With the help of GCash, I learned how to transfer money from one bank account to another. If you have an online banking account, you can certainly transfer money between bank accounts. GCash can, however, be used as a “middleman” between bank accounts if you do not have an online banking account.
If you have a BDO account, but don’t have a BDO online banking account, you can’t transfer money from it to a BPI account. BDO online banking requires you to go to an ATM and enter a code in order to register and activate your account. The alternative is to load your GCash wallet with money using your BDO Visa or MasterCard card, then transfer the money to your recipient’s bank account once the money has been loaded.
You can use this technique with any bank account that has a Visa or MasterCard credit card. InstaPay allows you to transfer money directly from GCash to another bank account, so you can also top up your wallet with your online banking account. In this article, we’ll teach you how you can make a fund transfer to a bank account without using your online banking account.

Here are the Steps How to Use GCash to Transfer Money Between Bank Accounts.
Step 1: Register your card with Gcash
In order to use GCash, you must first add your bank card. The maximum number of cards you can add to an account is three.
It is okay to skip this step if you already have a linked card or if you prefer to use another cash-in option like online banking.
If you would like to add your card to GCash, follow these steps:
- Go to your GCash app and open it.
- On the top-left corner, tap the hamburger icon. You will see a sliding menu.
- Select “My Linked Accounts.”
- Select “My Bank Cards.”
- Click the “ADD CARD” button.
- Please enter your card details: cardholder name, card number, expiration date, and CVV code.
- You will have to wait until the card is added. When your card enrollment is complete, you will receive a text message.
You can load your GCash wallet with your bank card once it has been added.
Step 2: Deposit money into your GCash account
After creating your GCash wallet, you will need to add money using your Visa or MasterCard. Transferring money from your card to your GCash wallet is free.
You can add money to your GCash wallet using your bank card by following these steps:
- Log in with your MPIN in the GCash app.
- Click “Cash In” from the home screen.
- Choose “Bank Cards” below “My Linked Accounts,” or select “MasterCard / Visa Bank” below “Online Banks.”
- Select your bank card if you have more than one. Click “SUBMIT.”
- Once you have reviewed the payment details, click “CONFIRM.”
- Cash in requests are now being processed.
- You will receive a text message confirming your successful cash in.
In case you do not have a credit card or debit card, you can use GCash’s cash in options. Some examples include Palawan Pawnshop, Cebuana Lhuillier, Bayad Center, 7-Eleven, and Globe stores. Here is a complete list of GCash cash in options.
Step 3: Send money to the bank
As soon as you have funded your GCash wallet, you will need to transfer funds to the bank account of your recipient. Through InstaPay, you or your recipient will receive the money instantly after transferring GCash to their bank account.
