(SPOT.ph) Maya, formerly known as PayMaya, is one of the commercially available e-wallets to Filipinos. While this single platform already has a suite of services, we say it's best to use multiple e-wallets for different reasons or payment options. And yes, you can transfer money to and from different banks and e-wallets. In this guide, we show you how to transfer funds from Maya to GCash.
You might have first heard of the e-wallet as PayMaya. They rebranded to Maya in late 2022 in line with it growing from its initial main focus as a payment central to an all-around digital banking platform. It took the Maya Bank's digital banking products and services and integrated it with PayMaya's payment platform to turn into Maya, a "revolutionary, game-changing, and relevant digital financial service" it said online.
