Cignal prepaid load to the Philippines — sent in minutes

With Fonmoney you can send a Cignal prepaid load to the Philippines without opening an account. Cignal is the country's satellite TV service, so reach doesn't depend on cable — the box picks up the signal from a dish, even in towns the cable lines never reached. Enter the account number, pick the amount, pay.

Cignal runs prepaid TV on a load-and-watch basis: a load keeps the channels active for its validity window, then the account waits for the next reload. Whether your family back home is on a smaller pack or one of the bigger HD Cignal prepaid plans, Fonmoney handles the reload. Pay by credit or debit card. No hidden charges added at checkout.

  1. 1
    Enter the Cignal account number — the account number printed on the box or set-top receiver you want to reload.
  2. 2
    Choose the load amount — pick the reload that matches the Cignal TV account in the Philippines you are topping up.
  3. 3
    Pay by card — complete the payment with your credit or debit card, or paysafecard where available. Fonmoney sends the load directly to the Cignal account.

What our customers say

"My parents' Cignal ran out right before the basketball finals. I reloaded it from here in Italy and my dad messaged me two minutes later to say the channels were back. He was relieved, I was relieved."

"I wasn't sure I could reload a TV box from Australia, only the account number, no phone. But it worked the same day and my mum's teleseryes were back on. Happy I tried Fonmoney."

Cignal TV Philippines — What you need to know

About Cignal

Cignal is the largest direct-to-home (DTH) satellite TV provider in the Philippines, launched in 2009 and run by Cignal TV, Inc. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of MediaQuest Holdings, the media arm of the PLDT group, and with more than two million subscribers it is the country's most-subscribed pay-TV service. Because the signal comes off a satellite dish rather than a cable line, Cignal reaches homes across the archipelago, including towns the cable networks never wired.

Cignal offers both postpaid and prepaid TV. On prepaid, you keep the box active by loading it: a load switches the channels on for its validity window, and when that runs out you reload to keep watching. The electronic loading runs on the Smart Communications network, which is why Cignal reloads move through the same prepaid rails as Smart and TNT.

Cignal prepaid plans

Prepaid loads come as fixed denominations, each tied to a channel pack and a validity period — most run for 30 days:

  • Plan 450 — entry HD pack, around 5 HD plus 59 SD channels, 30-day validity.
  • Plan 500 / Plan 600 — mid HD packs with more HD channels, 30-day validity.
  • Plan 800 / Plan 1000 — larger HD line-ups with sports and movie channels, 30-day validity.
  • Lite Loads — short 2-day loads for a quick top-up between bigger reloads.

Channel line-ups and prices change from time to time, so the recipient sees the current pack for each denomination on their box. A Cignal prepaid load from Fonmoney applies straight to the account — the recipient picks how to use it on their end.

CIGNAL EXP <account no.> → 5353Check the current load expiry and balance
CIGNAL REG <account no.> → 5353One-time registration before the first SMS reload

Satellite TV coverage

Cignal works wherever the box has a clear view of the satellite, so coverage runs nationwide rather than following the cable map. That makes prepaid Cignal a common choice for families in provinces and rural areas — and a reason relatives abroad often handle the reload for them.

Fonmoney and Cignal

Fonmoney sends each load directly to the Cignal account — no middleman between your card and the service. The load appears in minutes and you receive a confirmation by email. If a load doesn't arrive, we have the full transaction record to track it down.
