Coming into the holiday season, the country’s leading mobile wallet provider GCash have partnered up with The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf (CBTL) to enable customers to be able to scan to pay with the GCash App. Instead of paying in cash, all a customer needs to do is open the GCash App, point their smartphone’s camera at the GCash QR code located at a partner merchant’s counter, and input the amount to pay to settle the transaction.
On top of being able to pay with the GCash App, CBTL is also one of the first coffee chains in the nation to support Alipay QR payments, letting international customers who have the Alipay App installed on their phones to be able to pay as well. This feature is currently available in select branches, with all others to follow this year.
