After a few months of not being able to pay bills because of the community quarantine, the queue in payment centers is much longer than it used to be. Thankfully, paying bills online is now a thing. Now, once you’ve received your bill, you can simply pay your bill using your mobile device at the comfort of your home. This will save you the trouble of having to go out, waiting in line and spending time you could have spent doing something else.

There are multiple ways to pay your bills online and one of them is through GCash, an online wallet.

In this post, we’ll show you how to pay your water bill (Maynilad) throuh GCash. To be able to do this, you simply need a GCash account with enough funds to cover the bill you have to pay.
