The Philippine digital economy expanded to ₱2.74 trillion in 2025, accounting for 9.8% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP), according to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA).
The latest data showed a 5.4% increase from ₱2.59 trillion in 2024, indicating continued — though more moderate — growth in digital-related activities across the economy.
“The digital economy of the Philippines reached PhP 2.74 trillion Gross Value Added (GVA) at current prices in 2025, equivalent to 9.8 percent of the country’s Gross Domestic Product,” the PSA said.
Digital-enabling infrastructure remained the largest contributor, generating ₱1.79 trillion in 2025. Key drivers within this segment included information and communication technology (ICT) services, ICT manufacturing, and ICT-enabled services.
E-commerce accounted for 32.2% of the digital economy, followed by digital content and media at 2.2%, and government digital services at 0.3%.
Employment in the sector reached 10.39 million workers, representing 21.2% of total employment nationwide. This was slightly higher than the 10.27 million recorded in 2024.
E-commerce dominated digital employment, accounting for 75.8% of jobs, while digital-enabling infrastructure contributed 23.3%. Digital content and media and government digital services made up less than 1% combined.
The PSA said the figures are based on preliminary results of the Philippine Digital Economy Satellite Account (PDESA), noting that the methodology and estimates remain subject to further refinement pending institutionalization by the PSA Board.
