With more Filipinos seeking faster and more convenient ways to pay, GCash continues to innovate in simplifying everyday transactions through its partnership with Huawei—introducing Watch Pay, the first-ever wearable payment innovation in the Philippines. Through this new way of paying, users can make secure, hands-free payments directly from their wrist, offering a seamless way to pay

“As digital payment solutions become increasingly essential, GCash Watch Pay eliminates the need to pull out a phone or wallet during purchases. Users can link their GCash account to a compatible Huawei smartwatch and generate a QR code directly from the device,” said Ren-Ren Reyes, President and CEO of GCash mobile wallet operator G-Xchange, Inc.

The GCash QR code in the Huawei smartwatch can then be scanned by any merchant with a scanning point-of-sale system, completing the transaction instantly and securely.

This feature is designed for those who are always on the move, whether during a workout, commute, or errands, when reaching for a phone or wallet might not be convenient. By bringing payments to a wearable device, GCash, together with Huawei, is responding to the growing need for simple and secure payment options in today’s fast-paced, mobile-centric world.

Moreover, this partnership with Huawei reinforces GCash’s commitment to enhancing digital payment convenience, with a focus on compatibility and security. Recently, GCash Payment Innovations Head Dani Gil Librojo also joined the Huawei Developer Conference in Dongguan, China, as the two companies further highlight their collaboration, with QR payments now available for 7 million Huawei Smartwatch users in the Philippines.

Watch Pay is currently available for Huawei smartwatches and is compatible with select merchants using Business Scan Consumer technology. This marks an important step in expanding wearable payment solutions for users seeking efficiency and security in their transactions.
