“May load ka pa?” A Mother’s Weekly Ritual and an Unexpected Discovery

Commuting in Baguio during the rainy season
My college student, walking to the jeepney terminal along Asin Road.

It’s a question I ask my daughter almost every Monday morning before she leaves for school.

Meron pa, Mommy,” would be her usual answer. She’s already in college and has her own fully verified GCash account. I usually send her money through GCash, and she buys her own prepaid load. She commutes every day: walking to the jeepney station along Asin Road, riding into town, then walking to campus. This rainy season, commuting in Baguio can be a hassle. Slippery sidewalks, crowded jeepney queues, and sudden downpours have become part of the daily routine.

As a parent, I know I can’t be with her every step of the way. But knowing she’s just a message or call away somehow makes the day a little less worrying. That’s why I was pleasantly surprised to learn that buying prepaid load through GCash can also come with free health and accident insurance for eligible users. It’s one of those benefits I probably wouldn’t have discovered if it hadn’t become part of our weekly routine.

If you’re already using GCash to buy your prepaid load, it might be worth taking a look. Here are a few things to know:

  • Eligible users are fully verified GCash users aged 18 to 65 who buy prepaid load for themselves through the GCash app and opt in to the free insurance offer.
  • The free coverage includes accidental death benefits, disability benefits, and hospital income assistance, subject to the program’s terms and conditions.

  1. Awww how time flies! Parang kelan lang high schooler pa lang sya.🥲 SAME! I send my son’s allowance through GCash also; bahala na sya if magwiwithdraw sya, basta sa kanya na mababawas yung ₱15-₱18 na withdrawal fee😄, or he can choose to pay using GCash or QR code.😊
