In practice the choice is usually made for you by who actually serves your address. Check availability first, then compare among whoever is available.

How they differ
- Converge — cheapest entry, strong provincial reach, and the only major provider with a genuine prepaid fiber product. BIDA Fiber limits the router to 6 connected devices.
- PLDT — the largest incumbent with the broadest footprint, but the highest entry price and an explicit 36-month contract. No upfront cash-out on application.
- Globe — GFiber Prepaid is the standout, having moved to 300 Mbps in 2026 with a ₱699 installation fee and 7 days free.
- Sky — runs on Converge infrastructure and is concentrated in Metro Manila. TruFiber UNLI 75 at ₱999 for 75 Mbps is competitive, but installation is ₱2,500.
Look past the headline price
Installation fees and contract length change the real cost substantially. Sky's ₱999 per month plus ₱3,000 of financed installation is a different proposition from the same ₱999 with free installation. Ask for the total cost over the lock-in period, not the monthly figure.
