“With customer-centricity as our guiding principle, we are giving our global customers access to fast data speeds through these partnerships with international telco firms in key markets. This will empower them to pursue their passions and fulfill their purpose as COVID-19 restrictions ease across borders– reviving international travel and tourism as more people get vaccinated and adapt to the new normal,” said Chet Alviz, Vice President Wireless Core and International Business Group at Smart.

Smart 5G roaming subscribers in these countries can subscribe to Smart’s GigaRoam 1GB roaming plan for only Php 999 valid for 5 days. To subscribe, simply visit gigaroam.smart.com.ph or download the GigaLife app.
