credit card, and you don’t need to bring too much cash around with you. Stay safe while having fun in these spots–they all accept GCash!
