Smart Prepaid eSIM Price
Smart’s Prepaid eSIM costs only P99 and comes with up to 21 GB of free data, 30 minutes of All-Net Calls, and 100 All-Net Texts. This lets users get online and contact family and friends immediately.
On the other hand, mobile users can get a Smart Postpaid eSIM starting at SIM-Only Plan 999, which includes Unlimited 5G for 12 months, Unlimited All-Net Mobile Calls and Texts, Unlimited Landline Calls, and Netflix Mobile Plan access for 12 months.
The Smart Prepaid and Smart Postpaid eSIMs are easy to use and work with the latest eSIM-capable phones from Apple, Google, Huawei, and Samsung, among other brands. Since there is no physical SIM card, eSIM users won’t have to worry if their gadget doesn’t have a SIM slot or if they lose or damage their physical SIM.
Also, the eSIM lets people have more than one line, even if their phone, like an Apple device, only has one physical SIM slot. With the eSIM, they can easily switch between two or more SIM cards or accounts on their iPhone.
With Smart’s digital delivery option, foreign tourists, returning OFWs and Balikbayans can easily order their Smart Prepaid eSIM before their trip and activate it when they arrive to enjoy data, call, and text services at much lower local rates than roaming rates.
