If you want to transfer your PayPal money to your GCash account, you need first to link it to your GCash. Correct me if I am wrong but, I am not sure whether you can link an unverified PayPal account to GCash, because my PayPal was already verified when I created this tutorial. But, you can still try. On the other hand, the good thing when cashing in money from PayPal is that, there is no fee. What you cash in is what you get.


Requirements


  • Verified PayPal account (I am not sure, but I you can still try even your PayPal is unverified, who knows)
  • Your active phone number must be connected or enrolled in you PayPal account
  • Verified GCash account

What are the benefits of Linking your PayPal account to GCash?


  • You can easily transfer money from PayPal to GCash account. As you can see, not all of my earned money online is coming from Google Adsense. I am also earning money from other advertisers and they are paying me through PayPal.

Here are the steps to link PayPal to your GCash account.


1. Login to your GCash account and tap Profile.

5. PayPal will warn you about the linking process. The linking will authorize your GCash account to transfer funds from PayPal to G-xchange INC account (also GCash), and obtain your PayPal account balance (you can always view your current PayPal balance inside GCash when it is already linked and the balance is in Philippine Peso). Just press the Authorize button to confirm.
