Filipino overseas workers can send money to the Middle East without transfer fees using GCash until the end of April 2026, easing financial transactions for migrant workers.
GCash, a leading digital wallet service in the Philippines, has officially announced that it will waive all transfer fees for sending money to the Middle East until April 30, 2026. This move aims to support the Filipino overseas workers in the Middle East by reducing the cost of remittances that are essential for their families back home. With a significant portion of the Filipino labor force employed in Middle Eastern countries, the fee waiver offers substantial financial relief. Official communications from GCash confirm that this promotion covers all money transfer transactions from the Philippines to countries in the Middle East, facilitating more affordable and accessible remittance services. This development reflects ongoing efforts to improve financial inclusivity and support the welfare of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) abroad through fintech innovations.
