Link your existing Philippine prepaid number to an active Pinoy or Pinoy+ plan. Each time your kini plan renews, ₱10 load credit will be added to your linked Philippine number to help keep it active.
Link your number
You have an active Philippine prepaid number with Smart, TNT, Sun, Globe, or TM. Philippine postpaid numbers are currently not supported.
Philippine Provider SMS Format Smart / TNT / Sun PHSMART63XXXXXXXXXX Globe / TM PHGLOBE63XXXXXXXXXX - Open your messaging app and send an SMS to 1888 from your kini line. Use the format for your Philippine provider:
Replace XXXXXXXXXX with your 10-digit Philippine mobile number, leaving out the leading 0. Do not include spaces or brackets.
For example, if your Smart number is 09181234567, text PHSMART639181234567 to 1888. - Wait for a confirmation SMS that your Philippine number has been successfully linked.
How does the load credit work?
Once your number is linked, ₱10 will be credited to it with each eligble Pinoy or Pinoy+ plan renewal.
The credit is added to your Philippine prepaid number, rather than your Canadian kini account. Keep your kini plan renewed and follow your Philippine provider’s requirements for keeping the prepaid number active.
Is this a number port-in?
Linking your Philippine number does not port it to kini. Your number stays with your Philippine provider, and you should keep its SIM or eSIM.
This service provides renewal load credit. It does not forward calls or texts from your Philippine number to your Canadian kini line. Once set up, the Philippine number can’t be changed.
You can cancel the service at any time by contacting our customer support team.
