Potential women leaders have been limited because of outdated gender norms and lack of mentoring and support. The visibility of successful female role models for girls and women is vital, particularly in fields that have long been dominated by men, like finance and technology. 

“Leading by example is important. Women founders need to be shown more to people,” said Sazon.

Although finance and technology companies are mainly dominated by men and making it in these industries may seem intimidating to women, Sazon helped millions of Filipinos during the pandemic through the top fintech company, GCash. The Philippines’ leading mobile wallet company currently has 2.5 million merchants and a 46 million subscriber base, which is equivalent to more than 40 percent of the population having a GCash account. When Sazon was just starting her career at Globe, the top telecommunications company in the Philippines, she said it was initially dominated by men but now, women leaders have also emerged in the company. 

“We're opening up not just the tech industry but the fintech industry as well to women. Fintech is a good industry for women to thrive because women are naturally good decision makers and problem fixers,” said Sazon. “We have to create more ‘I want to be like her moments.’ Someone just has to pave the way for it,” she added. 

In order to have more women leaders, Sazon said that mentoring should start at a young age. She said it’s vital to guide women in high school about the right college course to take, the job that’s a good fit for them, and the right skill set in starting a business. “Young girls should be given more visual cues. As we provide them these visual cues and mentoring, we should be there to continuously guide them,” she said. 

She added, “We need to be shown to more people so we get to a point that we are ‘ordinary,’ that it becomes a normal thing for women to become successful with their decisions.”

Sazon said that encouraging more women to lead could be as easy as creating chat groups for women or building an organization to support them. She also shared that she’s fortunate to have had great mentors on her journey.

The presence of women in leadership roles and the opportunity to network with them is crucial in helping motivate other women to advance in their careers. These role models will ultimately inspire women to aim higher so they can then become an example to younger generations as well. 

Sazon also encouraged women to trust their capability, articulate their purpose and believe in it. She leads GCash with the “Finance for All” vision, offering digital products and services that are safe and convenient from paying bills via the app’s network of 600 billers to buying essentials on the GLife feature on the app.

This National Heroes Day, we not only celebrate the names in our history books, but also the millions of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) who sacrifice every day to provide for their families back home and create a brighter future for themselves. 

While working overseas is a dream for many, it comes with its own set of challenges and sacrifices such as not being physically present for milestones of loved ones or not being able to take full control of where the money they send really goes to. 

This is why GCash has designed its features to be accessible to Filipinos overseas. It’s hard enough to be away from home, and being able to support our families should not be any more difficult. 

Those based in the Philippines have experienced the ease and convenience GCash has to offer, and those abroad can experience the same, too. 

“I first realised I could use GCash abroad when my dad told me to download it to receive relief payments from our local government during the pandemic,” explains Kamae Magsanoc, a marketing professional based in Sydney. “While I didn’t have use for it myself, I was able to access it and send it back to my family back home, where they could put it to good use. Since then, I've explored the app and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it is to use, not too dissimilar from our banking apps here in Australia,” she says. 

Filipinos abroad can easily download the app and register provided they have an active and roaming Philippine sim. According to Kamae, it was easy for her to sign up and verify her account. She has since used the app’s Money Transfer feature on several occasions. “Although I can’t be with my family right now, I was able to celebrate my recent promotion with them. I transferred some money and it went straight into their GCash accounts.” Cashing in your GCash account is easy and convenient through GCash's remittance partners in more than 31 countries around the world.

Kamae also likes to use it to send presents to her family. “I like to support small Filipino businesses. Most, if not all of them now accept GCash, so I can purchase from these small shops, send them to my family and pay directly through GCash. For example, my parents recently celebrated their anniversary and I was able to send my mum flowers from their local florist because they accept GCash. It’s really convenient,” she says. 

Joseph Azrael Daluz, a relief assistant educator also based in Australia shares that he has been using GCash for a few months now. “I use it for transferring money to my family, relatives, friends, and people in need,” he says. “I prefer GCash since it is safe and more convenient. It needs less details compared to bank transfers. I just need 3 details - full name, address, and cellphone number and can do it through my mobile phone anytime I want to,” he explains. 

According to him, GCash has made it easy for him to manage his finances, even from overseas. “I do not have to stress over asking for details for those I want to send money to for help. It is quick and easy and I can focus on more important things. I highly recommend it! There are a lot of people getting sick nowadays because of the pandemic and the consequences of being in a lockdown. GCash allows me to extend my help in an efficient way.”

Filipinos overseas also have access to GCash’s bills payment feature, where they can pay for bills such as water and electricity directly. This can eliminate the worry of whether money sent home is being used for the right purposes. 

Buhay sa Cruise Ship Facebook Group founder Rinell Banda would also recommend GCash to Filipinos overseas, especially seamen. “I have used several of the features myself, including Money Transfer, Bills Payment and GInvest. I have made a few YouTube videos about it. If it is this easy and convenient to use even for Filipinos abroad, I would happily recommend it to OFWs,” he says. 

With millions of Filipinos working overseas, sending money and providing for their families back home is one of the things that require an easy and reliable service. Filipinos abroad can trust GCash in helping care for their families in many ways, from money transfer, to bills payment and more.

