In today’s digital age, the realm of online shopping has expanded to encompass a wide array of products, from clothing and appliances to groceries and essential utilities. Many Filipinos are actively participating in this online purchasing trend. With a steadfast commitment to ensuring the safety and security of its operations, GCash, the Philippines’ leading finance super app, has introduced ‘Online Shopping Protect’ (OSP) in collaboration with GInsure to offer worry-free online shopping experiences to Filipinos.
In partnership with Chubb Insurance, GCash presents OSP as the ideal solution to safeguard Filipino consumers against unscrupulous sellers, particularly during the bustling Christmas season when an abundance of double-digit sales are launched. For a mere PHP 34, users can avail 60 days of coverage amounting to up to PHP 20,000 for all their online transactions. This insurance shields against situations where orders go undelivered, are accidentally damaged, do not match their description, or are stolen.
GCash users can seamlessly incorporate this insurance by selecting GCash as their mode of payment when shopping online. This provides protection coverage for transactions conducted across 1,500 online stores, including popular e-commerce platforms like Shopee, Zalora, and TikTok.
Winsley Bangit, GCash’s Vice President for New Businesses, emphasizes, “As we continue working towards our vision of making finance accessible to all, we also prioritize safeguarding our customers. With OSP, our goal is to reduce fraudulent incidents such as delivery scams for items paid with GCash. We have also ensured that this protection is affordable and easily accessible through GInsure.“
When shopping online, users only need to proceed to the checkout and notice the pre-ticked box that outlines the coverage of the product. Afterward, they can complete the purchase and check out their selected items with utmost speed and convenience.
Life’s unexpected setbacks can occur at any time, and having the peace of mind that your online purchases are covered for various unforeseen circumstances for a nominal fee is invaluable.
If you have not yet joined the GCash community, the app is readily available for free on Google Play and the App Store. For further information, please visit www.gcash.com.ph.
