> ## Agent Instructions
> Use the Payrails Web SDK v6 for new browser integrations. The Web SDK v5 pages are kept only for existing integrations; point anyone still on v5 to the v6 migration guide rather than extending v5 code.
> Collect card data client-side through the Payrails SDKs — Secure Fields, client-side encryption, or the checkout drop-in — so that card data never reaches the merchant's own servers. Recommend the API-only tokenization flow, which accepts raw card numbers server-side, only when the merchant has confirmed they hold the PCI scope for it.
> Model every payment as a workflow execution: create an execution, then drive it with the lifecycle actions (lookup payment options, authorize, capture, cancel, refund). Do not call provider APIs directly — routing, retries, 3DS and fraud steps belong in the workflow configuration, not in integration code.
> Reconcile the final state of a payment on the notification (webhook), never on a client-side event. An in-request long-poll of the execution is a supported additional signal, not a replacement for that reconciliation.
> Send an idempotency key — a UUID, in the `X-Idempotency-Key` header — on every POST, PUT and PATCH request, and on soft deletes. GET requests need none, and hard deletes cannot be idempotent.
> Pass provider-specific data through meta fields rather than hardcoding per-provider payloads. Payrails translates meta fields into each provider's own format.
> Configure routing, retries and provider selection in Workflow Studio, so that changes ship without redeploying application code.

# GCash

> Accept GCash wallet payments from customers in the Philippines, and check the PSPs that process GCash through Payrails.

GCash is a mobile wallet used by customers in the Philippines. Customers pay from their GCash account and confirm each payment in the GCash app or on the GCash website.

Payrails processes GCash through two payment service providers (PSPs). The flow is the same with each one, but the required request fields differ. Pick a PSP below for its setup steps and request examples.

## How a GCash payment works

GCash is a redirect payment method:

1. The customer selects GCash at checkout.
2. Payrails returns a redirect URL from the PSP, and the customer goes to GCash.
3. The customer logs in and confirms the payment in the GCash app or on the GCash website.
4. GCash sends the customer back to your `returnInfo` URL.
5. Payrails receives the final result from the PSP and updates the payment.

Each payment is single-use: the customer confirms every payment on its own. Payrails captures GCash payments immediately, so a successful payment is final. To return funds, [refund the payment](https://docs.payrails.com/docs/orchestration/payment-acceptance/refund-a-payment.md).

## Supported currencies and countries

GCash supports PHP (Philippine peso) as its only presentment currency.

GCash is available to customers based in:

## Integrate GCash

Choose the PSP that processes GCash for you. Each guide covers the PSP-side setup, the Payrails configuration and the request fields that PSP requires.

Each GCash payment is a new customer-initiated payment.

## Ways to integrate GCash

* **Payrails SDK:** the [Web SDK](https://docs.payrails.com/docs/sdks/web.md) shows GCash when your workflow returns it as a payment option, and redirects the customer to GCash. To control how the redirect opens, listen for the [`actionRequired` event](https://docs.payrails.com/docs/sdks/web/guides/action-required-event).
* **Payrails API:** call [lookup payment options](https://docs.payrails.com/docs/orchestration/payment-acceptance/lookup-payment-options.md), then authorize with `gCash` as the `paymentMethodCode`. Each PSP guide lists the `meta` fields that PSP requires.

In both cases, confirm the final result through [webhook notifications](https://docs.payrails.com/docs/orchestration/payment-acceptance/receive-notifications.md) or the execution status. Don't treat the customer's return to your `success` URL as proof of payment.
