Cap Routing: When InstaPay Becomes the Right Rail
The audit desk classifies InstaPay as the default routing layer for ₱100,000 to ₱250,000 — above the GCash daily cap and below the InstaPay per-tx ceiling. Bingo and slot jackpot settlements in this band route to InstaPay on first-payout-certified operators by default. Above ₱250,000 the rail switches to BDO.
Pipeline Audit: Three Segments, One Rail
Operator queue contributes 4 minutes at the median. The InstaPay rail itself contributes 28 minutes — driven by the ₱500,000-batch processing window across PH banks. User notification contributes 2 minutes. Combined: 34 minutes. The P90 of 92 minutes lines up with cross-bank batch retry.
Title Routing Patterns Observed
Cash-outs from 90-ball bingo and slot max-win settlements that breach the GCash cap default to InstaPay across the window. Inside the GCash band, the operator routes to GCash for the 9-minute median. Operator-side rules can update mid-month.
