Globe Roaming Unveils Exclusive Travel Bundle, More Affordable With Insurance Protection

 

 

Globe is redefining the experience for Filipino travelers with an exclusive offer that combines two essentials: affordable connectivity and reliable protection in one unbeatable package. Through its partnership with Oona Insurance, Globe introduces a travel protection bundle that gives customers seamless data roaming and insurance coverage for as low as Php49 (with Php1M coverage) and Php109 (with Php2.5M coverage), making it one of the most accessible and affordable bundles in the market today.

 

“With Globe Roaming, you’re not just connected but also protected,” said Paula Rivera-Castillo, Head of Globe International Business. “This bundle sets a new standard in travel convenience, affordability, and peace of mind. Whether you’re a Prepaid or Postpaid customer, you can now travel confidently with reliable data roaming and comprehensive insurance coverage, all in one seamless tap.”

 

The Best Way to Travel

 

Unlike standalone eSIMs, local SIMs, or separate insurance plans that leave travelers managing multiple providers and higher costs, Globe’s 2-in-1 bundle offers unmatched value. With Globe Roaming, customers enjoy the ease of staying connected and protected wherever they go, without the hassle of buying services separately.

 

Coverage is thoughtfully designed to fit every journey, with flexible options that match the validity of roaming packs, whether for a quick getaway, a week-long trip, or an extended stay abroad. Beyond data, Globe delivers peace of mind through reliable protection and dedicated customer support.

 

"Travel insurance shouldn’t feel like an afterthought, it should move with you. Our collaboration with Globe is another step in making protection more intuitive and built around real journeys, not paperwork. That’s the future we’re building at Oona,” Ashish Arora, Chief Marketing and Partnership Officer, Oona Philippines.

 

Tap to Book

 

Booking the bundle is simple and seamless. Customers can open the GlobeOne app, tap Shop, and select their destination country. From there, they can choose a roaming pack that matches the length of their trip. Once confirmed, the insurance benefit is automatically included, removing the need for additional steps. A confirmation is instantly received, and after entering their travel details, the policy is sent directly to their email, ensuring travelers are connected and protected before their flight.

 

By booking in advance through GlobeOne, customers can travel worry-free, knowing they’re covered from the moment they depart. The Globe Roaming Travel Insurance bundle reaffirms Globe’s role as more than a telco, it is a holistic travel partner for Filipinos around the world.

 

“Globe is proud to offer the ultimate travel essential that makes global journeys simpler and safer,” added Rivera-Castillo. “This is our way of showing how we care for our customers, by freeing them in choosing between affordability and security because they get both.”

BDO backs agri expansion for food security

“Food security and nutrition have always been at the heart of our purpose,” said Tennyson G. Chen, Chairman of Bounty Fresh Group Holdings, Inc., one of the country’s largest fully integrated poultry producers. We entered the agri-food space to contribute to these national priorities while helping professionalize and boost the local poultry sector.”

From a modest family-run enterprise, Bounty Fresh Food has grown into a leading force in agri-food, with brands like Bounty Fresh and Chooks-to-Go becoming household names. Known for pioneering traceable, antibiotic-free poultry production, the company has built a nationwide food system that is both resilient and inclusive.

Behind much of this growth is a decades-long partnership with BDO Unibank Inc. (BDO). The Bank has supported Bounty Fresh’s expansion, from local infrastructure upgrades to major international ventures such as the acquisition of New Zealand’s Tegel Foods. BDO’s financing has helped modernize operations, enhance logistics and establish new facilities nationwide, creating livelihood in rural communities.

“BDO has played an important role in enabling Bounty’s growth over the years. From everyday banking and cash management needs to strategic milestones, they have been a valuable part of our journey,” added Mr. Chen.

Charles M. Rodriguez, BDO Unibank’s Executive Vice President and Head of Institutional Banking Group emphasized the Bank’s broader commitment. “At BDO, supporting companies like Bounty Fresh Food goes beyond financing. We share a vision of nation-building – one that empowers communities and uplifts the lives of Filipinos.”
