Mint Mobile Deal: Buy a Phone, Get Unlimited Service for $15/Month – Technologist

For a limited time, new customers switching to Mint Mobile can buy an eligible phone and get a year of Mint Mobile’s unlimited plan for $15/month. That’s half the price of Mint Mobile’s unlimited plan at its regular annual rate: a savings of $180.

In this article, I’ll share everything you need to know about Mint Mobile’s latest deal.

Save $180 on Mint Mobile Unlimited When You Buy a Phone

Mint Mobile offers any plan for $15/month for the first three months to new customers. After the first three months, plan rates vary depending on whether you prepay for three months, six months or a year in advance. 

Mint Mobile’s annual unlimited plan typically costs $30/month ($360 upfront). However, if you switch to Mint Mobile right now and buy a new phone, you can get the same annual unlimited plan for $15/month ($180) for the first year. That’s a 50% savings compared to the plan’s regular rate!

Here’s what you’ll get with Mint Mobile’s unlimited plan: 

  • Unlimited nationwide talk, text and data
  • 40GB high-speed data before throttled speeds
  • Typical download speeds: 70-320 Mbps
  • Access to T-Mobile’s 5G & 4G LTE networks
  • 10GB mobile hotspot
  • Free calling to Mexico & Canada
  • Wi-Fi Calling

To get this deal, you’ll have to port in your current phone number from an eligible carrier and purchase a new phone. Here’s the selection of phones eligible for Mint Mobile’s current deal:

Mint Mobile: The Best Value for a Cheap Phone Plan

If you aren’t familiar with Mint Mobile, it’s a prepaid cell phone service provider that runs on T-Mobile’s towers. It provides access to the same service, 4G/LTE network and 5G network (on capable devices) for a fraction of the price. 

All of Mint Mobile’s plans are available to new customers for $15/month ($45 for three months). Right now, new customers can keep the same $15/month price for a full year with a new phone purchase. That brings the price of Mint Mobile’s annual unlimited plan from $360 ($30/month) to $180 ($15/month). To compare, postpaid plans from T-Mobile begin at $50/month for one line with the Essentials Saver plan.

Mint Mobile’s plan prices make it one of several aggressive and inexpensive discounters in the cell phone space according to money expert Clark Howard. This is why Mint Mobile has won several awards on Clark.com including the following: 

  • Best overall cheap phone plan
  • Best value for a prepaid phone plan
  • Best value phone plan for one person
  • Best value for a cheap family plan

I’ve tried out Mint Mobile myself in the past and had an excellent experience. Since then, I’ve helped my husband switch to Mint Mobile where he now pays $360 for a full year of unlimited service. With Mint Mobile’s current deal, you can buy a new phone and get the same plan for half the price! You can read my full Mint Mobile review here.
