Globe Starlink is a service that connects compatible LTE/4G/5G phones* to satellites when there are no nearby cell towers for texts and data. A Globe Starlink promo is needed for this connection.
*Availability may vary by device model and software version. iOS support is not yet available.
When Globe’s regular mobile signal from ground-based cell towers is unavailable outdoors, your compatible device can connect to satellites for essential connectivity and texts. Support for iOS is coming soon.
When a regular mobile signal becomes available again, your device automatically switches back.
