Unused data can now be transferred as reward points in Gcash, says Globe


Globe Telecom said today, 25th March that unused mobile data can now be converted to reward points or credits to “maximise” money’s worth.

This feature is called “GB to Points”. It allows postpaid and prepaid users to convert their remaining data into rewards points which can then be used to redeem other goodies and offers GCash has.

Other than this, this leftover data can now be converted to GCash.

“Kung hindi mo magamit, magagamit mo sa ibang bagay… Mapapakinabangan mo siya, walang sayang, walang tapon. Lalo na sa panahon ngayon na lahat ng tao nago-optimize,” said Issa Cabreira, Deputy Chief Commercial Officer of Globe.

(translate: If you can’t use [your data], then you can use it for other things. It’s convenient, nothing is wasted, nothing is discarded. Especially in this day and age that everyone is optimising)

To avail, users can download Globe’s Globe One or Globe Rewards app. Below are some sample conversions:

  • Prepaid Users: 1GB = 1 reward point
  • For Postpaid Users: 1GB = 10 reward points
  • For Home Prepaid Wi-Fi users: 3GB = 3 reward points.

There are a variety of Globe rewards, including discounts on different dining, online stores, movie services like Viu and Netflix, and logistics like GrabFood.
