Globe Telecom has signed a memorandum of understanding with low-Earth orbit satellite operator Starlink to resell its Direct to Cell (D2C) satellite service in the Philippines. The agreement makes Globe the first operator in the country, and in Southeast Asia, to offer Starlink’s D2C service.

Through the deal, Globe will act as a local reseller of Starlink’s mobile satellite connectivity, aiming to extend coverage beyond traditional terrestrial networks. Further commercial details and timelines were not disclosed in the announcement.
