Dennis Anthony Uy of Converge

Fiber broadband provider Converge ICT Solutions is pitching its gigabit internet services, promising affordable and superfast access speeds for home users.

Converge chief commercial officer Benjamin Azada, at a press launch, said Converge CEO Dennis Uy emphasized that gigabit internet is just the start, and Filipino consumers can expect more high-value services from the company.

The Converge press launch—held at the Space & Time Cube+, Level 1, S’Maison at Conrad in Pasay City–meanwhile formalized the partnership of the leading broadband firm with streaming giant Netflix.

In effect, consumers will no longer need to have separate billings for their Converge and Netflix services because of this partnership.

For now, the Converge-Netflix partnership is exclusive, Azada disclosed. The Converge-Netflix bundle will also be rolled out nationwide, the company said.

Best value offer

Converge said the collaboration will offer the best value internet and streaming bundle for Filipino consumers.

This new collaboration will be headlined by the new Converge Netflix Bundle, where new and existing FiberX customers will be able to have both an internet and Netflix plan, all in one. The new offering aims to provide countless entertainment options and a better streaming experience for FiberX users.

Converge Netflix Bundle

The new Converge Netflix Bundle will include a boosted FiberX plan with 325 Mbps speeds for faster streaming, a Netflix subscription with a lock-in period of 36 months, a new WiFi-6 Next Gen Modem, and a Converge Xperience Box with Freemium Channels—all put together into one subscription for the convenience of the customer.

Aside from the easy set-up and unified billing, the new Converge Netflix Bundle will power subscribers with better entertainment options. Households will have access to both the sought-after Netflix favourites and the FiberX internet of Converge, which has again been lauded as the fastest internet in the Philippines based on Q1 to Q2 2024 data during this year’s Ookla® Speedtest Award™.

The new Converge Netflix Bundle aims to give endless entertainment at a price that fits your budget. Aside from the FiberX and Netflix plans, the bundle will also offer an additional Boost Mode, a new WiFi-6 Next Gen Modem, and a Converge Xperience Box with Freemium Channels. The Converge Xperience Box is a Google-certified Android TV box that allows the customer to download apps such as YouTube, Spotify, and streaming apps like Netflix.

Aside from these, it will also allow customers to play games or access Google’s integrated assistant. The Xperience Box can support 4K streaming, Wi-Fi, and already comes with the Freemium package which can stream up to 15 free-to-air TV channels.

Converge WiFi6 Next Gen Modem

The Converge WiFi6 Next Gen Modem, another inclusion in this exclusive and all-in-one bundle, is a router that enables the efficient performance of networked devices in dense areas. With its improved Wi-Fi speed, better coverage, and efficient device management, the new Converge WiFi6 Modem can give three times better wireless performance in dense and highly populated settings.

The new Converge Netflix Bundle starts at P1,798 per month, inclusive of a Converge FiberX plan with boosted speeds of 325 Mbps, a WiFi6 modem, a Converge Xperience Box, and a Basic Netflix subscription that can support one HD stream at a time. Customers can avail of more premium bundles that can support multiple devices streaming at the same time and can offer additional Boost Modes with speeds of up to 200 Mbps. For existing subscribers, the Converge Netflix Bundle is available as an exclusive add-on starting at P298 per month.

With a wide range of entertainment options available on Netflix, the convenience of the Converge Xperience Box, and the FiberX plan & Boost Modes, both powered by the fastest internet in the country, the Converge x Netflix bundle will give customers endless choices at faster speeds at a more affordable rate.
