MANILA, Philippines, Aug. 4, 2026 — Atome Philippines has partnered with Electronic Commerce Payments Inc. (ECPay), a leading provider of electronic payment systems in the Philippines, to allow Atome customers to purchase mobile load directly through the Atome app and pay using their Atome Card.
ECPay is now part of Mynt, the fintech arm of Globe Telecom and operator of GCash, one of the Philippines’ largest e-wallets. It operates one of the country’s biggest payment networks, covering online platforms, e-wallets, convenience stores, pawnshops, and local sari-sari stores.
Atome, meanwhile, has issued more than 3 million Atome Cards in the Philippines. Up to 80% of cardholders are first-time card users, while 65% are women. Most customers use the card for daily expenses such as groceries, food, household items, and utility bills.
Mobile load now joins that list, with customers able to purchase prepaid load for Smart, Globe, and DITO directly through the Atome app.
“For millions of Filipinos, mobile load is an essential part of daily life — critical to how they work, pay bills, and stay connected. This partnership highlights how innovation and inclusion can come together, with ECPay’s nationwide network helping make services more accessible and reliable while enabling the ecosystem,” said Maria Patricia Antonia Pascual, President and CEO of ECPay.
“Together, we are making it simpler for Atome app users to top up mobile load anytime, anywhere,” she added.
Christian Quiros, President and General Manager of Atome Philippines, said mobile load has become a regular household expense.
“Mobile load is a monthly fixed cost for almost every Filipino household. It belongs alongside groceries and utility bills as something you plan and budget for,” Quiros said.
“With ECPay now integrated into the Atome app, our 3 million cardholders can top up their load wherever they are and manage it as part of their monthly spending, all while earning Atome Rewards points,” he added.
