  • Note that the service fees are to be paid to Bolttech on a per-claim basis, not monthly. Bolttech is our device protection program partner for Gadget Xchange.


Only one device is covered under Gadget Xchange per Globe Postpaid account.


Lastly, Gadget Xchange is not considered insurance, therefore, standard insurance policies do not apply. This allows us to provide device switch and replacement without the need for any documentation.

How long is the coverage period of Gadget Xchange?

Each customer is only entitled to subscribe to the program for a maximum period of 48 months. This means that a device can be covered by Gadget Xchange for up to 48 months. After 48 months in the program, customers will automatically be opted out.

How can I apply for claims?

You may apply for claims at https://globe-gadgetxchange.bolttech.ph/ph/en/service which is managed by Bolttech. Payment of service fees will also be done through this website.

How can I cancel my Gadget Xchange subscription?

You can cancel your subscription anytime via the following:

  • Text keyword: GEX (monthly fee) 24 OFF to 8080
  • Globe store
  • Gadget Xchange call center ℅ Bolttech

Take note that, once opted out:

  • The monthly fee will not be prorated (no refunds), and therefore, will still be billed for the whole month
  • You’ll no longer be able to file a claim starting the next billing period.
  • You may no longer re-enroll your device in Gadget Xchange

Can I apply for Gadget Xchange again if I previously canceled my subscription?

If you cancel your subscription, you’re not allowed to apply again using the same account and/or device.

Will I be receiving a brand new device when I file for a device switch/replacement?
