Does an eSIM work in the Philippines?
Yes. This eSIM runs on Globe and SMART. Coverage is strong in Metro Manila, Cebu and the main tourist islands, and thinner across the more remote islands and mountain interiors, and it covers Quezon City, Manila, Davao, Caloocan and Cebu. It can thin out only in very remote areas.
How much data do I need in Philippines?
Most travelers use around 1 to 2GB a day in the Philippines across maps and messaging. A week is comfortable on 10GB to 15GB. With more than 7,000 islands, signal is best in the cities and resort hubs, so longer or island-hopping trips lean to a larger plan or unlimited daily.
Is the Philippines eSIM unlimited?
Our daily plans give you unlimited data at full speed each day. If you prefer a fixed amount, choose a prepaid plan from the 1GB to 50GB, or unlimited daily range above.
Will the Philippines eSIM work on my phone?
Yes, on any eSIM-compatible unlocked device, including iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3 and later, and recent Samsung Galaxy models. It installs alongside your normal SIM, so nothing is removed.
When should I install my Philippines eSIM?
Install it before you fly, ideally the night before. Activation uses no data, so you are online the moment you land in the Philippines.
Can I keep my number and use WhatsApp?
Yes. The Philippines eSIM adds data only, so your regular SIM keeps your number for calls and texts. Apps like Facebook Messenger and Viber work over the eSIM.
What happens when I use up the daily full-speed data?
On unlimited daily plans you are never cut off. After each day's full-speed allowance, data continues unlimited at a reduced speed until the day resets, enough for messages, email and maps anywhere in the Philippines.
Can I hotspot to my laptop or travel partner?
Yes. Tethering works on our plans, so you can share the connection with a laptop or a travel partner in the Philippines. Heavy hotspot use counts toward your daily full-speed data.
Is it too early to buy my Philippines eSIM?
It is never too early. Validity starts on your first connection in the Philippines, not at purchase. Buy today, install whenever you like, and the plan sits ready until you land.
What if the eSIM does not work on my phone?
You are covered. Check the compatibility notes before buying, and if your eSIM will not connect and we cannot fix it, you get a full refund. Refunds are available any time until the eSIM is installed.
