917Ventures digital innovations help Filipinos

917Ventures helped Filipinos push through with different digital solutions including GCash, KonsultaMD, HealthNow, RUSH, AdSpark, and PureGo. These became new lifelines for Filipinos during the pandemic.

GCash helps its 40 million users securely send money and pay for goods and services online. It also empowers many small businesses to survive and thrive through cashless solutions. GCash was also one of the channels used by the government to safely distribute financial assistance to Filipinos through its Social Amelioration Program.

GCash also added features such as GLife, GInvest, GInsure, GSave, and GCredit to cover different needs and services. KosultaMD and HealthNow also gained momentum as health and safety became a key focus for everyone. Consultations made through KonsultaMD increased by 461 percent in 2020 compared to the previous year. The HealthNow app, on the other hand, has been downloaded more than 240,000 times as of its August 2020 launch.

Purego is a quick and easy grocery shopping app from 917Ventures. Launched in December 2020, consumers can virtually order anything using the app, from pantry essentials to household necessities all sourced directly from Puregold. Multiple payment options including GCash are available, and items are delivered within 24 hours.

AdSpark and RUSH help accelerate the digital footprint of brands through digital advertising solutions, customer engagement, loyalty, and rewards programs, giving added value to businesses and their customers.
