Did You Know That You Can Use GCash to Book Victory Liner’s Buses and Courier Services?

Since the onset of the pandemic, we’ve had to make countless lifestyle adjustments. Face masks and face shields have become almost like a second skin, while temperature checks and contact tracing are now just another part of our daily routine. As for the countless transactions we make on a regular basis? Third-party delivery services and cashless payment channels have since become our best friends.

During these challenging times, two particular brands have significantly helped us ease into this new normal. Firstly, one of the country’s leading bus lines, Victory Liner, has gone above and beyond to cater to their customers; to name a few things, they’ve strengthened their health and safety protocols, offered private bus rentals, and made delivering cargo across Luzon so much easier. Mobile wallet GCash, on the other hand, has become a go-to for both personal and business transactions. With so many cash-in options and an easy-to-use mobile app, GCash has allowed for a smooth transition to a more cashless lifestyle.

The great news? Victory Liner and GCash, two of the most important services during the pandemic, have come together to offer more cashless payment options to customers.

Victory Liner accepts GCash for cargo and bus tickets

Aware of the rising need for safer transactions, Victory Liner has been rolling out more and more cashless payment methods. To add to their lineup of options including but not limited to the Victory Liner Premiere Card, GCash is also accepted in select bus terminals and Drop & Go outlets.

More Victory Liner services in line with the new normal

Apart from taking strides to create more contactless transactions, Victory Liner has continually been expanding their services in order to meet their customer’s needs in the new normal. As one of the country’s leading provincial bus companies, they have gone way beyond offering transportation services from one point to another.

For instance, now that local destinations such as Baguio and Zambales are slowly reopening for tourism, Victory Liner offers travellers a safe mode of transportation for worry-free travels. They even offer on-site RT-PCR and antigen tests at the Cubao terminal to help passengers meet their travel requirements!

To add to this, Victory Liner has continued to improve their Drop & Go cargo padala service, which has been around even before the COVID-19 pandemic. Until today, they continue to open more outlets around Luzon in order to reach more customers — they’ve also partnered with Bicol Isarog to reach residents in parts of Visayas! Moreover, they’ve upgraded the service and provided a door-to-door delivery option, DGman, for select areas.

The best part? Now, we can avail of all their services through contact-free, cashless payments. When it comes to our travel- and courier-related needs, we can trust that we’re in good hands with Victory Liner.
