Maya Business vs GCash for Business in Philippines

Merchant decision question

Use this when wallet acceptance in the Philippines is a top checkout decision, separate from generic PSP selection.

When GCash for Business may fit

Choose GCash for Business if GCash wallet/QR acceptance is the higher-priority customer route and onboarding is confirmed.

What to verify before integration

Confirm local entity, local bank account, KYB documents, supported merchant categories, and foreign merchant eligibility with each provider.
Ask for supported checkout flows, refunds, chargebacks, reconciliation exports, webhooks, plugins, and production support commitments.
Confirm settlement timing, payout currency, FX handling, reserves, tax invoices, and all contract fees in writing before launch.
Validate the exact payment methods needed for the market instead of assuming country coverage equals method coverage.

Pricing and settlement note

Published pricing is suitable for initial screening only. Actual pricing can vary by country, industry, volume, settlement currency, integration model, and contract terms. Confirm the official pricing page or a provider quote before going live.

Do not treat country coverage or brand support as proof that a specific merchant entity, industry, payout currency, or settlement workflow is available.
