Why do I need to unlink GCash from Google?

You need to unlink your GCash account from your Google Play Store Account if you do not want to opt to automatic monthly billing from your GCash account.

Some people may forget to cancel their subscription resulting in automatic payments. A lot of people have complainned about this since there’s no notification before payments.

How to remove other automatic GCash payments

To remove any recurring payment from deducting an amount from your GCash balance, you need to unlink it manually from each app.

If you are not sure which apps are trying to charge you, transfer your GCash balance to your GSave account when not using it.

Once you have received an unsuccessful payment notification, check your Google Play account for the apps with subscriptions or check the apps with in-game purchases.

Also, check your email for previous successful purchase receipts.

I have already unlinked GCash, but why am I still being charged?

If you are still receiving successful or unsuccessful payment notifications after unlinking your GCash account from Google Play, it is more likely due to other apps.

You may have connected some of your app accounts directly to your GCash account, so you still need to disconnect them.

If you have used your GCash MasterCard or AMEX virtual card for previous payments, they can also be a source of payment requests since they only draw funds from your GCash account.

Conclusion

It is easy to connect to and unlink your GCash account from your Google Play Account.

Use it only when necessary and keep track of app subscriptions to avoid unexpected charges on your GCash account.
