GetaFIX

What GetaFIX does

GetaFIX, legally incorporated as Responsible Internet Sustainability Effort Inc., is the dominant Philippines-based Internet Exchange Point (IXP), operating Layer 2 network interconnection infrastructure across 12 data centers in Manila, Cebu, Davao, Hong Kong, and Singapore. The platform enables ISPs, carriers, CDNs, and content providers to exchange traffic locally via BGP peering rather than via expensive international transit. Its technical core consists of dual fully redundant route servers running on the open-source BIRD platform, with BGP community-based route controls, IPv6 support, private VLANs, and MAC-level port security. Core products include subscription-based Port Plans (1Gbps, 10Gbps, and 100Gbps), usage-based GetaFIX REACH plans for cached content delivery from Akamai, Cloudflare, Google, Netflix (coming soon), and Steam, plus Remote Peering Plans that extend access to Philippine eyeball networks from Cebu and Davao without requiring Manila physical presence.

GetaFIX serves a membership of over 100 networks, including all major Philippine telcos (Globe Telecom, Converge ICT, DITO Telecommunity, PLDT, Sky Cable), international carriers (China Mobile, Hurricane Electric, Telstra, RETN), and global content providers (Google, Amazon, Facebook/Meta, Netflix, Cloudflare, Akamai). The company claims Remote Peering Plans provide access to over 50% of Philippine eyeball traffic. It markets on cost reduction (transit offload), latency improvement (local content serving versus overseas routing), DNS performance gains via direct hosting of 1.1.1.1 and DNS roots, and improved speed test results via M-Lab integration, all backed by a 99.9% SLA with rebate.

The business operates a member-supported cooperative model with multi-year subscription contracts (12, 24, and 36 months, with up to 15% discount at 36 months) combined with usage-based REACH billing. GetaFIX markets exclusively to network operators through its website, a public Looking Glass diagnostic tool, and direct enterprise sales engagement, supported by 24/7 engineering staff. No venture or private equity funding rounds are publicly disclosed, and no management team information is available in the source data.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves1 record

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Philippines Internet Exchange (PHIX): PHIX is the other major domestic Philippine Internet Exchange, operating in Manila. It is the most direct competitor to GetaFIX, competing for the same ISP and content provider members and overlapping on peering, BGP route server services, and port-based subscription pricing.

Broad incumbents

• DE-CIX: DE-CIX is one of the world's largest Internet Exchange operators, with global IXs across Europe, North America, and Asia (including Singapore). It competes for hyperscaler and international carrier peering relationships and represents the type of well-capitalized global operator that could challenge GetaFIX in PH or APAC.
• Equinix Internet Exchange: Equinix operates one of the largest global IX footprints inside its IBX data centers, including HK1 and SG1 where GetaFIX currently partners. Equinix is both a partner and a potential competitor — it could expand direct PH presence, leveraging hyperscaler relationships to attract members away from GetaFIX.
• AMS-IX (Amsterdam Internet Exchange): AMS-IX is a leading global IXP that has expanded internationally through partnerships and licensed models in markets like Hong Kong, Singapore, and the US. It represents the cooperative-style IX model that GetaFIX's member-supported structure mirrors, and is a comparable benchmark for organizational design.
• LINX (London Internet Exchange): LINX is one of the largest neutral IXPs globally with a member-funded operating model similar in structure to GetaFIX's member-supported approach. It provides a relevant peer benchmark for governance, port-pricing economics, and BGP route server operations at scale.

Regional players

• SGIX (Singapore Internet Exchange): SGIX is Singapore's primary neutral Internet Exchange and is one of GetaFIX's partner IXs for extending REACH content reach into Singapore. It is a regional peer in terms of geography, with overlapping hyperscaler and carrier member rosters.
• HKIX (Hong Kong Internet Exchange): HKIX, operated by CUHK, is the dominant Hong Kong-based Internet Exchange and is also a GetaFIX partner IX. It is a regional peer with similar BGP peering and route server services, comparable to the role GetaFIX plays domestically in the Philippines.
• MyIX (Malaysia Internet Exchange): MyIX is Malaysia's primary neutral Internet Exchange, operated as a non-profit industry initiative. It is a Southeast Asian regional peer with a comparable member-funded structure and mission to localize internet traffic exchange.
• BBIX (SoftBank): BBIX is a major Asian IXP operator, originally spun out of SoftBank, operating across Japan and other APAC markets. It is a regional peer in APAC with comparable BGP peering services and represents a potential expansion benchmark for GetaFIX in the broader Asian market.
• JPIX (Japan Internet Exchange): JPIX is one of Japan's largest commercial IXPs, providing layer-2 interconnection and BGP route server services similar to GetaFIX. It is a regional APAC peer with comparable enterprise and carrier member focus.
