Philippines-based fintech platform GCash has rolled out a financial literacy programme in partnership with 10 universities, targeting students across the country.
The initiative, titled “The GMindset: Gear Up Your Financial Game”, is designed to help students develop long-term saving and investing habits.
GCash has confirmed partnerships with seven universities so far, including the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP), Far Eastern University (FEU), Adamson University (ADU), the University of the Philippines, Ateneo de Manila University (ADMU), and Centro Escolar University Manila (CEU).

The first two bootcamps, held at PUP and FEU, drew close to 500 students. Sessions covered financial goal-setting and savings, as well as advanced topics such as investment psychology.
“Many young Filipinos are eager to learn how to manage their money but don’t always have access to the right platforms and guidance,” said John Garcia, Head of Customer Success for Wealth Management at GCash. “By making financial literacy more engaging and accessible, we want to help the next generation of young Filipinos build the confidence to save and invest.”
The on-site programme also offers support for students to register for GCash services such as GSave and GInvest.
