Ayala-backed Globe Telecommunications Inc. is launching its digital eSIM by the end of the month, a move that the company said will usher in a new era for users as it will further simplify their mobile experience.
In a press statement, the company said the new offering is part of its user-centric technological solutions to complement a nationwide push for digitalization.
"The prepaid eSIM captures our vision of a seamless, digital-first mobile experience, marrying innovation with convenience," Darius Delgado, head of Globe's Consumer Mobile Business, said.
Globe's eSIM will be solely available via the GlobeOne app which will enable users to easily request an eSim. It allows users to install multiple eSIMs on selected devices and use two phone numbers at the same time.
Multiple devices
Additionally, the eSIM can also be used in devices other than mobile phones such as smartwatches, allowing seamless connection under one mobile number.
For instance, the technology is available to the Apple Watch cellular, allowing Globe Prepaid iPhone users to go out with just their Apple Watch and stay connected even without bringing their iPhones.
By digitalizing the SIM process, Globe conveyed that eSIM technology can eliminate the need for plastic, and logistics required to create a physical SIM and cut down its associated carbon emissions.
