Grab PH Users Can Now Cash in with Their Cryptocurrency through PDAX, Triple-A Partnership


Manila, Philippines, 22 July 2025 — Grab users in the Philippines can now top up their GrabPay wallets using Cryptocurrencies. This is made possible by Grab’s partnership with payments provider Triple-A and local digital asset exchange PDAX.


Crypto top-ups into the GrabPay e-wallet were initially launched in Singapore in 2024 through Grab’s partnership with Triple-A, a firm that enables businesses to facilitate payments in digital currencies.


Building on this success, Triple-A teamed up with PDAX to bring a new level of convenience and flexibility to Grab users in the Philippines by enabling this innovative cash-in method. 


Users can top up their GrabPay wallets using an array of cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), US dollar-backed stablecoin USDC, and USDT.


Cashing in on Grab via crypto can be done in a few simple steps:

  1. Select ‘Cryptocurrencies’ as the cash-in method on the Grab app.

  2. Choose a token and network from the supported list of cryptocurrencies and stablecoins.

  3. Enter the amount in pesos, and review the conversion rate and transaction details.

  4. Send the tokens from your preferred crypto wallet to the provided address.

  5. Top-up confirmed. Funds are instantly reflected in your GrabPay wallet.


Eric Barbier, CEO of Triple-A, shared: “We had a successful launch of GrabPay top-ups with cryptocurrency in Singapore. The response has been fantastic. Now, we're looking forward to bringing this service to the Philippines, a market that's ready for digital currencies. This is a big step in making digital currencies easier to use in everyday life across Southeast Asia.” 


CJ Lacsican, Vice President for Cities and Head of the Grab Financial Group in the Philippines, shares, “Integrating cryptocurrency as a cash-in option for GrabPay reflects our commitment to advancing financial inclusion in the Philippines. By offering more accessible, digital-first solutions, we aim to empower a wider spectrum of Filipinos — especially those with limited access to traditional banking or those who prefer the convenience of digital currencies.” Other cash-in methods for GrabPay include e-wallets, online banking via InstaPay, linked bank accounts, debit and credit cards, and select convenience stores and business centers.


Meanwhile, PDAX is an all-in-one wealth platform. With millions of users nationwide, it provides access to digital assets and modern investment solutions, empowering progressive Filipinos to take charge of building their own wealth through cryptocurrencies, tokenized bonds, and other digital assets. Nichel Gaba, PDAX CEO shares, "The Philippines has one of the largest crypto user bases globally. Through this partnership, we're thrilled to offer accessible use cases that will both support the existing crypto community and drive greater adoption of cryptocurrency." 


This tripartite partnership strengthens safe and secure crypto transactions in connection with everyday services like on-demand mobility and deliveries — with Triple-A licensed by organizations like Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN); and PDAX regulated by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, ensuring that every top-up meets global standards for cybersecurity, fraud prevention, and data protection.

CoinSwap Space: A New PancakeSwap Challenger

CoinSwap

CoinSwap Space is looking to provide the market with a more professional BSC DEX as compared to Pancakeswap. Interestingly, this will prove attractive also to new arrivals in crypto. Especially, the ones who invest their money in more traditional-looking applications.

Similar to PancakeSwap, CoinSwap offers a whole host of DeFi features. CoinSwap is an automatic marker maker (AMM) allowing users to trade crypto without an order book. Users on CoinSwap can earn money by staking, contributing to liquidity pools, and by yield farming. Soon the platform will offer a revolutionary version of lending. CoinSwap utilizes smart routing that ensures clients will receive the best swapping rates, slippage, and price impact available.

Multi-token ecosystem

There are two tokens within the CoinSwap ecosystem. The first is the main utility token, the CSS token. Users will earn the second token, CSS-LP token, by contributing to CoinSwap’s liquidity pools. These CSS-LP tokens can then be staked in any of CoinSwap’s many yield farming pools.

A Fresh Set of Tokenomics

All of this will sound familiar to anyone who’s ever used PancakeSwap. However, CoinSwap has a lot of advantages over PancakeSwap. Firstly, and maybe most importantly, it is cheaper. PancakeSwap trading fees are 0.25% while CoinSwap can offer the same service at 0.2%. Given that the primary reason that people navigate to BSC is low fees, this might prove a huge selling point for CoinSwap.
Secondly, CoinSwap has a completely different set of tokenomics. Ones that might make it a much more attractive proposition for investors. Like PancakeSwap, the token has a burn-at-stake model. However, CSS token value has utility as well rather than just burning in the case of Cake. CSS tokens also have the market’s lowest hard cap of 19,999,999 making it a truly deflationary asset.

CoinSwap is also one of the very few which has been insured and audited already before launch by Certik, a leading security-focused ranking platform. Using a Formal Verification technology, it provides rigorous audits, smart contracts, and blockchain protocols to ensure resistance against hackers. The successful audit represents a huge show of confidence in the security of CoinSwap Space’s technology. It will set at ease the mind of any potential investors looking to stake their tokens, especially when you consider the professional clientele it wishes to attract.

The Next Big Player in the BSC Ecosystem

The BSC ecosystem is still very new, even in the context of crypto. As crypto, and DeFi in particular, becomes more mainstream, the low fees and strong tokenomics will attract more and more serious investors. Until now, BSC did not have a DEX that could truly cater to these investors. Now it does. CoinSwap Space provides a professional interface, granting access to secure, audited smart contracts allowing users to access all the features of DeFi.

CoinSwap Space: A Promising Startup That Can Take On Any DEX In The Future

CoinSwap

As a startup project, CoinSwap Space created a great impact among many people, especially those in the DeFi and crypto space.

During the launch, last April 30, CoinSwap Space made a lot of early investors. Taking their chances to become one of the early adopters of the $CSS token.

CoinSwap Space only released a total initial supply of 400,000 $CSS tokens, which will be fully utilized for initial liquidity.

But as a startup, it is unavoidable for some issues to occur during the launch, and most of them are technical issues like APR, Friend Referral Count, wallet connectivity and others, that were experienced by the early adopters or buyers.

Due to that incident, some investors and speculators became impatient and raised their complaints to the business, to which the community managers and admins addressed accordingly, telling them that this will all be resolved very soon.

And just recently, the APR issue and the referral counter have been addressed and resolved within a matter of hours.

Now, the project is aiming to work on its roadmap which deals with Data Protocols like Graph Integration, Top Indexing Protocol, and SDK development kit.

In conclusion, the overall launch was a success, and as a startup project that is being lined up to the likes of Uniswap and or Pancakeswap, CoinSwap Space may have a long way to go. But it is not impossible to reach its goal, especially that they are unique as a platform. Being an autonomous AMM, an incentivized DeFi Protocol and using BSC (Binance Smart Chain) Technology.