Celebrate OFWs as your hero this National Heroes Day by joining the GCash MoneyGram Saludo Sayo contest. From now until August 29, those in the Philippines can win P50,000 for their OFW family and friends when they claim for their GCash remittance through Moneygram. Post a photo of your nominated OFW on Facebook and share why they are your hero and use the hashtags #OFWBayaniKo and #GCashMoneyGramSaludoSayo. Three winners will be announced via Facebook on August 30, 2021, in time for National Heroes Day.

During the pandemic, more Filipinos started micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), such as online shops of various essentials and retail products. In the new normal, these MSMEs, as well as their customers, need contactless transactions and deliveries for everyone’s safety.

To help MSMEs and the community during these times, GCash, the country’s mobile leading wallet, ties up with GoGo Xpress (GGX), one of the country’s fastest growing digital logistics companies and reliable express courier founded by QuadX, to include GCash as a safe and convenient option for payments and deliveries. For GoGo Xpress deliveries, GCash offers shoppers two payment options: GCash Wallet and Scan-to-Pay.

“Many MSMEs provide Filipinos with essentials, create job opportunities, and contribute to the economy. GCash, together with GoGo Xpress, will continue to innovate to help businesses nationwide, especially MSMEs, pivot to a safe and cashless ecosystem and thrive even during the pandemic,” said GCash President and CEO Martha Sazon.

MSMEs and shoppers can start using GCash Wallet by simply downloading the GCash app for free on the Google Play or Apple Store and register for an account. After providing your mobile number, simply submit the 6-digit authentication code sent to your number, read and accept the Terms and Conditions, and fill in the contact information requested on the GCash registration form. 

GCash users can also choose the Scan-to-Pay option when paying for deliveries by tapping the QR code on the navigation bar of the GCash app and aligning their phone’s camera to the rider’s QR code for it to be scanned. Then, just input the right amount and click, “Pay.” After that, you’ll be able to see your in-app receipt on the screen and will receive an SMS confirmation as proof of your transaction.

“At GoGo Xpress (QuadX), it’s not just about bringing parcels from one point to another. While we seriously take into account the value and importance of each item that we move, we make it a point that we don’t lose sight of our ultimate goal and that is to democratize entrepreneurship in the country. As experienced innovators, our mission is to build entrepreneurs within the social commerce space, and we do this through our best-in-class solutions and technology." said QuadX Founder and CEO Dino Araneta.

“Integrating GCash into our ecosystem allowed us to up our game in terms of providing quality service to our key stakeholders – sellers, riders, community hubs, and buyers. In this new world that we are all facing right now, the ability to adapt and embrace new tools and solutions will make a difference for businesses to survive and thrive,” Araneta adds.

GCash has more than 46 million users, which more than doubled during the pandemic, also making it a preferred cashless payment option of multiple logistics companies, retail establishments, and more nationwide. They will continue to help more MSMEs pivot to digitization and safe delivery transactions to aid both businesses and customers navigate the new normal while staying safe.

To fast-track economic recovery amid the pandemic, public and private sectors must unite and work together to achieve a more inclusive financial ecosystem for all Filipinos. This is the vision behind One with the Nation: Forging Public-Private Partnerships Towards Digital Inclusion in the Philippines, a webinar organized by GCash, the countrys no. 1 mobile wallet app in collaboration with various national government agencies and local government units (LGUs). 

The event opened with a Keynote Message from BSP Governor Benjamin Diokno on Digital Financial Inclusion: Impacting the Lives of Millions of Filipinos. In his message to the participants, Governor Diokno underscored the importance of making financial inclusion a reality for every Filipino in the country. This was followed by a panel discussion on Digital Infrastructure: The Journey Starts Today! led by BSP deputy director Atty Leah M. Irao and Cong. Jose Enrique Garcia. Atty. Irao and Congressman Garcia discussed the value of digitalization to promote the safety and security of Filipinos even beyond the pandemic.

In his talk on Digital Manual: 101 Opportunities to Move Forward!, Director Marino discussed the long-term benefits of creating sound policies and guidelines, ensuring transparency during digital transformation.

Highlighting trailblazing partnerships going cashless, Makati Mayor Abby Binay led a panel entitled Digital Headstart: Kaya Mo Pilipino! In Makati, data of its constituents were collected and used to create the Makatizen ID card and open GCash accounts. The card serves as a valid ID that can be used to avail of government services, and a debit card to withdraw in any Bancnet ATM or use in Mastercard-accepting merchants. Likewise, Makati also uses GCash to disburse the salaries of employees, and allowances of senior citizens, and other financial assistance such as Maka-tulong. With Mayor Binay was DSWD Dir. Delizer who in turn shared the agencys groundbreaking SAP disbursement program last year. 

The mobile app has also partnered with the Social Security System (SSS). Since February, SSS has enabled GCash as an option for receiving benefits through PESOnet. The app has provided SSS members an option to pay their monthly contribution payments via the apps Pay Bills feature. Likewise for PAG-IBIG, contributions are also conveniently accepted via Pay Bills and Web Pay.

Closing the webinar was GCash VP for Enterprise Jose Luis Reyes who stressed the importance of financial inclusion and expressed optimism that despite todays challenges, there is a clear way forward to achieve BSPs vision and make Filipino lives better every day.

These programs are proof that strong partnerships between the private and public sectors are crucial in successfully bringing the benefits of digitalization and financial inclusion to Filipinos at a time when they need it most.
