Mint Mobile keeps phone service simple with contract-free plans you pay for monthly, a lot like a streaming service or gym membership. It's powered by T-Mobile, using the larger provider's towers to deliver reliable, trustworthy service to customers. It's one of the most budget-friendly plans you can choose, and with the frequent Mint Mobile deals you can find, it's even more so.
Right now, the best Mint Mobile offer that shoppers can take advantage of bundles Minternet with Unlimited wireless for a year, effectively bringing cellular service down to $5 a month. If you don't need internet, you can also take advantage of Mint's usual new customer offer. This knocks 3-month plans down by $5 for newcomers, matching the low price usually locked to yearly commitments.

Today's best Mint Mobile plans and deals
Mint Mobile is almost always offering a deal, but they're not all created equal. Right now, the best savings shoppers can score features a year of Minternet bundled with a year of Unlimited service for only $45 a month ($540 up front). If you're shopping for both internet and cell service, that effectively locks in an intro offer of Minternet pricing plus $5 Unlimited for 12 months.
Not shopping for internet? You can also still find the brand's typical new-customer offer: $5 off the 3-month plan. That brings the 5GB plan to $15 a month, the 15GB plan to $20 a month, the 20GB plan to $25 a month, and the Unlimited plan to $30 a month.
Mint's base plan offers 5GB of data with unlimited talk and text starting at $15 per month. Just sign up for a Mint Mobile SIM kit and select the three-month plan, and pay for more data as you go if needed.
Mint Mobile's 15GB data plans can be all you need if you don't usually use more than 15GB of monthly data and if T-Mobile's coverage works for you. The 12-month package offers the best value, but unfortunately, it locks you in for a year. However, new customers can try the carrier for three months at discounted rates.
This plan offers unlimited talk and text, plus 20GB of data for $25 per month. Just sign up for a Mint Mobile SIM kit and select the three-month plan.
Mint's Unlimited plan offers unlimited talk, text, and data, now with no data caps. We recommend signing up for this option to maximize your savings, as it's typically the most expensive option in the lineup.
While we've definitely seen better offers from Mint, this is still a solid sign-up benefit for newcomers to the service.
Still need a phone? The deals above require you to bring your own device, but you can still save big on a new smartphone with Mint's limited-time holiday deal. Select items, including the entire Samsung Galaxy S25 and Google Pixel 10 lineups, can get up to $200 off, plus more if you trade in an eligible device.
In addition to unlimited talk and text, all Mint plans include free calling to Canada and Mexico, WiFi calling and texting, and free mobile hotspot access to share your phone's data with other devices. Hotspot data is limited to 10GB on the Unlimited plan, though.

Mint Mobile home internet deals
Mint Mobile's newly added internet plans — called 5G Home Minternet — are an incredible value for shoppers to take advantage of. New signups can get their first three months for only $40 each, matching the price of a one-year commitment without the longer term. Mint Mobile users can save even more, bringing the price down to just $30 a month.
$120 $150 Save 20%
Using T-Mobile hardware and service, Mint Mobile now offers affordable home internet in convenient monthly bundles — no long contracts necessary. It's more affordable if you happen to be a Mint Mobile user, but you don't need to be to enjoy the low-cost service.
After the initial three-month period, plans renew at $10 extra, costing $40 or $50 a month. To avoid the price hike, you can sign up for a longer term, such as a six-month or annual plan, which won't increase.

Mint Mobile sale on phones
Mint's base plans require you to bring your own device, but you can also save big by buying one directly from the provider. Right now, the retailer is holding a holiday sale featuring hundreds off the entire Samsung Galaxy S25 and Google Pixel 10 lineup when bundled with Unlimited service. It's a great sale, especially if you have an old phone to trade in to save you even more.
Is Mint Mobile good?
Ask most price-savvy wireless service shoppers which company they should consider switching to for the lowest possible monthly phone bill, and Mint Mobile is almost guaranteed to come up. That's for good reason—Mint Mobile offers solid wireless service on the same networks the big names use for a fraction of the cost. Specifically, Mint Mobile runs on T-Mobile's nationwide 5G network and is now owned by that very company.
In our Mint Mobile review, we found that while overall service quality was pretty good, data speeds could be a little slow during peak usage. This affected video call quality enough that you might opt to wait until you're on WiFi for Facetime action. But at only $15 a month, it is still one of the best values in alternative phone service, and signing up is easy with all of the Mint Mobile deals targeting new customers.
How Mint Mobile's family plan works
Mint Mobile's "Modern Family" plan diverges from the traditional family plans often touted by other carriers, which commonly feature discounts for adding additional lines. Instead, Mint charges the same rate for each line as it does for the first.
The real benefit of Mint's family plan lies in its centralized management rather than cost savings. Customers can initiate a family plan with at least two lines, each priced according to its data allowance. For instance, a family could opt for a plan that includes one unlimited data line, a 15GB line, and a 5GB line.
How Mint Mobile's unlimited data plan works
One of the Mint Mobile plans features unlimited data starting at $30 per month (currently discounted to $15), making it one of the more budget-friendly options available. Like many in its league, Mint limits the amount of high-speed data you get after hitting a certain threshold—40GB of usage in this case. After that, your speeds are cut down considerably until your cycle refreshes.
