Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • USTDA funded a 2024 feasibility study for GetaFIX expansion.
  • FundLife partnered with RISE in 2025 to connect Metro Cebu public schools.
  • RISE sponsored Philippine Tech Show 2026, signaling active market presence and sales motion.

What critics are saying

  • Globe, PLDT, and Converge can undercut enterprise pricing and bundle services.
  • Carrier-neutral exchange economics rely on membership growth; stalled adoption weakens GetaFIX's moat.
  • If RISE misses expansion financing, infrastructure buildout slows and enterprise credibility erodes.

What makes RISE unique

  • RISE runs its own fiber network and 24/7 engineer-led support.
  • GetaFIX is the Philippines' largest carrier-neutral exchange, expanding peering density.
  • GetaFIX REACH, launched September 2025, links Manila, Cebu, and Davao.
