GCash, the digital wallet owned by the Zobel de Ayala family’s business empire, has intensified its fight against digital fraud by forging a strategic alliance with the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI).
To enhance efforts in detecting and stopping online fraud, GCash signed an agreement that enables direct collaboration with the NBI. Under the deal, GCash shares details of suspicious accounts and transactions with the bureau, allowing faster identification and resolution of fraudulent activities.
With authorization from the NBI, GCash can block transactions involving flagged users before they proceed. The partnership equips both parties with tools to act swiftly and protect users from scams.
GCash reaffirmed its commitment to working with public and private institutions to build a safer digital ecosystem for all Filipinos.
This alliance marks a strong move toward curbing scams, especially in online gaming where unlicensed operators often exploit payment channels. Building trust in e-wallet systems plays a vital role in attracting and retaining players, and this effort significantly boosts confidence in online gaming platforms.
