Singapore’s newest telecom provider, eight, has launched an exciting new mobile plan, drawing significant attention and large crowds to its roadshows. The highlight of this new offering is an impressive 388GB of local data and 8GB of APAC roaming for just $18 a month. This follows a wave of strong demand since eight entered the local market last month.
Over the past week, eight’s SIM card collection points across the island have seen steady crowds. Users who had registered their interest in advance flocked to various locations to activate their free SIM cards and experience eight’s plans, which boast the best coverage at the lowest prices. With 99.9% network coverage, eight guarantees reliable connection even in challenging environments like basements and MRT tunnels. Additionally, an $8 monthly plan, announced last month, is also available for purchase at these collection points.
The newly launched $18 monthly plan is tailored for frequent travelers and includes:
- 388GB of local data
- 58GB roaming in Malaysia
- 8GB APAC roaming (covering Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Taiwan, India, and Vietnam)
- 2GB international roaming
- 288 local minutes
- 288 IDD minutes
- 88 local SMSes
Both of eight’s commercial plans can be purchased and activated at numerous venues across the island. The roadshows, which continue at several locations, offer interested users the opportunity to engage with eight’s offerings. Details on upcoming roadshows can be found on eight’s website.
For those who registered for eight’s free 88-day mobile plan, redemptions are ongoing at specified locations listed on the website. This free plan, which renews monthly for the first 88 days, includes:
- 88GB of local data
- 1GB APAC roaming

As eight expands its services, customers can look forward to the upcoming port-in service and the launch of an app for usage management. More details will be shared soon.
