Introduction

GCash uses a redirect-based payment flow. When a customer selects GCash at checkout, they are redirected to GCash’s app or web interface to authenticate and confirm their payment, then redirected back to your website or app upon completion. GCash is a single-use payment method where customers must authenticate each payment. This guide explains the process of integrating GCash into your app or website using Payrails.
