The collaboration will enable Filipinos in North America and Europe, including the UK, to send money directly to GCash wallets in the Philippines.
The partnership positions LemFi as one of GCash’s official remittance partners for these regions.
According to Raymund Abog, LemFi’s Head of Growth for South East Asia, the service features zero transfer fees, competitive exchange rates, no minimum transfer limits, and delivery in minutes.
The integration offers an affordable method for Filipinos living abroad to send financial support to their families. The funds can be used to cover everything from bill payments and mobile data top-ups to other everyday expenses.
GCash, which has a reported 94 million active customers, has expanded its offerings to include payments, savings, credit, and insurance. The company recently introduced its GCash Overseas service, allowing users to register with international phone numbers.

“Our kababayans abroad want speed and reliability. This partnership delivers both, while making financial support feel immediate and intentional,” said Paul Albano, GCash International General Manager.
This announcement follows several recent developments for LemFi. They include a Series B fundraise and the acquisition of a remittance licence in Europe.
Philip Daniel, LemFi’s Head of Global Expansion and Growth, commented on the company’s broader goals.
“Our mission is to make international payments easier, quicker, and more inclusive. This partnership with GCash is a milestone for us, especially in connecting global Filipinos to trusted financial tools they already use.”
LemFi and GCash officially announced the collaboration at a community event in Toronto.
