Mint Mobile Plans

Mint Mobile is a prepaid carrier on T-Mobile's network that sells service in multi-month blocks — three, six, or twelve months at a time — with rates that drop the more you commit. Plans start at $15/month. No physical stores; no postpaid contracts. T-Mobile acquired Mint in 2023; it still operates as a separate discount brand.

Mint Mobile sells prepaid wireless in bulk — the longer the commitment, the lower the monthly rate. Plans run on T-Mobile's network and start at $15 a month when bought in three-month blocks; month-to-month pricing is noticeably higher. The model rewards anyone who knows they won't switch carriers for a while. Ryan Reynolds bought a minority stake in 2019 and turned the brand's advertising into a running commentary on how bad wireless marketing usually is — which, for a wireless brand, was genuinely funny. T-Mobile acquired the company in 2023, though Mint still operates independently as a discount label on T-Mobile's towers. Twelve phones in the catalog starting at $139.99, mostly mid-range Android. No physical stores — everything runs through the website or app. That cuts overhead and presumably keeps prices down, though it also means there's no counter to walk up to when something goes sideways.
