giga is a mobile provider in Singapore that sells 4G and 5G SIM-only plans that operate on the StarHub network. There are five main SIM-only plans on offer, which all operate on 30-day renewal cycles. All giga mobile plans come with included Asia roaming data (for use in Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, India and South Korea), free caller ID, incoming calls and inbound SMS. Unlike its StarHub network owner, giga doesn’t offer Corporate Individual Scheme (CIS) mobile plans.
