Grab users in the Philippines can now top up their GrabPay wallets using cryptocurrency, thanks to a partnership between payments firm Triple-A and local crypto exchange PDAX.
The new feature enables users to cash in with Bitcoin, Ether, USD Coin, or Tether, expanding digital finance options for those with limited access to traditional banking.
CJ Lacsican of Grab Financial Group emphasized that the move supports financial inclusion by offering more accessible, digital-first alternatives.
The feature, already successful in Singapore, marks a step toward mainstream crypto integration in Southeast Asia.
PDAX CEO Nichel Gaba said the service will help expand the practical use of digital assets among millions of Filipino crypto holders.
