“Today we are enabling more mobile users to get hold of an eSIM with the widest and most flexible options in the market: whether they prefer prepaid or postpaid, whether they want the digital version or the printed card version, whether they want to order via the Smart Online Store or purchase it personally at their trusted retailer, and however they want to pay for it,” said Alex O. Caeg, Head of Consumer Business – Individual at Smart..
Smart will continue to offer its Prepaid eSIM on printed cards in selected areas, such as airports, Smart Stores, online platforms like Lazada and Shopee, and accredited retailers. Postpaid customers can also get their eSIMs personally at Smart Stores nationwide.
Benefits of using an eSIM
An eSIM is a digital SIM that is embedded in a device. It is compatible with the latest eSIM-capable handsets from Apple, Google, Huawei, Samsung, and other brands. It offers several advantages over a physical SIM card, such as:
- No need to worry about losing or damaging the SIM card
- No need to insert or remove the SIM card from the device
- Ability to switch between multiple lines or SIM profiles on one device
- Ability to order an eSIM online and activate it instantly
Smart’s Prepaid eSIM costs only P99 and comes with up to 21GB of free data, plus 30 minutes of all-net calls and 100 all-net texts. Smart’s Postpaid eSIM starts at SIM-Only Plan 999, which includes unlimited 5G for 12 months; unlimited all-net mobile calls and texts; unlimited landline calls; and a Netflix Mobile Plan subscription for 12 months.
Foreign tourists, returning OFWs, and Balikbayans can also order their Smart Prepaid eSIM online before their trip and activate it upon arrival to enjoy local rates for data, call, and text services.
The new Smart eSIMs will be available on the Smart Online Store starting today, September 27, 2023.
