Giga.Tel eSIM Data Plans for Philippines

No unlimited data eSIM plans are offered by Giga.Tel for travelers in the Philippines. All available plans provide a fixed data allowance of 50 GB and range from 7 to 30 days of validity, with several options that include reduced speeds after a certain threshold and tethering allowances.

If a bigger data capacity is needed, Giga.Tel’s fixed‑data plans can be a more cost‑effective solution, as they avoid the higher price of an unlimited offer. For example, the 50 GB plan that is valid for 30 days costs $28.99 USD, and the 50 GB plan valid for 15 days costs $26.99 USD. These represent only a subset of the plans available and provide a good trade‑off for most travelers who do not require truly unlimited data.

Giga.Tel does not offer a local phone number or SMS capability for its Philippine eSIM plans. All available plans are data‑only, so travelers cannot place or receive traditional voice calls or text messages with a local number.

Without a local number, users can still communicate using VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection. However, some destinations, including the Philippines, may block or restrict access to certain VoIP services, so travelers should verify that the apps they rely on work in the specific areas they intend to visit before purchasing a Giga.Tel eSIM.

Giga.Tel provides 58 single‑country data plans for the Philippines and 57 multi‑country plans that include Philippine coverage. The plans vary widely in price, ranging from about $1.95 to $229.15, and in data allowance, from 100 MB up to 50 GB. Some options deliver a fixed data amount for the duration of the validity period, while others impose a daily data cap. The full selection also includes features such as tethering, with speed limits of 128 Kbps, 384 Kbps, or 5000 Kbps on certain plans.
