| Published fees | Maya’s cash-in page sets the free threshold for selected-partner cash-in at a combined PHP 8,000 monthly, charging 2 per cent on the amount above it. This number, pulled from Maya’s own site but not re-fetched during verification, ranks below the GCash schedule above in reliability, since that one was read directly. |
Maya states these as MONTHLY wallet limits. As stated by GCash, the ceiling reflects a balance held at any given time. These two numbers, measuring different things, don’t yield a meaningful side-by-side comparison, whatever how frequently that comparison gets made.

What Maya says about gambling transactions
Maya’s e-wallet terms and conditions, checked directly, hold no gambling clause — just general prohibitions covering illegal activity and anti-money-laundering breaches. Suspension or cancellation of the card is the stated consequence for ‘illegal gambling or unauthorized game of chance,’ a restricted transaction under its separate CREDIT CARD terms. Maya was another company covered by BSP Memorandum M-2025-029 in August 2025, and it removed in-app gambling and gaming links as a result. Because the two products differ, a limit written into a credit card agreement leaves the wallet unaffected.
How fast money actually moves
Maya settles immediately for wallet-to-wallet or InstaPay, and only by the same banking day through PESONet. Rather than the casino, it’s the rail that this describes: withdrawals can wait in an operator’s internal review ahead of Maya, and that’s typically where the delay originates.
A per-transaction cap of The Upgraded tier permits PHP 50,000 daily for outgoing InstaPay transfers and PHP 20,000 per transaction sent to another Maya user. applies, which is why a larger transfer sometimes has to be split.
