The short answer
Manila and the island beaches, then a few days in Singapore on the way out, is an easy pairing because Singapore is the hub for so many flights. I priced the six regional plans on 25 October 2026 for a week, two weeks and a month, and I added Ringo Light's two country plans for comparison. For a fortnight or a month across both, I would buy the Ringo Light Asia plan.
A single eSIM for both, unlimited data at full speed, 2 weeks at $34.99 or 30 days at $59.99, and no renewal. Airalo asks $49 for 15 days and $73.50 for 30.
For a short island break with a Singapore stopover: 3 days of unlimited at $11.50, full speed up to 3 GB a day, then 1 Mbps.
If you mostly need maps and messages: 10 GB lasts 30 days for $21, and 20 GB lasts 45 days for $35 on sale (regular $40).
A week with 25 GB at full speed is $25, then 2 Mbps. A 20 GB monthly plan is $19 and renews until you cancel it.
Prices read on 25 October 2026: Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Ubigi on their own sites or listings, Ringo Light from its catalogue. All in US dollars unless stated. Treat every number as a snapshot.

The prices, charted
Asia regional plans for both places, US dollars, 25 October 2026. Ringo Light sells 2 weeks, the others 15 days. Ubigi's 15 days is 30 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Nomad sells no two-week unlimited; its longest is 10 days at $29.
The 30-day regional plan at each brand. Ubigi's month is 60 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps. Nomad sells no 30-day unlimited.
Holafly sells no buckets. Ringo Light sells none either, as its 2 weeks is unlimited and lasts 2 weeks, not 30 days.

We sell data eSIMs for now to fund the full Ringo service. Ringo is self funded. Every plan bought here pays for the build of one plan that works everywhere.
Want to keep your own number abroad?
That is the full Ringo service: one plan that works everywhere, with your own number included.
It is a separate product from Ringo Light and it is still being built, so it is not on sale yet. Join the waitlist to hear when it opens.
What to do in the Philippines and Singapore, and what your phone needs for it
Eight places that many trips through the Philippines and Singapore include, four in each, with the one thing your data does for you at each. A single Asia eSIM stays on across all of them.
One plan for the islands and the city: Ringo Light
Many trips to the Philippines go through Singapore, and a regional eSIM turns that into one install at home and nothing to do at Changi. With two country eSIMs you pay twice, scan twice, and switch lines in a transit hall. I would rather not.
On the Asia plan, I read Ringo Light at $34.99 for 2 weeks and $59.99 for 30 days, with no renewal. For two weeks on a regional plan the unlimited prices are $45 at Ubigi for a fixed 30 GB at full speed, $49 at Airalo, $51.50 at Holafly and $54.99 at Saily. For a month they run from $66 to $86.99.
Taken separately, Ringo Light's country plans cost more than the regional one. The Philippines' 2 weeks is $22.99 and Singapore's $17.99 on their own pages, $40.98 together, against $34.99 for the Asia trip that covers both. For a month, the Philippines' 30 days is $36.99 and Singapore's $29.99, $66.98 together, against $59.99 for Asia.
The saving is smaller than on some pairs, so mind the split of your days. A month mostly in the Philippines at $36.99 is cheaper than the Asia plan, and so is a fortnight with only a night or two in Singapore.
Which plans cover both countries
Ringo Light covers both. The Philippines and Singapore are on its list of 20 countries, so the same eSIM works in each at one price.
For the other brands I only have what the parent post gives me: their country counts (Airalo 18, Holafly 16, Saily 22, Nomad 14, Ubigi 17) and the few countries it says they leave out, which do not include the Philippines or Singapore. I could not confirm each country on every brand's list on the day, and I would check yours before paying.
If you want a data bucket: Nomad or Airalo
- Nomad, $21 for 10 GB. The lowest 10 GB price I read, on a 14-country APAC plan. The 20 GB for 45 days is $35 on sale and $40 otherwise.
- Airalo, $25 for 10 GB. Asialink has 18 countries. 20 GB for 30 days costs $39, and the smallest bucket is 1 GB at $4.
- Ubigi, $28 for 10 GB. Best Asia has 17 countries. The 20 GB at $19 is a monthly plan that keeps renewing until you stop it.
- Saily, $35.99 for 10 GB. Asia and Oceania has 22 countries, and its listing showed no 20 GB bucket when I read it on saily.com on 25 October 2026.
- ✓Ringo Light, no buckets. Only unlimited: 2 weeks at $34.99 or 30 days at $59.99. Nomad and Airalo undercut it for a fixed 10 GB, and Nomad, Airalo and Ubigi's monthly plan for 20 GB. I would buy Ringo Light for unlimited data and look elsewhere for a bucket.
What Ringo Light is
Ringo Light is the data eSIM sold by Ringo, and I write for Ringo, so read my view knowing that. It exists to fund the full Ringo, one plan that works anywhere and keeps your own number. For Asia it sells two trips across 20 countries, the Philippines and Singapore included, both with unlimited data at full speed: 2 weeks at $34.99 and 30 days at $59.99. Nothing renews. The eSIM lands in your inbox in seconds and installs in one scan, no app.
The card to buy it is further up this page, straight after the side-by-side table.
Pick by trip
I would open the Philippines page. Ringo Light sells no week, but its Philippines 2 weeks at $22.99 beats the Asia price.
I would buy Airalo's 3 days of unlimited at $11.50, or Ubigi's week with 25 GB at $25. Ringo Light sells no 3 or 7 day plan on Asia.
My pick is Ringo Light unlimited for 2 weeks at $34.99, the cheapest regional plan for that length.
I would buy Ringo Light unlimited for 30 days at $59.99.
I would buy Nomad's 10 GB at $21, after checking that its 14 countries include both of yours.
No travel eSIM here does that. The full Ringo, which Ringo Light funds, ports the number you have.
