Hi @Herminio0 

 

Yes, by using  Gcash Amex Virtual Pay.

 

Steps:

To activate your AMEX Virtual Pay Card, follow the steps below:

  1. On your GCash app, tap Profile
  2. Select My Linked Accounts
  3. Tap American Express Virtual Pay
  4. Enter your email address and wait for an SMS to confirm your registration.
  5. For existing AMEX Virtual Pay holders, tap Get New Code
  6. Save and take note of your new code to continue using AMEX Virtual

Hi, I tried using the GCash AMEX Virtual Pay as payment option for my AirBnb Booking, but the payment still wouldn't go through.

Hi @Herminio0!

 

Have you contacted Airbnb customer support about this to ask? You can chat with them over on the Help Center here. An up-to-date list of accepted payment types is here as well. 

@Patricia2526 or @Bea2137 do you have any experience with gcash as a payment method or have you heard anything about it?

hello Breanna,

 

Customer support was more concerned about reservations. They also referred me to the list you mentioned. The Philippines is not yet included in that list. Thank you, Breanna.
