Frequently asked questions about sending load to the Philippines

What our customers say

The Philippine mobile market — and how Fonmoney covers it

The major networks

The Philippines has more than 80 million unique mobile subscribers, and the market is overwhelmingly prepaid. For years it was a two-player game: Globe Telecom and PLDT's Smart Communications together hold roughly 85% of active SIMs. A third operator, DITO Telecommunity, launched commercially in 2021 and has grown its share to around 16% as it builds out its tower network.

Below the three big names sit several sub-brands and budget networks. TNT (Talk 'N Text) runs on the Smart network and targets value users; Sun Cellular was folded into Smart after PLDT's acquisition of Digitel. On the Globe side, TM (Touch Mobile) and Cherry Prepaid — an MVNO powered by Globe — serve the mass-market segment. FreeBee rounds out the budget end. Beyond mobile, many Filipino households also reload Cignal TV, the country's main prepaid DTH satellite service.

How prepaid load works in the Philippines

"Load" is the local word for prepaid credit. Once it lands on a number, the subscriber spends it directly, or uses it to subscribe to a bundle through a network menu — usually dialed via a USSD code:

• Globe / TM / Cherry Prepaid — bundles managed via *143# (Globe) and *139# (Cherry).
• Smart / TNT / Sun — bundles managed via *123#.
• Cignal TV — prepaid loads keep a DTH account active for a fixed validity, typically a 30-day cycle.

The point: a straight load is universal. It works on any network, and the recipient decides how to spend it — calls, texts, a data bundle, or keeping a Cignal subscription running.

SIM registration (RA 11934)

Since the SIM Registration Act (Republic Act No. 11934) took effect in 2022, every prepaid SIM in the Philippines must be registered with its network before it can be used. Unregistered SIMs are deactivated. Registration is a one-time step the SIM owner completes through their network's portal — it doesn't affect topping up. Once a number is active, Fonmoney can send load to it from abroad as normal.

Fonmoney across all networks

Fonmoney connects to every major Philippine operator, so you don't need to know the technical details. Enter the number, and the right network and load options appear automatically. The credit is sent straight to the number — no middleman between your card and the operator. It appears in minutes and you receive an email confirmation. If a load doesn't arrive, we have the full transaction record to track it down.
