Anyone may be caught off-guard by sudden expenses during the Christmas rush. You have already planned your budget for gifts, but now you need extra cash for your office kris kringle, your upcoming Christmas parties, shopping for Noche Buena or perhaps just to grab some snacks to wait out the holiday traffic jam. Even though you are good at budgeting, there are times when you need some extra cash to get you by. 

With less than a hundred days until Christmas, finance app GCash introduces GCash Sakto Loans, a nano-loan option that enables eligible GCash users to borrow small amounts for as low as P100, ideal as 'pambale' during the holiday season.

With no additional requirements needed, this loan product helps eligible GCash users immediately get extra funds right when they need it, without the need to borrow from other people.
