Many GCash users who primarily use the app for their online transactions, such as freelancers and online sellers, usually encounter problems with the default transaction limit of P100,000 per month if their income or sales increase. Also, if you’re constantly reaching the P100,000 transaction limit yourself, it may be high time increasing your GCash transaction limit to P500,000. So follow the steps in this guide on how to increase your GCash limit to 100k and 500k.

How to increase my GCash limit to 100k?
Increasing your GCash limit to 100k is easy to do by simply getting a fully verified GCash account. Once you have a fully verified GCash account, your wallet limit and incoming and outgoing monthly transaction limits increase to P100,000. In addition, you can access more GCash services that basic profiles don’t have, such as Send Money, Shop Online, and Bank Transfer. So if you don’t have a fully verified GCash account, follow the steps below.
