Using Globe G-CASH

GLOBE G-CASH allows any Globe or TM user to send and receive money, buy prepaid load, pay bills, and do a lot of other money-related transactions, anytime, anywhere using SMS.

Globe’s flagship M-Commerce service, was born from a simple goal of transforming a mobile phone into a wallet. With its launch in October 2004, G-CASH has effectively given Globe and TM subscribers access to a cashless and cardless method of facilitating money remittance, donations, loan settlement, disbursement of salaries or commissions, and payment of bills, products and services, with just a text message. G-Cash won the “Best Mobile Messaging Service” in the 2005 GSM Awards.

To register for G-CASH, type

REG <4-digit PIN/mother’s maiden name/first name/last name/address> to 2882

Make sure that your First Name and Last Name match the information that appears in any valid ID of yours. This is important for future G-CASH transactions.

After you’ve registered, you will need to load your mobile wallet with G-CASH. This is done via a cash-in transaction which is the process of converting your cash to G-CASH at a Globe Center or at any accredited G-CASH partner. (Most 7-Eleven branches are accredited G-cash outlets)
