Ang GCash ay maglulunsad ng one-time passwords (OTPs) sa app simula Hunyo 22, papalitan ang tradisyonal na mga verification code na via SMS bilang bahagi ng pagsisikap na palakasin ang seguridad ng account at labanan ang online na pandaraya.

Ang hakbang ay nagaganap bago ang deadline ng Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas sa Hunyo 30 na nag-uutos sa mga institusyong pinansyal na i-phase out ang SMS OTPs alinsunod sa Anti‑Financial Account Scamming Act (AFASA). Ang pag‑verify gamit ang SMS ay nagiging lalong madaling target ng mga phishing attack, SIM‑swap fraud, at iba pang mga scam.

Sa pinakabagong paraan, ang mga OTP code ay ipapadala sa pamamagitan ng ligtas na push notification sa loob ng naka-authenticate na GCash app. Pinapaalalahanan ang mga gumagamit na i-on ang push notification upang walang abala kapag nagche-check ng account o nagtatapos ng transaksyon.
