MVNO Spotlight: Total Wireless

Total Wireless was launched in 2015 and it is one of many Tracfone owned wireless brands. Coverage is provided exclusively by Verizon’s network towers.

In September of 2020, Verizon announced that it had agreed to purchase Tracfone and all of its related brands, including Total Wireless, from América Móvil for up to $6.9 billion. The deal is expected to close in the second half of 2021 pending approval from government regulatory agencies.

Total Wireless offers a variety of phone plans ranging in price from $25 up to $100 for a plan supporting up to 4 lines. Be aware that if you are shopping for a plan on their website, plan prices are advertised with an auto-refill discount applied. The size of the auto-refill discount varies by plan but is about 5%. We’re going to take a look at each plan down below and the difference between pricing with and without auto-refill discounts applied will be made clear.

A selection of cell phones are available for those that need to purchase one. All of the latest trendy devices are carried including the iPhone 12, iPhone SE, and the newest Samsung Galaxy line of devices. There are a lot of budget-oriented devices available too, with pricing under $30. Financing options with monthly payment plans for phone purchases are also offered to qualifying individuals. Interest is as little as 0% APR. A down payment may be required for purchase.
