Globe, which sealed the partnership through its mobile commerce unit G-Xchange Inc. (GCash), said the tie-up would enable EMQ users to send funds to GCash account holders. Those users, in turn, can use the money to pay bills and make online purchases across 12,000 GCash partner outlets in the country.
