P2P trading in the Philippines
In the Philippines, peer-to-peer trades mostly settle with GCash and Maya, or InstaPay transfers between banks and e-wallets. On Peerlyx you trade with other people at the price they set, with the crypto in escrow until the pesos arrive.
What to know in the Philippines
- GCash, Maya and InstaPay are usually instant. Batch bank transfers can arrive after the payment window, so choose an instant method.
- Double-check the mobile number and account name in GCash or Maya before you send.
- Wallet limits in GCash and Maya depend on your verification level there.
What is Tether?
USDT, or Tether, is a stablecoin designed to keep the same value as one US dollar. People use it to hold dollar value, send money abroad and move between coins without the price swings of Bitcoin.
On Peerlyx you buy USDT straight from another person at a price they set in PHP, so you can pay by GCash or Maya, the way you already pay in the Philippines.
