Tourism is a great source of income for a country.. not only for the government but also for the residents.. That is why Globe Telecom has renewed its partnership with a TPB tie-up to help everyone in the tourism sector.
With the Traveller Sim, tourists can easily keep themselves connected to the digital world and share their experiences with family and friends
The International Business Group of Globe Telecom with its partner the Tourism Promotions Board (TPB) of the Department of Tourism launches its Visit the Philippines Again (VPA) 2016 campaign.
With the partnership, Globe will once again offer its Globe Traveler SIM to millions of tourists and returning OFWs for free for affordable and worry-free connectivity during their stay in the country. Globe is TPB’s first Philippine telco partner to offer affordable communication services to millions of foreign tourists and Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) returning to the country with the Globe Traveler SIM, a local prepaid SIM that offers affordable local rates for mobile data, calls, and SMS services.
