Ease the holiday stress when you use GCash Sakto Loans for your small but important needs

As much as the holidays are the most magical season of the year, the hustle and bustle of Christmas preparations can often leave one feeling overwhelmed, especially when it comes to managing holiday expenses. With the need to buy gifts for friends and family, plan Christmas dinners for your loved ones, and plan reunions with friends, the costs just keep adding up. And just when you thought you’d planned it well, there are small yet unexpected expenses that call for extra cash.

While you deal with the hectic Christmas rush, GCash Sakto Loans has you covered. Sakto Loans is an extension of GLoan, GCash’s instant cash loan, and GGives, its light and flexible buy now pay later loan, which serves as an entry-level loan for those who are not yet eligible to borrow larger amounts on the app but are in need of small amounts to expand their budget. With no additional requirements needed, eligible GCash users can immediately get extra funds right when they need them, without having to go through the hassle of borrowing from other people.

Here are 5 scenarios where GCash Sakto Loans come in handy during the holiday rush:

1. Buying gifts for your inaanak 

You’re at the mall and already at the end of your gift list, only to find out you missed one inaanak with no budget to spare! Seeing as you’re already finishing up your Christmas shopping, GGives Sakto is the quick fix to complete your gift list. With GGives Sakto, you can borrow PHP 300 - PHP 1000 to pay for your purchases through QR in physical stores, online or even through GLife partner stores.

2. Grabbing post-shopping snacks 

The expectation might be finishing your Christmas shopping in one go so you can go home for dinner. But the reality may be getting stuck in a long queue and ending up tired and hungry so you have to grab a quick bite. With no extra budget for the impromptu food stop, GLoan Sakto is the perfect solution where you can borrow that cash straight to your GCash wallet to satisfy your cravings.

3. Contributing to a simple yet thoughtful Christmas potluck 

The holiday season is when every barkada goes on an impromptu catch-up after months or years of spending time apart. With unplanned meet-ups and simple catch-ups with friends, you can’t help but be prepared, even if budget-wise, you aren’t.

With GLoan Sakto, you can borrow instant cash for as low as PHP 100, PHP 300 or PHP 500 to help you worry less and enjoy the holidays and catching up with friends more.

Visiting Christmas attractions and going to different gatherings is fun, but when it’s time to relax and go home, you realize that the holiday rush has gotten with the transportation system too. If you need extra cash, you can use GLoan Sakto to top up transportation credits without worrying about interest and the hassle of waiting in line and keeping up with the surge of people.

5. Elevating your simple salu-salo with relatives 

Seeing your relatives might be exciting, but it brings on the pressure to impress.
