GCash American Express Virtual Pay allows buyers to provide a personalized US address where the item can be delivered to, granting Filipinos direct access to exclusive US goods. From this address, the item will then be shipped to the buyer's preferred delivery address in the Philippines.

Globe customers can also convert their Globe/TM prepaid load to GCash via the GCash mobile app by logging in to their GCash account, tapping Cash-in, keying in the desired amount to cash-in and confirming the transaction.
