Manila, Philippines – Atome Philippines has partnered with Electronic Commerce Payments, Inc. (ECPay) to allow customers to purchase prepaid mobile load directly within the Atome app using their Atome Card.
The partnership enables Atome users to top up prepaid load for SMART, Globe, and DITO without leaving the app. Customers can pay for these purchases using their Atome Card while earning Atome rewards points.
ECPay, which is now part of Mynt—the fintech arm of Globe Telecom and operator of GCash—is one of the Philippines’ largest electronic payment networks. Its payment ecosystem spans online platforms, e-wallets, convenience stores, pawnshops, and local sari-sari stores.
According to Atome, it has issued more than 3 million Atome Cards in the Philippines. The company said up to 80% of its cardholders are first-time card users, while 65% are women. It added that most customers use the card for everyday expenses such as groceries, food, household items, and utility bill payments, with mobile load now joining the range of supported purchases.
Maria Patricia Antonia Pascual, President and CEO of ECPay, said the partnership aims to improve access to an essential everyday service.
“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, reliable and enabling the ecosystem. Together, we are making it simpler for Atome app users to top up mobile load anytime, anywhere,” she said.
Christian Quiros, President and General Manager of Atome Philippines, said the integration allows customers to better incorporate mobile load expenses into their monthly budgets.
“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. 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 said.
