A brief rundown of Over-the-Counter Cash Agents
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Operated by | Separately BSP-accredited, independently owned agent networks handle this instead of one operator: Cebuana Lhuillier, Palawan Pawnshop, M Lhuillier and Philippine Seven Corporation’s CliQQ counters in 7-Eleven among them, each contracted on its own by individual wallets and billers. |
| Regulated by | Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas |
| Wallet limit | Not applicable to this rail |
| Per-transaction cap | Not applicable to this rail |
| Settlement | counter cash changes hands right away, while the linked wallet’s credit takes anywhere from minutes to a full banking day depending on which institution receives it |
| Published fees | Not published |
No shared rail exists, hence no rail-wide fee; the rate comes down to whichever agent network and receiving wallet are involved. None of Cebuana Lhuillier, M Lhuillier or Palawan publishes a matching consumer schedule, so the free-to-PHP-8,000-then-2-per-cent OTC pricing stays a GCash charge, not theirs.
These numbers reflect one moment, recorded 2026-09. The provider’s own page is the only current source, because payment providers revise limits and fees without notice.
Verification tiers
This section lists no verification tiers for Over-the-Counter Cash Agents, since none turned up in a published source. It’s still standard for regulated Philippine e-money accounts to require identity verification, and an account without it usually explains a lower-than-expected limit.
Consumer-facing tiers are absent from these networks altogether. BSP Circular No. 1230 of February 2026 pushed the enhanced due diligence trigger for cash withdrawals up to PHP 1,000,000 from an earlier PHP 500,000, a change that runs parallel to the Anti-Money Laundering Act’s rule making a cash transaction above PHP 500,000 a covered transaction subject to a mandatory report. These obligations bind the institution, not the customer, and reach across BSP-supervised institutions rather than singling out cash agents.
