FAQs
How much does a Mint Mobile plan cost?
Mint Mobile prides itself on making its plans affordable, with plans including unlimited talk and text available for as little as $15 per month. Although you’ll usually pay slightly more for higher data allowances, we’ve previously seen limited-time promotions offering unlimited data plans for $15 per month too.
Is there a Mint Mobile free trial?
Yes, Mint Mobile runs a 7-day money back guarantee, letting you test out the service to see if it works for you. You’ll get to use the network with 250 minutes, texts and MB of data, and if you aren’t 100% happy, just let their team know to get your money back. If you like Mint Mobile, whether you want to keep your old number or start fresh with a new one, just let the team know and you’ll start your chosen plan.
Can I bring my own phone to Mint Mobile?
Absolutely! You don’t need to buy a new phone to join Mint Mobile, and you can still get access to a range of deals on selected plans even if you plan to use your old handset. You’ll just need to make sure your phone is unlocked to get started. Mint even has a compatibility checker on the Bring Your Own Phone (BYOP) page where you can enter device details to see if you can use that phone on their network. What’s more, you’ll still be able to redeem new customer offers if you’re just joining the network so you won’t miss out on chances to save on your first plan.
Can I keep my old number?
Yes, Mint Mobile offers to help all customers move their old number over to the network completely free of charge so you don’t have the hassle of updating all your contacts and accounts.
What is the Mint Mobile over 55s plan?
If you’re over 55 years old, you can choose to take out one of Mint Mobile’s dedicated over 55s plans, which are designed to be affordable and to help older customers have a smooth experience joining the service. Plans include free unlimited talk, text and Wi-Fi calling, as well as free mobile hotspot. Their team will also offer technical support for the first year of service, covering the likes of setup and moving your old number to your new SIM. They’ll help to cancel your previous carrier if you’re switching, and are more than happy to join a call with you and your provider to help ensure it goes smoothly.
Does Mint Mobile charge data overages?
No, one of the big benefits of signing up with Mint Mobile is that you won’t be charged for going over your data limit – once you run out of your data allowance, you won’t be able to keep using data, meaning you avoid any surprise charges. To top it off, Mint will text you each month with recommendations based on your usage to help you choose the right plan for you so you never have to worry about running out again.
Hints and Tips
Get new customers deals by joining the newsletter: If you’re looking to join Mint Mobile, signing up to the mobile carrier’s newsletter will let you receive regular updates on new products and plans, as well as any promotional pricing. To top it off, if you’re a new customer, you’ll get access to exclusive deals that can save you as much as 50% off the usual price of your plan.
Save when you switch: Mint Mobile offers deals to any customers switching over rival networks. If you’re currently a Verizon or AT&T customer, you can get 2 plans for the price of one, effectively netting you 50% off getting two devices or yourself and someone else connected.
Take out a Family Plan: Want to get your family connected on one plan? Mint Mobile offers family plans that allow you to connect between 2 and 5 lines for one monthly cost. As well as being cheaper than buying multiple separate plans, you can also save by buying in bulk, with discounts available when you purchase 3 months ahead.
Refer a Friend: If you know someone who’d like to join Mint Mobile, you can send them a referral link to earn both of you credit. Just head to the refer a friend page to get your referral link, then send it to your friend and they’ll get $15 credit added to their first plan. After 2 weeks of them joining the network, you’ll also earn $45 credit to your account as a thanks.

How we source coupon codes
Whether it’s through our affiliate networks, the depths of the world wide web, or our connections with big name brands, here at TechRadar we use every tool at our disposal to source the latest codes. Our coupons team updates each of our pages multiple times a week with the most recent deals, including exclusive coupons negotiated by our Commercial team. We also include the latest sales info directly from retailers to offer the most up-to-date discounts around.
How we test coupon codes
Each coupon you find on TechRadar has been tested before being uploaded by our dedicated Deals & Offers teams. You’ll see a range of offers, from free shipping to student discounts, with savings available on all kinds of products & services. To make sure every coupon is ready to use, we don’t list any user-specific or one-time codes.
We also include all relevant information about coupons, such as expiry dates and any terms & conditions, near the ‘Get Code’ button. You can see the details for an individual offer by clicking on the ‘Terms & Conditions’ text below the code and expanding the code area.
What to do if a coupon code doesn’t work
Although we do our best to ensure all listed codes are tried & tested, sometimes coupons expire or terms & conditions are changed before we can update pages. Our team works hard to make sure our coupons are active and work as intended, and should you encounter an issue when using one, we’ll work just as hard to help.
The best place to start is by checking the requirements. Click “View terms and conditions” to expand the code section and see any guidance on your chosen coupon. For example, you may need to meet a minimum spend, add other items to your basket to qualify for a multibuy offer, or confirm that your chosen code applies to the items in your basket (i.e. 10% off laptops).
If you’re still having issues using your code, you can email our customer service team on coupons.techradar@futurenet.com. Include as many details as possible – such as which code you used and which coupon page it’s listed on so our team can address your issue as fast as possible.
How we make money
When it comes to coupons, TechRadar earns money via a commission-based model. For every brand we have a coupon page for, we’ve negotiated a deal that means we earn a percentage of total basket value in commission back from every order.
Using this model means we can offer our coupons to our customers free of charge. You won’t pay any fees to add your chosen coupon to your basket – you’ll simply pay the final order total once your discount has been applied.
