At Ding, we've put together a brand new guide on how to 'Pasaload' for Smart, Globe, TNT and TM networks in the Philippines!

What is PASALOAD or Share A Load?

As you might know, 'PASALOAD' (pass a load) is the phrase used in the Philippines between people who wish to transfer part of their load balance with friends, family or loved ones.

The term is interchangeably used along with 'Share a Load', depending on who you talk to.

All mobile networks in the Philippines offer the PASALOAD feature, as it was originally created as a way for people to stay connected if they weren't located near a reloading station.

Although nowadays you can buy load online at any time of the day or night, through top-up sites such as Ding, the PASALOAD feature is still an extremely popular way for locals to support loved ones.

Benefits of the PASALOAD feature

āœ… Easy to do

Is a loved one running out of credit and you need to keep in contact with them? The process to share a load is done in a few taps, and received instantly. We'll show you how easy it is in the next section šŸ˜Š

āœ… Received instantly

Once a PASALOAD has been sent, if you both have a phone signal it's almost always received instantly, no matter the time of day.

āœ… Low cost

The cost to PASALOAD for Smart load is just P1 per transaction.

If you are going to perform multiple PASALOADs however, it may be better value to send load directly to their number with Ding, as we don't charge any transaction fees.

How to PASALOAD Smart to Smart/TNT

You can send a Smart PASALOADĀ to Smart, Talk N Text, SunCellular, and even Smart Bro networks. The PASALOADĀ feature also works the reverse way, from any of the above networks, sending back to a Smart number. Just follow either of the options below.

Option 1: Pasaload Smart credit

Text PASALOADĀ <space> SMART OR TNT NUMBER <space> AMOUNT to 808

For example to send P20 text PASALOAD 09198596537 20 to 808.

Option 2: Pasaload Smart promo packages

Text PASALOAD <space> SMART OR TNT NUMBER <space> KEYWORD to 808.

For example to send a GIGA STORIES 99 promo text PASALOAD 09198596537 GST99 to 808.

How to share a load Globe to Globe/TM

Similar to the Smart PASALOAD, Globe previously offered the ability to share load to Globe or Touch Mobile numbers. This also worked if you wanted to Share a Load from TM to Globe as well.

Unfortunately, as of 1st December 2022, Globe ceased offering this functionality. However, if you are looking to buy load for someone in the Philippines you can buy this for Globe through Ding.

Now you know all the benefits of using Ding and how to recharge Globe with us, just click the link below to get started!

Things to remember:

  • There is a transaction fee of P1 per PASALOAD transaction, paid for by the sender.

  • The validity of the load depends on the operator and the amount sent. You can check Smart validity periods here.

  • The PASALOAD feature is only available between phone numbers on the same networks. You cannot PASALOADĀ from Smart to Globe networks.

  • The PASALOADĀ steps above are only for prepaid networks.

Get load directly with Ding!

If you are the one that is running out of credit, you can always sidestep the PASALOADĀ feature and use Ding to directly request load from someone. That way you will receive load that is valid for 365 days, without any transaction fees for either person.

Just like a PASALOAD, you will receive the load instantly with Ding.

To request a load, it's simple. Just click the button below to head to our request page, enter your details and share the link with the person who will send you load.

From that link, they will enter your phone number and an amount to send, add their payment details and you will receive the load instantly!
