If you're on the hunt for a great Mint Mobile deal, you've come to the right place: this guide has everything you need to know about saving money with the T-Mobile-owned carrier.

As we detail in our Mint Mobile review, the prepaid carrier uses T-Mobile's 5G and 4G LTE network to bring you great coverage at an even better price. The interesting thing about the MVNO carrier is that you pay for 3, 6, or 12 months of wireless in advance, giving you a chance to save some serious cash by buying in bulk. The plans range from 5GB to 20GB of data, plus there's an unlimited option if you need even more.

Mint Mobile plans

With plans starting at just $15 a month for three months, it's becoming much harder to justify spending hundreds of dollars for phone service these days. Mint Mobile has several different introductory offers available to new customers, based on how much data you anticipate using monthly.

Mint Mobile also has an Unlimited plan that includes unlimited data, talk and text. While you will get up to 40GB of high-speed data, you will be capped at a speed of 128kbps after you reach that limit. You will also only be able to stream at 480p resolution, and hotspot data is capped at 10GB per month.

The base package is $45 for three months and includes 5GB of data per month. You can step up to 15GB per month for $60 total, or 20GB per month for $75 for the three month period. After the introductory period, the monthly cost does go up by a few bucks, but even at the regular price these deals from Mint Mobile are hard to beat. 

If you want to prepay for longer periods of time, Mint Mobile also offers six-month and one-year plans. If you're ready to just go all-out, you can get one year of Mint Mobile service that includes unlimited talk, text, and 40GB of data per month for just $360 total. That makes each month of service just $30, which is probably a fraction of what you're paying now.

Wondering how Mint Mobile compares with other prepaid wireless carriers? Witness the battle of the MVNOs with our Mint Mobile vs. Boost Mobile or Mint Mobile vs. Metro by T-Mobile to see which alternative carrier is right for you.
