April 13, 2022 9:14 p.m.
Just as we are slowly trying to put the COVID-19 pandemic behind us, the Russia-Ukraine conflict came into play and disrupted global markets once again, causing a steep rise in the prices of oil and other commodities. Despite these challenges, we long to move forward and do the things we love.
The Globe Group is fortunately a step ahead and is ready with a variety of platforms, solutions and promos that will continue to enable Filipinos’ everyday experiences while creating utmost value for customers.
Here are just a few services designed to empower Filipinos through the many challenges they face:

Now ingrained into Filipinos’ daily routines, GCash has become a “lifeline” and is synonymous with accessible payment and financial services that have truly helped us get through the pandemic. It has become an indispensable partner to pay our bills and do other errands from home safely and conveniently.
GLife, for instance, puts together various merchants and brands into a single page within the GCash dashboard. This means there will be no need to switch apps or create different accounts to order or shop online.
GLife is ushering more and more Filipinos into the digital lifestyle with a platform that gives access to shopping, food, financial services and more in just one app.
If there is one service that allows you to save on fuel costs while still making the most of your day, GCash is definitely it.
“Globe’s platform of digital services has been put together with the customer’s specific needs in mind. We are providing digital solutions designed to make everyday life easier and more fulfilling for Filipinos,” said Globe President and CEO Ernest Cu.
He said the Globe Group will continue to expand its services and adapt its promos and offerings to suit the ever-changing global situation.
