AKASO Expands Its Philippine Footprint Through a Strategic Exclusive Distributor
Global action camera brand AKASO has taken a decisive step to strengthen its presence in the Philippines by naming Siklab Spark Corporation as its exclusive local distributor. The partnership, formalized at a private gathering in Manila on October 15, signals AKASO’s ambition to become the go-to brand for Filipino adventurers and content creators. By leveraging Siklab Spark’s distribution expertise, AKASO aims to broaden access to its product lineup, deepen wholesale and retail reach, and foster a vibrant creator community across the country.
With a track record spanning more than a decade, AKASO has grown into a recognized name in the action-camera market, known for balancing quality, performance, and affordability. The company operates in more than 200 countries and has surpassed 7 million units sold worldwide. Guided by its “Let Life Run” philosophy, AKASO seeks to empower hobbyists and professionals alike to capture, edit, and share their most cherished moments without breaking the bank.
Why the Philippines? A Burgeoning Creator Scene and Travel Culture
The Philippines offers a fertile ground for action cameras thanks to its dynamic travel culture, outdoor activities, and a rapidly growing creator economy. From weekend island-hopping adventures to urban explorations, Filipino content creators require reliable, versatile gear that can withstand tropical conditions while delivering cinematic-quality footage. AKASO’s new arrangement with Siklab Spark positions the brand to meet this demand with a localized strategy that emphasizes availability, service, and community engagement.
Local Partnerships to Accelerate Growth
Siklab Spark will lead nationwide distribution, enhance visibility through channel partnerships, bolster the online shopping experience, and coordinate brand activations that connect with creators across regions. The collaboration aligns with AKASO’s objective to make its flagship products, including the newly relaunched AKASO 360, more accessible to aspiring filmmakers and everyday users alike.
The AKASO 360: A Flagship for 360-Degree Storytelling
At the heart of AKASO’s Philippine entry is the AKASO 360, a dedicated 360-degree camera designed for seamless panoramic capture. The device features dual lenses, a bright 2.29-inch touchscreen, and rugged weatherproofing suitable for outdoor shoots. Content creators can record up to 120 minutes of 5.7K video and capture ultra-high-resolution 72MP 360 photos. Advanced features—such as DNG8 RAW support, wind-noise-reducing stereo microphones, built-in stabilization, AI subject tracking, and horizon leveling—ensure smooth, immersive footage in challenging environments.
Workflow, Accessories, and Creative Possibilities
The AKASO 360 is supported by a streamlined workflow that includes the AKASO 360 app and Studio software, simplifying editing and sharing. A range of mounting options—from helmets to tripods—expands creative possibilities for creators, travelers, and vloggers. This setup is especially appealing to enthusiasts who crave quick storytelling without compromising quality.
Promotions, Giveaways, and Community Building
To celebrate its Philippine debut, AKASO has rolled out exclusive discounts and a limited-time giveaway program through October 21. The promotional bundle for the AKASO 360 Standard is offered at a discounted online price, with additional savings available via platform vouchers on popular marketplaces. Similar markdowns are available for other well-known models such as the V50 X and EK7000, increasing accessibility for new customers and bargain hunters alike.
Alongside these promotions, AKASO has partnered with VOCCA Marketing to broaden reach and provide cost-effective video gear to Filipino creators and hobbyists. The company invites local communities to join the AKASO community online, reinforcing a culture of exploration, storytelling, and shared learning. Through these efforts, AKASO aims to deliver consistent value and support to users at every level of experience.
What This Means for Filipino Consumers and Creators
This strategic push signals a broader commitment to serving the Philippine market with reliable, affordable action cameras and a solid ecosystem of software, accessories, and community support. By combining a strong local distributor with an innovative flagship product and engaging promotions, AKASO is well-positioned to become a staple choice for travel content, sports filming, and everyday storytelling in the country.
For Philippine customers, the message is clear: access to world-class action-camera technology is expanding, backed by local service, education, and creative collaboration. As AKASO continues to grow its footprint, Filipino creators can expect ongoing product updates, tailored promotions, and events that celebrate personal storytelling through cutting-edge imaging technology.
