Internet usage must comply with the Fair Usage Policy (FUP). If excessive usage in a short period of time causes a surge in traffic, telecom operators have the right to regulate it, which will cause a short-term speed reduction or network disconnection. It is recommended to turn off automatic app updates and automatic video playback on your phone.
International Fair Use Terms To ensure that all users have fair access to mobile network services at all times, each telecom operator has its own fair use agreement to regulate fair network usage. When a user uses too much data in a busy network area within a short period of time, causing other users to be unable to use the network normally, the telecommunications company may temporarily limit the speed. Our company will not be able to intervene and your mobile network may be temporarily affected. To ensure normal use, please try to avoid watching videos for a long time or updating software and other tools that consume a lot of data.
Please be aware that the quality of Internet access may be affected by factors such as location, terrain, building shielding, number of users and weather.
Please remember to turn off data roaming on the original SIM card to avoid using the mobile network of the original SIM card and incurring high roaming charges.
Cancellation Policy
- Once the order has been completed, it cannot be canceled, modified, or refunded

Please allow 2–5 business days to process your cancellation request, after which the cancellation fee will be charged according to the product’s cancellation policy.

FAQ
Yes, eSIM technology is widely available for travelers in the Philippines. Most modern smartphones support eSIM, allowing visitors to access local mobile networks without needing a physical SIM card. This offers convenience and immediate connectivity upon arrival, with various data plans tailored for tourist needs.
When selecting an eSIM plan for the Philippines, consider your expected data usage, the duration of your trip, and your coverage needs. Look for plans with sufficient data for navigation, communication, and social media. Verify the supported local network providers to ensure reliable coverage in your planned destinations, especially if traveling to remote areas.
Using an eSIM in the Philippines offers several advantages over international roaming. eSIMs eliminate the need to swap physical SIM cards, reducing the risk of loss. They often provide more competitive local data rates, which can be more cost-effective than standard roaming charges. Additionally, you can keep your home number active for calls while using the eSIM for data.
Setting up an eSIM for the Philippines typically involves purchasing a plan online, receiving a QR code via email, and scanning it with your device's camera. After scanning, follow the on-screen prompts to add the cellular plan. Activation usually occurs automatically upon connecting to a network in the Philippines, providing instant access to data services.
eSIM users in the Philippines can expect good network coverage in major cities like Manila, Cebu, and Davao, as well as popular tourist destinations. Speeds are generally 4G LTE, suitable for browsing and streaming. Coverage in more remote islands or mountainous regions may vary, so checking the network's local partner's coverage map for specific areas is advisable.
The installation process for an eSIM for the Philippines is straightforward and convenient. Once you receive your eSIM's QR code, go to your phone's cellular settings, select "Add Cellular Plan" or "Add eSIM," and scan the QR code. Your device will guide you through adding the profile. This setup avoids handling physical SIM cards, making it quick and hassle-free.
The amount of data needed for an eSIM in the Philippines depends on your usage habits. For light use (messaging, occasional browsing), 1-3GB per week might suffice. Moderate users (social media, maps, some video) may need 5-10GB per week. Heavy users (frequent streaming, video calls) should consider 15GB or more for a week-long trip.
Travelers can easily purchase an eSIM for their trip to the Philippines through online travel platforms like KKday. These platforms offer a range of eSIM plans, allowing you to compare data allowances and durations. Purchasing through KKday provides the convenience of instant digital delivery, meaning you receive a QR code immediately after purchase for quick setup, eliminating the need to wait for physical delivery or pickup.
