If you’re planning a trip to the Philippines, the leading mobile provider, Globe, has the perfect solution to keep you connected.
Globe is revolutionizing travel connectivity with its prepaid Traveler eSIM, offering international visitors a convenient and cost-effective way to stay connected as soon as they arrive in the country.
The Globe Prepaid Traveler eSIM can be purchased in advance, even before travelers embark on their journey to the Philippines. It is initially available for iOS devices and will soon be compatible with Android. This digital-first approach simplifies the connectivity process compared to traditional physical SIM cards and eliminates the need to wait in airport queues. Once tourists complete the SIM registration upon arrival, they can immediately access Globe’s reliable mobile network.
Darius Delgado, Head of Globe’s Consumer Mobile Business, emphasized the innovation, saying, “With the Traveler eSIM, Globe once again leads the way in telecom innovation. We always strive to meet the changing needs of our global customers, and this offering is a direct response to that. Our goal is to ensure that every international visitor enjoys a seamless and enhanced connectivity experience right from the start.”
Tourists who choose the Globe Prepaid Traveler eSIM will enjoy the exceptional performance of the Globe network, recognized as the most reliable in the Philippines. This recognition comes from Ookla®, a global leader in network intelligence and connectivity insights, which has identified Globe as the Philippines’ Most Reliable Mobile Network for five consecutive times.
The Globe Prepaid Traveler eSIM is easily accessible through the GlobeOne app, which conducts a compatibility check to ensure that travelers’ devices are eSIM-ready. Through the app, travelers can have a superior eSIM experience by downloading and installing the eSIM immediately upon purchase. This means that travelers can have the eSIM ready even before arriving in the Philippines.
In compliance with the SIM Registration Act, all Traveler eSIMs must be registered and are valid for up to 30 days. If tourists plan to stay longer, they can easily reload or purchase another eSIM through the GlobeOne app.
Eric Tanbauco, Head of Globe’s Mobile Prepaid Business, expressed the company’s commitment to innovation and providing a high-quality connectivity experience for international visitors. “We’re not just offering a product. We’re delivering a promise of consistent, high-quality, and seamless experience for every traveler in the Philippines.”
For travelers whose devices do not support eSIM, traditional SIM cards will be available in airport terminals upon arrival, ensuring that all travelers’ connectivity needs are met.
