Globe will launch by the end of the month its fully digital eSIM (electronic subscriber identification module) for pre-paid which will ease activating and managing mobile services.
The eSIM will be solely available via the GlobeOne app.
This shift to a digital-only model ensures that Globe’s customers are spared the inconvenience of store visits or physical SIM delivery, making the transition to the eSIM both sustainable and efficient.
An eSIM allows users to install multiple eSIMs on selected devices and use two phone numbers at the same time. Plus, the eSIM can also be used in devices other than mobile phones such as smartwatches, allowing seamless connection under one mobile number.
This 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 iPhone.
By digitalizing the SIM process, eSIM technology can eliminate the need for plastic, and logistics required to create a physical SIM, and cut down its associated carbon emissions.
