“After 25 GB the hotspot crawls to 600 kbps - plenty of features with a ceiling that arrives fast.”

Our review
The Verizon Prepaid Unlimited Plus is the highest tier in Verizon's prepaid lineup, and at $60/mo with autopay it delivers a surprising amount relative to what the postpaid plans charge for comparable features.
The top-line specs are: 5G Ultra Wideband access (Verizon's fastest 5G), 50 GB of full-speed data before potential congestion-based slowing, 25 GB of mobile hotspot at full speed before it drops, and unlimited talk and text in Mexico and Canada. No credit check, no annual contract, and multi-line savings of $20/line apply to additional lines. The first month costs $70 before the autopay discount activates.
Loyalty discounts may bring the rate lower after sustained service. The hotspot post-cap speed of 600 kbps on standard 5G/LTE is limiting - but on 5G Ultra Wideband it continues at 3 Mbps, which is more workable for basic browsing.
What we love
- 5G Ultra Wideband access on Verizon's network - the fastest 5G tier
- 50 GB at full speed before potential congestion slowing - more than most people use in a month
- 25 GB of mobile hotspot at full speeds
- Unlimited talk and text in Mexico and Canada
- No credit check, no annual contract
- Multi-line discount: $20/mo off each additional line
What we don't
- After 25 GB, hotspot drops to 600 kbps on standard 5G/LTE (3 Mbps on Ultra Wideband) - the 600 kbps tier is limiting
- First month is $70 before autopay discount kicks in
- Taxes not included in the advertised price
- No international data roaming beyond Mexico/Canada
- Data after 50 GB is still subject to congestion-based slowing without a defined hard floor

Frequently asked questions about Prepaid Unlimited Plus
What features does Prepaid Unlimited Plus include?
The plan includes 5G Ultra Wideband access, 50 GB of full-speed data before potential congestion slowing, 25 GB of mobile hotspot at full speed (then 600 kbps on standard 5G/LTE or 3 Mbps on Ultra Wideband), unlimited talk and text in Mexico and Canada, no annual contract, and no credit check. Autopay discount of $10/mo activates after the first month. Multi-line discount applies: each additional Unlimited or Unlimited Plus line saves $20/mo.
How much data, talk, and text does Prepaid Unlimited Plus include?
Data is unlimited with 50 GB at full speed before congestion-based deprioritization can apply. After 50 GB, speeds can fluctuate based on tower load during congestion. Voice and text are unlimited in the US, Mexico, and Canada. The 50 GB threshold is generous for typical use - most phones on Verizon's network consume 10-15 GB per month.
What is the network speed on Prepaid Unlimited Plus?
Full 5G Ultra Wideband access is included - Verizon's fastest 5G, mostly found in dense urban areas and select venues. On standard 5G Nationwide and 4G LTE, typical mid-band 5G speeds apply (100-300 Mbps in good coverage). The 50 GB high-speed data threshold means most lines will see consistent speeds before any congestion-based slowing applies.
Does Prepaid Unlimited Plus include mobile hotspot?
25 GB of mobile hotspot at full 5G/4G LTE speeds is included. After 25 GB, hotspot speeds drop to 600 kbps on standard 5G and 4G LTE, or 3 Mbps on 5G Ultra Wideband. The 600 kbps standard tier is barely functional for anything beyond messaging and basic email. The 3 Mbps Ultra Wideband post-cap is more workable - it handles SD video and light browsing without cutoff.
What happens if you exceed your data on Prepaid Unlimited Plus?
No data overage charges. When hotspot hits the 25 GB threshold, speeds drop rather than extra fees applying. Data after the 50 GB high-speed threshold continues at speeds affected by congestion management. Voice and text have no limits.
Does Prepaid Unlimited Plus require a contract?
No annual contract. Prepaid with no credit check required. Cancel at any time. Multi-line pricing adjusts automatically when lines are added or removed.
