Mint Mobile: Plans, Coverage & Deals

Mint Mobile is a prepaid cell phone carrier that uses T-Mobile's towers.

It offers budget-friendly plans starting at just $15 per month.

These plans include unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and varying amounts of high-speed data.

Mint Mobile is known as a carrier-owned prepaid brand. A carrier-owned prepaid brand is a brand that is owned and operated by one of the major carriers: AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon.

In Mint Mobile's case, it is run by T-Mobile.

As a carrier-owned prepaid brand, Mint Mobile uses T-Mobile's network for coverage, but is marketed separately.

This enables Mint Mobile to offer prepaid plans that are more affordable than T-Mobile's postpaid plans, targeting a different demographic of consumers without affecting T-Mobile's premium brand image.

Choosing a prepaid carrier like Mint Mobile is a smart way to lower your cell phone bill while still getting the same coverage that you are used to.
