What do I need to cash out GCash?

To cash out at a GCash partner outlet, you’ll need your GCash linked mobile phone and your valid government issued ID. We’ll look at the process you need to follow in just a moment.

Aside from cashing out at a partner location you also have another couple of options:

• Cash out at an ATM using your GCash card if you have one, at an ATM in a store like 7-eleven
• Cash out at RCBC ATM using scan to withdraw if you’re a fully verified GCash account holder⁴

GCash cash out fee

The GCash cash out fee may depend on the way you decide to withdraw your money. If you are cashing out at a GCash partner location, you’ll need to check the fees which apply in the specific provider. Fees may vary depending on the value of your cash out, for example.

If you’re cashing out using your GCash card at an ATM, look out for the ATM charges when they appear on screen⁵. These are set according to the provider of the specific ATM terminal, and are typically up to about 18 PHP per withdrawal if you’re in the Philippines. If you’re overseas, you can use your card at eligible ATMs, but bear in mind you’ll pay an ATM fee, and there’s likely to be an additional charge to convert your GCash PHP balance to the currency you’re withdrawing in.

If you use the RCBC ATM scan to withdraw service, there’s a service fee of 18 PHP per withdrawal.
