Introduction

This is the era of constant connectivity. Thanks to our smartphones, we can instantly communicate with people from far away through various means, like chats, text messages, and voice and video calls. These are the most basic features of phones, but unfortunately, you can’t enjoy them if you do not have enough mobile load or data.

Telecommunications companies in the Philippines offer postpaid services to those who do not want to run out of mobile load or data. This is a very convenient option, but it’s not for everyone. Prepaid plans remain vastly popular among phone users since they’re arguably more flexible (in a way that you only top up your load or data whenever you need to).

And speaking of topping up, did you know there are more convenient ways to do that now? Gone are the days when you have to rush to the nearest sari-sari store to buy regular mobile load that can be used as is or converted to other promos. Today, telcos, including DITO Telecommunity, provide online options for topping up mobile prepaid load. Learn more about this by reading through the rest of this article.

Why You Need To Top Up Your Prepaid Mobile SIM

Topping up prevents communication interruptions because it helps ensure that you have enough credit to make calls, send messages, or access the internet to chat. There are many ways of topping up, and a few prominent examples are:

• Buy Load From a Retailer – When you run out of load, you can go to a retailer to top up. You can usually find one at a local grocery shop, a nearby convenience store, or even a neighbor who has a mobile reloading business.
• Get a Prepaid Load Card – Perfect for people who want to top up large amounts, prepaid load cards are available in malls and convenience stores. They have a unique number code (hidden behind a gray scratch-off panel). You just have to follow the instructions at the back to complete your transaction.
• Ask Load From Your Friends – DITO subscribers can share load and data credits with each other. This means if you suddenly run out of mobile load, you can ask a fellow DITO subscriber to share some with you. They are allowed to transfer between ₱5 and ₱1,000 of load, as long as they still have ₱1 left after the process.
• Try Online Options – In the Philippines, buying prepaid load online is becoming more and more popular. This is a very convenient way to top up since you do not have to go out of your house to go to a retailer or buy a prepaid card.

What Are the Benefits of Topping Up Online?

Topping up prepaid load online is becoming the norm in the Philippines. There are many good reasons for that, including:

Convenience   

The most apparent benefit of topping up online is convenience. You don’t have to leave your house to reload because you can do it while sitting on your couch and watching TV. As long as you have an internet connection at home, you can complete the transaction without a problem.

Speed and Ease   

Online top-ups are fast and easy to do. All you have to do is visit your network’s app (the DITO App for DITO subscribers) and complete the transaction there. You can also reload using your electronic wallet, online banking app, or e-commerce platforms. In any case, you’ll only need a minute or two to complete the entire process.

Online Promos   

Another good thing about topping up online is that you get to enjoy exclusive promos and discounts. It may not seem much, but a little always goes a long way. Reloading online also allows you to earn points, especially if you top up through your telco’s official app. These points can be converted to pesos that you can use to buy load again.

24/7 Availability   

Imagine running out of load in the middle of the night when retailers are already inaccessible and 24/7 convenience stores are too far away. There’s no problem if you know how to top up online. You can complete the transaction right then and there, so you don’t have to wait the following day to reload.

Different Ways To Top Up Online

There are many ways for you to top up online. At DITO, you can do so by using:

DITO App   

One of the easiest ways to top up mobile load online is to use the DITO App. All you have to do is log in to your account and click the “Buy Load” option. Select the amount or promo you wish to purchase, and then make your payment. The transaction is complete once you receive a notification that your reloading has been successful.

The DITO App is also useful for online game top-ups in the Philippines. This benefits players who want a convenient way to purchase coins, gems, and other kinds of in-game currencies.

MyDITO    

Using your desktop or laptop computer, you can also use MyDITO to top up your mobile load. You first need to log in to your account and then select the “Buy Load” button. Next, you must pick the amount or promo that you want to buy; your payment will have to be processed right after. You will receive a text message if the transaction is successful.

Electronic Wallets   

E-wallets are increasingly becoming popular among people, especially those who prefer cashless payments. You can buy load using these apps as well. Once the transaction is done, the fee will be automatically charged to your account.

It depends on which app you are using, but you usually have to click the “Buy Load” option or its equivalent. You will then have to select DITO as the network and input your number as requested. Just be sure to strictly follow the on-screen instructions to prevent encountering problems while reloading.

Online Banks   

Some online banking apps also allow you to top up your mobile load. Different apps have unique instructions, but they’re usually easy to follow, so the transaction can still be completed in just a few minutes. Once the process is through, the amount of load you bought will be deducted directly from your savings account.

E-Commerce Platforms   

If you’re a fan of online shopping, you must be familiar with the different e-commerce platforms in the Philippines. You can also buy DITO load from them, and the process is almost like buying any other item.

Once the transaction is complete, you’ll receive your load almost immediately. The payment will be deducted from your e-wallet or bank account connected to the app.
