GCash International General Manager Paul Albano explained that the partnership with Viamericas was established to provide fast and secure financial services to Filipinos based in North American countries and their families in the Philippines.
“The partnership between Viamericas and GCash empowers OFWs in these locations to send secure and fast remittances to their loved ones back home. This collaboration enhances financial control for OFWs and strengthens connections with their families, making the remittance process easier than ever.”
Joseph Argilagos, Viamericas’ Co-founder and Executive Chairman, sees this collaboration as a way to expand its capabilities in the Philippines by integrating its services with GCash,
“This partnership perfectly aligns with our mission to empower communities by providing accessible, affordable, and reliable financial services.”
he noted.
Viamericas has multiple locations across North America, which enables ease of sending for Filipinos, wherever they are in the region. With the capabilities of GCash and Viamericas, OFWs sending money to their families is now easier and hassle free.
