Ultra Mobile's Unlimited plan for 1 line costs $50 per month.

It rides on the T-Mobile network for coverage.

It includes unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and unlimited high-speed data per month. You get 20GB of hotspot data. Video streams at 480p quality.

The Ultra Mobile Unlimited+ 12 Months plan has deprioritized data. Having deprioritized data means you may temporarily experience slower speeds during times when the cellular network is busy. You'll resume getting the fastest speeds available when the network is no longer busy.

Taxes and fees are extra on this plan. I estimate they will add another $3.97 to the price. Your total montly bill will be about $53.97 per month.

Overall, I do not recommend the Ultra Mobile Unlimited+ 12 Months plan. It is too expensive for the features and data you get.

International Roaming
- $

/day
/week
/month

Get talk, text, and data service when you travel internationally.

The way international roaming works on Ultra Mobile is you add either $5, $10, or $20 of international credit to your account.

Then, minutes, texts, and data that you use while abroad are deducted from your international balance at pay-per-use rates. Common rates are $0.25 per minute, $0.05 per text sent or received, and $0.20 per MB. Keep in mind that $0.20 per MB is equivalent to $200 per GB, which is quite expensive. You may consider other options for international data.
