To activate globe roaming packages, you have to register for a data roaming promo with your country of destination.

How to make call while roaming

To make a call with a prepaid plan dial the full international number. It means including the country code and area code before the phone number itself. 

For example, dial “1316327301000” and also for a mobile phone dial “131639178000000” and then press SEND.

How to send messages while roaming

Before you travel:

  • Call your phone company and ask them to turn on “international roaming” for your phone number. This lets your phone send texts from other countries.
  • Consider purchasing a roaming package that offers a set amount of texts or minutes for a specific duration. This can be cheaper than per-message charges.

When you’re traveling:

  • Turn on “data roaming” on your phone. This lets your phone connect to texting services in other countries.

How Prepaid users activate Globe 5G Roaming

  • Search through the available Roam Surf promos within the GlobeOne app. Look for promos that specifically mention 5G data roaming access.
  • Once you’ve chosen your preferred promo, proceed with the registration and payment process within the GlobeOne app. Make sure you have enough load to cover the cost of the promo.
  • When you arrive in the country, turn on Mobile Data and Data Roaming.

Not all countries have 5G yet, so you have to check if your destination has 5G coverage through Globe’s website or by contacting customer service.
