Huawei, GCash bring first-ever wearable payment innovation to the Philippines
With more Filipinos turning to faster, contactless payment methods, GCash is pushing the boundaries of digital convenience once again—this time, straight to your wrist.
In partnership with Huawei, GCash introduces Watch Pay—the first-ever wearable payment solution in the Philippines—empowering users to make secure, hands-free transactions directly through their smartwatch. Whether you’re on the move, mid-workout, or simply traveling light, Watch Pay makes it easier than ever to pay without pulling out your phone or wallet.
“As digital payments become essential in daily life, GCash Watch Pay eliminates the hassle of reaching for your phone or cash during purchases,” said Ren-Ren Reyes, President and CEO of G-Xchange, Inc., the mobile wallet operator behind GCash.
How It Works
Once linked to a compatible Huawei smartwatch, your GCash account generates a QR code right on the watch face. Merchants with a scan-enabled POS can instantly scan the code to complete transactions securely—just tap, scan, and go.
Designed for busy lifestyles, Watch Pay is ideal for:
✔️ Daily commuters
✔️ Fitness enthusiasts
✔️ On-the-go professionals
✔️ Anyone who values ease and speed in payments
Powered by Innovation and Trust
The launch of Watch Pay underscores GCash’s commitment to expanding digital access and security for every Filipino. The integration with Huawei smartwatches makes this innovation available to over 7 million Huawei wearable users in the Philippines.
GCash’s Head of Payment Innovations, Dani Gil Librojo, recently joined the Huawei Developer Conference in Dongguan, China, to showcase this game-changing collaboration—highlighting how QR-powered wearable payments are the future of seamless transactions.
Where to Use & How to Get Started
Watch Pay is compatible with select Huawei smartwatches and can be used with merchants that support Business Scan Consumer technology.
