Globe Telecom has announced a significant upgrade to its services for international visitors with the launch of its Traveler eSIMs, now available at the company’s airport booths nationwide. The initiative is designed to provide inbound tourists with immediate, convenient, and hassle-free mobile connectivity from the moment they arrive in the country.
Immediate Connectivity Upon Arrival
Addressing a common need for travelers, Globe now allows tourists to convert any of its Prepaid Traveler SIM packages into an eSIM version directly upon arrival. For an additional fee of ₱99, visitors can activate their mobile service digitally on their eSIM-compatible devices.
This process eliminates the need to find an ejector tool and swap out small physical SIM cards, a common inconvenience for those just getting off a long flight. It also allows travelers to retain their primary SIM in their device, enabling them to receive important calls or messages from their home country while using the Globe eSIM for local data.
Available Data Plans
To cater to diverse travel needs and durations, Globe offers a range of 5G-ready eSIM packages with varying data allocations. The options available at airport booths include plans with 20 GB, 30 GB, 80 GB, 120 GB, 139 GB and 169 GB of data, ensuring that both short-term visitors and long-stay tourists can find a suitable package.
Here is a comparison of the eSIM plans from the Globe website:
| Data Plan | Price (PHP) | Validity | Notes |
| 20 GB | 500 | 15 Days |
|
| 30 GB | 750 | 15 Days | |
| 80 GB | 1,500 | 30 Days | |
| 120 GB | 2,000 | 30 Days | |
| 139 GB | 2,500 | 30 Days | |
| 169 GB | 3,000 | 30 Days |
Beyond providing seamless data access, Globe is enhancing the value of its tourist plans by bundling them with lifestyle benefits. All Globe Prepaid Traveler SIMs, both physical and eSIM, now include a complimentary Foodpanda voucher. This voucher grants tourists a 50% discount on food transactions, encouraging them to conveniently explore the Philippines’ rich local cuisine.

Arrival area of Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminals 1 and 3, Clark International Airport, Mactan-Cebu International Airport, Caticlan Jetty Port, or at over 800,000 Globe retail partners nationwide.
For tourists who prefer to arrange their connectivity before their flight, the Traveler eSIM is also available for purchase through the GlobeOne mobile application. This dual-channel approach provides maximum flexibility for international visitors arriving in the Philippines.
