You might be wondering, what is GInvest and how could I start from it? 

Well, to keep it short, GInvest is actually a feature from GCash; a well-known online banking that is commonly used in the Philippines. And doesn’t only allow its users to save and manage their transactions remotely, but also gives them the opportunity to invest in various investment funds through GCash’s partner product providers.

Starting to have a grasp on it? Let’s dive deeper! 

To have a better understanding, GCash’s GInvest is equivalent to ‘Invest Money’ investment marketplace feature wherein users can invest an amount from their online wallet as startup funds for as low as Php 50.00. Sounds interesting, right?

Investment funds as per GCash’s explanation are pools of money filled by various investors who collectively agreed for their money to be handled by professional fund managers, who then apply their finances in different investment forms such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc.

Are you eligible to use GInvest? Let’s find out.

In order to have an investment account in GCash you must be 18 years of age, Fully Verified (KYC), and make sure that you are not tagged as a Power Pay Plus account holder (payroll).
