5G, DATA AS CURRENCY, CLOUD AND OTHER INNOVATIVE OFFERS
Globe recognizes the challenges its customers continue to face given the current state of the pandemic. To support them, the company launched first-to-market innovations that redefine telco experiences.
“Today, Filipinos have better connectivity with truly proactive service here and abroad, powered by the fastest-growing 4G network in the country. More advanced technologies are also in place such as 5G and fiber plus pervasive network improvements,” said Globe’s deputy chief commercial officer Issa Guevarra-Cabreira during the first Globe Innovation Fest.
The recent launch of Globe’s 5G roaming services in the United Arab Emirates and Thailand are set to continue with upcoming launches across Asia, the Middle East, North America and several countries in Europe. The 5G roaming service is available to Filipinos traveling internationally, as well as subscribers of select foreign telcos visiting the Philippines.
Data as currency
With the internet as a new essential, Globe has introduced data as currency in the Philippines. This applies to any Globe product whether mobile, Home Prepaid WiFi, or Reward for loyalty. With GBs to Points, customers can soon start converting their unused gigabytes to Globe Rewards points via the GlobeOne app.
Globe Postpaid introduced the new GPlan with GCash which gives customers GCash credits, which they can spend for anything they want and need—whether it’s content subscriptions, shopping vouchers, or even home essentials like robot vacuums. Mobile and life essentials are combined in any GPlan type.
Globe Postpaid will also make available soon special offers using the iQiyi app, one of the world’s leading online movie and video streaming websites for Korean and Chinese TV dramas, movies, variety shows and Japanese anime. iQiyi VIP offers will be available in GlobeOne and GCash apps next month.
Meanwhile, Globe At Home is boosting its plans’ speeds so customers may enjoy a faster and robust connectivity experience at home. It has also ramped up its entertainment and health freebies through its Unli Fiber Up plan with speeds of up to 100 Mbps.
