Globe Telecom provides a variety of promotional offers, freebies, and rewards to its subscribers through digital channels and app-based redemption systems. These offers range from data add-ons and connectivity tools to vouchers for retail and entertainment services. Based on the available documentation, the following guide outlines the types of freebies available, eligibility requirements, and methods for accessing these promotions.
Digital Promotions and App-Based Rewards
One of the primary methods for accessing freebies is through the Globe At Home App. The "Shake and Win" promo allows users of the Globe At Home Prepaid WiFi to earn promo codes by loading specific data promos via the app.
- HomeSURF199: Loading this promo provides one promo code.
- HomeSURF599: Loading this promo provides two promo codes.
- HomeSURF999 and above: Loading these promos provides three promo codes.
These codes can be redeemed for various freebies, including: * Shopping and Delivery Discounts: Grab Express vouchers (P30 off for every P150 transaction), P50 QR vouchers in GCash, and 10% off on Shopee. * Entertainment: 15-day VIP access to iflix and HOOQ for family movie nights. * Travel and Dining: Vouchers for Eatigo, Traveloka, and Zen Rooms. * Education: A free one-month online course from Shaw Academy.
The app also facilitates easier loading of Prepaid WiFi and tracking of data usage.
Globe Rewards Program
Globe subscribers can redeem earned points for a variety of rewards. The rewards program includes data packages, call and text bundles, and vouchers for services such as Grab and McDonald's. The available documentation indicates that specific item codes, point costs, and validity periods are defined for each reward. Subscribers can access this list to determine which rewards are available for their point balance.
SSL Certificates
Globe offers Globe FREE SSL Certificates, which are Domain Validated (DV) certificates designed to secure websites, intranets, and extranets. Key features and limitations of the free SSL offer include:
- Security Level: 128/256 bit encryption.
- Trust Indicators: Trusted by over 99.3% of internet users; includes a GlobeSSL Website Seal.
- Limitations: The free SSL does not carry a warranty and does not authenticate the business behind the website (unlike Full Business Validation solutions). It is intended as a 30-day trial to test functionality before upgrading to a professional solution.
- SEO Benefit: The documentation notes that HTTPS encryption, provided by SSL certificates, is a positive factor for search ranking positions.
Emergency and Disaster Relief Offers
In the event of natural disasters, such as Typhoon Crising and monsoon rains, Globe provides communication aid to affected subscribers. Eligibility and offers vary by subscription type:
- Prepaid and TM Customers: Free unlimited calls and texts to all networks, 100MB of data for all apps, and an additional 100MB for Facebook and Viber. Valid for one day.
- At Home Prepaid WiFi: 5GB of free open data for three days.
- GFiber Prepaid: A three-day promo extension.
- Postpaid Customers: Payment due date extensions.
Additionally, subscribers are encouraged to donate "Globe Rewards" points to the Ayala Foundation’s Hapag Movement via the GlobeOne app or GCash.
Mobile Data Plans and Add-ons
Globe offers various mobile data plans and add-ons for subscribers. These plans include call, text, and data allowances with validity periods ranging from one week to 30 days. Subscribers can purchase additional data, call time, or text allowances as add-ons to existing plans. Instructions for renewing or extending existing plan subscriptions before expiration are provided by Globe.
Subscription Management
To stay updated on new offers, users can subscribe to newsletters, such as the one offered by Hearts Unite the Globe, which provides downloadable informative flyers. Users are required to provide an email address and consent to privacy policies to receive these updates.
