FOR leading Philippine fiber broadband provider Converge ICT Solutions Inc., the landscape of broadband in the Philippines still paints a picture of unequal access to connectivity; hence, its introduction of a prepaid fiber product, called Surf2Sawa or S2S, in 2022.
'Surf2Sawa or S2S as we call it is, to us, an opportunity to live out our mission to serve the unserved and underserved. With the high prices of goods today, some people trade off internet connection for, say, their child's schooling or a week's groceries. We came up with this product they don't have to face that trade off. They get to enjoy a reliable, high-capacity broadband connection and still buy their essentials,' says Converge CEO and co-founder Dennis Anthony Uy.
Conrado 'Dhing' Pascual, vice president and head of the Product Management Business Unit at Surf2Sawa, says it is 'unli, mura, walang kontrata .'Who can resist such a deal? It seems many can't.Surf2Sawa has logged over 242,000 subscribers by the end of September 2024, which is more than double of its subscriber count by the end of last year.This is, indeed, a good trajectory given that it has only been introduced a year before.
