Giga.Tel eSIM Data Plans for Philippines

Giga.Tel does not provide an unlimited data eSIM plan for the Philippines. Travelers who need more data can choose from the company’s fixed‑data plans, which offer sizable allowances such as the 50 GB packages available for 7, 15, or 30 days. For example, the Philippines – 50 GB – 7 days (Activate within 90 Days) plan costs $23.99 USD, provides 50 GB of traffic, and includes tethering with a reduced speed penalty of 128 kbps. These fixed‑data options can be more cost‑effective for most users unless the traveler is an extremely heavy data consumer who would otherwise require an unlimited plan.

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 66 single‑country data plans and 82 multi‑country data plans for travelers in the Philippines.
The plans cover a price range from $2.00 to $248.99 and data caps that vary between 100 MB and 50 GB.
Some of the offerings are fixed‑data plans, where the subscriber receives a set amount of data that does not reset, while other options use a daily data cap that replenishes at the start of each day. Both types allow for tethering, and certain plans may incur reduced speeds of 128 Kbps or 384 Kbps, or a speed limit of 5 000 Kbps.
