GCash, the Philippines’ leading finance super app, and Oona Insurance Philippines are expanding their partnership to bring more insurance solutions to millions of Filipinos, reinforcing their shared commitment to financial inclusion through digital innovation.
Starting this month, GCash users can access a wider range of Oona insurance offerings designed to meet essential needs, from health coverage to travel protection.
Both GCash and Oona are focused on reshaping how Filipinos interact with insurance by removing traditional barriers like costs, complexity, and inaccessibility. By leveraging GCash’s digital reach and Oona’s flexible and customer-centric products, the partnership empowers users to take control of their financial security in just a few taps.
New Oona products on GCash include:
- Critical Illness (CI) Insurance – Covers cancer, heart attack, and stroke, the top three critical health risks in the Philippines. Customers can purchase individual coverage (starting at PHP 51/year) or a bundled plan (PHP 145/year) for all three.
- Comprehensive Travel Insurance – Offers up to PHP 5 million in coverage for medical emergencies, trip cancellations, and lost belongings. Comes with a complimentary Smart Flight Delay upgrade. Starts from PHP 299.
With these additions, users can now protect themselves and their families from health emergencies and travel disruptions—all through a platform they already trust for everyday financial needs.
“Central to achieving our vision of ‘Finance for all’ is enabling millions of Filipinos to have access to insurance and helping them protect what matters most in their lives. With like-minded partners like Oona, we’re taking concrete steps to help further expand insurance penetration in the Philippines, which currently stands at less than 2%,” said Winsley Bangit, Group Head of News Businesses at GCash.
“With this expanded partnership, we’re not just offering insurance, we’re changing how it’s experienced,” said Ninoy Rollan III, CEO of Oona Insurance Philippines. “By making protection simple, affordable, and digital, we’re helping more Filipinos take charge of their financial well-being. Through GCash, insurance is fast becoming part of everyday life – accessible, relevant and right at people’s fingertips.”
This latest rollout builds on the success of Oona’s Smart Flight Delay Insurance on the GCash app, which gives travellers complimentary lounge access for flight delays of 60 minutes or more.
GCash’s scale and accessibility, combined with Oona’s innovative insurance products, are helping close the protection gap across the country. Whether it’s a medical emergency or a delayed flight, Filipinos now have more ways to stay protected—right from their mobile phones.
