BDO to GCash is a linked-bank cash-in, and the whole move takes a few minutes once the two accounts are connected. The money travels on the interbank networks, so the bank and not GCash decides the fee. If you came here after choosing GCash as a casino payout destination, the comparison of GCash and a bank transfer for the same cash-out explains why you would route money this way.

BPI and UnionBank follow the same pattern with their own fee and screens.

BDO to GCash in five steps

  1. Link your BDO account to GCash, using the bank-linking option in the wallet.
  2. Open the cash-in option and choose BDO as the source.
  3. Enter the amount you want in the wallet.
  4. Approve the request in your BDO banking channel.
  5. Wait for the GCash balance to update and keep the reference number.

The approval in step 4 happens on the bank’s side. Until you approve, GCash shows the request as waiting.

BPI to GCash

The pattern is the same, and the fee is specific. BPI charges PHP 15 on a linked-bank cash-in over InstaPay, so a PHP 5,000 top-up costs PHP 15 and lands as PHP 5,000 in the wallet.

Read BPI’s own fee screen before you confirm, because a bank can change its charge.

UnionBank to GCash

UnionBank charges PHP 10 on the same kind of linked-bank cash-in over InstaPay. That makes it the cheaper of the two named banks by PHP 5, since 15 minus 10 is 5.

For BDO, the fee is whatever BDO’s own fee page and approval screen state. This page prints no BDO figure.

GCash bank transfer: fees, caps and timing

A GCash bank transfer into the wallet rides one of two networks, and the network sets the speed and the cap.

NetworkCapTiming
InstaPayPHP 50,000 per transactionReal time, around the clock
PESONetNone across the schemeSame banking day before the cut-off

The sending bank can charge on either network, and the receiving side pays nothing. For the long form on how the networks move money between two banks, see the bank to bank transfer routes in the Philippines.

What your wallet will accept

The wallet has its own ceilings, and a top-up that exceeds them stalls.

GCash tierWallet ceilingIn per month
BasicPHP 10,000PHP 5,000
Fully VerifiedPHP 100,000PHP 100,000

Add the amount to your current balance before you start. A PHP 60,000 balance plus a PHP 50,000 top-up is PHP 110,000, which is over a Fully Verified ceiling of PHP 100,000. The reference entry on GCash as a casino payment rail lists the higher tiers.

When BDO to GCash stalls

Problem

The bank shows debited and GCash shows nothing

Fix
Wait for the cut-off if the transfer went over PESONet, then raise the reference number with GCash and with the bank.
Problem

The request keeps waiting for approval

Fix
The approval has to be completed in the bank’s own channel. Open it, find the pending request and approve it.
Problem

The top-up is rejected

Fix
Check the amount against the wallet ceiling and the monthly inflow of your tier, and lower the amount.

FAQ

How do I transfer money from BDO to GCash?

Link BDO to your GCash wallet, choose the bank in the cash-in screen, enter the amount and approve it with your bank's own authentication. The credit arrives instantly over InstaPay. BDO's own fee table shows what it charges.

How much does BPI to GCash cost?

BPI charges PHP 15 on a linked-bank cash-in over InstaPay. UnionBank charges PHP 10. Other banks set their own figure, and you read it on the cash-in screen before you confirm.

How long does a bank to GCash transfer take?

Over InstaPay it settles in real time, around the clock. Over PESONet it settles within the same banking day if the instruction beats the cut-off. The rail the bank uses decides, not GCash.

Bakit hindi pumasok sa GCash ang galing sa bank?

Tingnan kung na-confirm mo sa bank app, at kung lampas sa cut-off ang PESONet. Keep the reference number para sa dispute.
