Tennis Phenom Alex Eala says "The Hapag Movement has been feeding a lot of Filipinos that are experiencing involuntary hunger (100 thousand families to date), and with Globe Rewards, we can help feed them if you donate through your rewards points. You can do this now on the Globe One App."

It's not just about innovating, but getting the needs of the nation and Globe is being ahead of its time. Anne David, Anna Baldos, Moriah Ganzonand Pete Fernandez  from Globe were there to answer questions.

The fact that they can own assets on MetaverseGo platform, there's an opportunity for Filipinos to earn from it."

Globe also presented the relaunched 0917 Lifestyle brand with a whole fashion show, they've got pretty good merch. I like the oversized shirts and sweaters. I like the oversized shirts and sweaters.

GLOBE x Blackpink: Get Ready for the YG PALM STAGE - 2021 BLACKPINK: THE SHOW

 

Seoul South Korea's very own BLACKPINK composed of Rosé, Jennie, Lisa and Jisoo is making our pandemic times more bearable as they just recently held the GLOBE x BLACKPINK "The Opening Act" event on KmmunityPH group on Facebook. This is just the a taste of what's about to happen in the YG PALM STAGE - 2021 BLACKPINK: THE SHOW concert which will happen on January 31, 2021 via global livestream. The ladies last went live about a year ago in Fukuoka, Japan but since COVID hit, this new experience of seeing them online is going to be just as good. Albeit pushed back a few months from its original date because of Korea's travel and COVID-19 restrictions, the ladies will be in full force for THE SHOW this month and they are bringing it.

This is their first livestream concert prepared by YG Entertainment in partnership with YouTube Music. Fans are expected to also participate in the concert online, so if you're one, you better catch this quick! About the drone show, it was extremely nice of Globe to make sure Filipinos won't be left behind in starting the festivities as they also hosted this awesome opening act for Blinks old and new in the country on their Facebook community. For those who don't know, YG has been known for mounting jaw dropping live shows and they've dedicated much time to make this particular concert even bigger, better, while you stay at the comforts of your own home.

 About the event, it was extremely nice of Globe to make sure Filipinos won't be left behind in starting the festivities as they also hosted this awesome opening act for Blinks old and new in the country on their Facebook community (we were then informed they will reschedule the drone show on a later date because of some technical difficulties). Candy Gamos hosted the show and even read some lucky BLINKS messages live. Fans also get the chance to win tickets to the first livestream show as the promo for it has been extended. All you have to do is register to the specified promos, register and get the chance to see them live online in concert. This partnership with Globe and Blackpink is just amazing! Speaking of which, they showcased the latest Globe x Blackpink commercial, they even said a piece in Filipino!

 

 

They said "We are excited to be part of the Globe family, please join us to join the reinvention revolution, choose to reinvent yourself, your goals and anything you want. Reinvent yourself with Globe. Mahal namin kayo!"

 Here's the commercial!

 

By the way, during the stream, they also gave random BLINKS and Globe fanatics initially 20 tickets for the show. Instead, they ramped up and got 1000 The Show tickets (seen here). Now that means a lot of Blinks and Globe fans will get membership access and see the event! That's awesome!

I even joined the contest but I wasn't picked, but that's okay... I still have a lot of years to see Jisoo hahaha. Hey again, make sure you get tickets for the YG PALM STAGE - 2021 BLACKPINK: THE SHOW concert on the 31st. Go reinvent your world!

 

I'm pretty sure, it'll be worth it!

 

You Can Transfer Funds for Free with GCASH

I'm sitting here in a coffee shop rushing for articles I should have made last week because the big construction chores at home had me occupied... I couldn't finish em all. Since it is also the end of the month, I also need to pay bills and do bank errands. Even though my bank is near, I really don't have time to go there and line up for hours. It's been that busy, but di you know you can transfer funds for free with GCash?

We all wished for banking convenience and these days, going physically to the bank would cost transportation, countless hours wasted queueing, when you could have just be productive at home. It's amazing that they have apps now that could do banking transactions these days that you can do stuff at home or anywhere you have an internet connection. Bank owned apps though only get you limited and if you need to do transactions elsewhere, that would take so much effort. What about transferring funds? Would I need to personally go to banks here in my hood then go to another one 5 miles away just to do it because my app doesn't care? Do I have to suffer the same fate as countless Filipinos do in lines across the country? Maybe we all need to learn from GCASH.

GCash to Bank and Bank to GCash transfers cost free

GCASH now has the ability to trasnfer funds from GCASH to bank and bank to GCASH too. The catch? There's no catch because doing it is completely FREE. You get a hold of your time and you don't have to waste time sitting in the bank for hours waiting for hundreds of numbers to be called because this thing is instantaneous, it's crazy true! They've also got about 37 banks on their system and you could do even more if you link in your accounts in the app, no need to change numbers either because GCASH can work with Globe and other networks. Instapay is in its backbone which is an amazing Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas service, all safe and secure.

They even email you details of your transaction. It normally takes seconds to reflect on your account.

I see a glimpse of hope in a country I've felt so hopeless with in the past few years. Hearing news like these makes it easy for any citizen to work efficiently, spend precious time to worthy things and save a lot of people from the stress of banking. 

How about that?

The Launch of the 50th allphones Philippines Store!

I've been talking about them lately because they present technology and marketing a sub group of phones that can rival most packages and bundles by host companies. TAO Corporation, allphones Australia and Globe Telecom just recently launched their 50th store at the Robinsons Galleria in Ortigas, Pasig City. 

It was fun and the dancers just moved to Pharell's Happy song all afternoon. It was every one else's LSS even after the event ended. We got to ask the executives from allphones Australia, Globe and allphones Philippines about this partnership and they all have good things to say about it. 

With Globe's hold on the Philippine Post Paid market, they are only bound to exceed sales in this venue because of better offers and great deals in every allphones shop. They will get each store to locally be able to stress which ones are more effectively selling or not because they want to hear from their number one fans... the consumers. They are so proud about the technology they invested in making all the registration and requirement procedures because they are now paperless and use tablets in all allphone stores nationwide!

They have plans as affordable as 299 up until the highend ones that can cater a bigger market. Aside from that, they will also cater to contract periods that last from 6 to 24 months in the stores says Peter Bithos, Chief Operating Advisor of Globe. allphones Australia also commended TAO's success in expanding rapidly in major cities and can't wait how allphones Philippines would continue to grow come last quarter of this year.

They were able to accommodate a lot of people during their opening and didn't get piled on the counter. The prices on those handsets were really attractive and the choices were great. The have tablets, phablets, affordable phones and the newest ones. They also have accessories like power bank units and Belkin phone covers for those who want to jazz up their phones.

Congratulations allphones Philippines on your 50th store! Hope I can get back there and get a new plan soon!
