GCASH, UnionBank strengthens mobile banking edge with eMoney XChange service

G-XChange, Inc. (GXI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Globe Telecom and operator of the pioneering m-commerce service GCASH, has entered into a partnership agreement with UnionBank of the Philippines (UnionBank), for a service that will enable customers to link their UnionBank accounts to their GCASH mobile wallets.

 

The UnionBank-GCASH partnership for eMoney XChange is a service that enables UnionBank clients with EON, E-Wallet, ePayCard and UnionBank regular savings and checking accounts to transfer funds to and from their GCASH wallets through their UnionBank account via SMS. This service is an additional feature to UnionBank’s Globe Mobile Banking facility.
