MORE practical

For Clint T. Henarios, using GCash may not be the best option for him because there is a P10.00 transaction fee. He is planning to pay via Metrobank or Security Bank so he will not incur any fees. Michael De La Peña, counters that for unbanked users, paying P10.00 as service fee for GCash is way more practical because they can cut the money for commute or gasoline, skip the lines and simply use their smartphones to complete the payment. Clementyn Nardo agrees that the fee is reasonable because subscribers are using the application.
