Total Wireless has launched Total Wireless Edge, a groundbreaking device financing program that eliminates traditional barriers preventing prepaid customers from accessing premium devices. The program offers flagship smartphones like the iPhone 16e for \$0 down and as low as \$0 per month after promotional credits—with no credit score requirements for existing customers with qualifying payment history. For wireless dealers, Total Wireless Edge financing prepaid wireless dealers represents a massive opportunity to sell high-end devices to budget-conscious customers who were previously locked out of financing options, dramatically increasing transaction values and customer satisfaction.
What Is Total Wireless Edge?
Total Wireless Edge is a comprehensive device financing solution provided through Glow Services Corp and created specifically for prepaid customers. Unlike traditional financing programs that require credit checks and down payments, Total Wireless Edge rewards customer loyalty and payment history.
Key Features of Total Wireless Edge:
$0 Down Payment: No upfront costs for eligible customers
As Low as $0/Month: iPhone 16e available for $0/month after promotional credits
No Credit Score Required: Existing Total Wireless customers with qualifying payment history gain access regardless of credit score
0%-24.9% APR: Competitive rates based on underwriting (0% APR available to well-qualified customers)
24-Month Financing: Flexible payment terms
Loyalty Rewards: The longer customers stay and pay on time, the more they save
Premium Device Access: iPhone 16e, Samsung Galaxy flagships, and other high-end devices
Why This Is a Game-Changer for Prepaid Customers
For years, prepaid customers have faced the "prepaid penalty"—limited approval rates, costly financing, and few affordable paths to premium devices. Total Wireless Edge eliminates those barriers:
The Old Prepaid Reality:
Pay full price upfront ($800-1,200 for flagship phones)
Accept low-end devices with limited features
Face high rejection rates for third-party financing
Pay 20-30% APR on approved financing
Provide large down payments ($200-400)
The New Total Wireless Edge Reality:
$0 down on premium devices
As low as $0/month after promotional credits
No credit score required for existing customers
0%-24.9% APR based on underwriting
Access to latest iPhone, Samsung, and Google devices
How Total Wireless Edge Works
For New Customers:
New Total Wireless customers apply for financing through Glow Services Corp. Approval is based on standard underwriting criteria, with rates from 0%-24.9% APR.
For Existing Customers:
Existing Total Wireless customers with a qualifying payment history gain automatic access to financing, regardless of credit score. This rewards loyalty and on-time payments.
Example Financing Scenarios:
$600 device at 0% APR: $25/month for 24 months. With $25/month promotional credit = $0/month
$600 device at 14.68% APR: $29/month for 24 months. With $25/month promotional credit = $4/month
iPhone 16e: $0 down, as low as $0/month after promotional credits for eligible customers
Why This Matters for Wireless Dealers
1. Dramatically Increased Transaction Values
Prepaid customers typically purchase low-end devices (\$100-300) due to upfront cost constraints. With Total Wireless Edge financing prepaid wireless dealers can now sell flagship devices (\$800-1,200), increasing average transaction values by 300-400%.
2. Expanded Customer Base
Budget-conscious customers who couldn't afford premium devices can now access them. This expands your addressable market significantly.
3. Improved Customer Retention
Customers financing devices through Total Wireless Edge are locked into 24-month payment plans, dramatically improving retention and reducing churn.
4. Competitive Advantage Over Postpaid
Total Wireless Edge offers comparable financing to postpaid carriers—without credit checks, contracts, or activation fees. This levels the playing field.
5. Higher Commissions
Selling flagship devices generates higher commissions than budget phones. Total Wireless Edge enables you to earn more per transaction.
How Wireless Dealers Can Capitalize on Total Wireless Edge
1. Educate Customers on the "No Credit Score" Benefit
Most prepaid customers assume they can't finance premium devices due to poor credit. Change that perception:
"With Total Wireless Edge, you don't need good credit to get the iPhone 16e. If you've been a Total Wireless customer and paid on time, you're automatically approved—regardless of your credit score. Get the iPhone 16e for \$0 down and as low as \$0 per month."
2. Position Total Wireless Edge as Superior to Rent-to-Own
Many prepaid customers use rent-to-own services that charge 50-100% markups. Show them Total Wireless Edge is better:
"Rent-to-own stores charge \$1,500 for an \$800 phone. Total Wireless Edge offers 0%-24.9% APR with no down payment. You'll save hundreds of dollars and own your phone in 24 months."
3. Highlight the \$0 Down, \$0/Month iPhone 16e Offer
This is your headline offer. Use it aggressively in marketing:
"Get the brand-new iPhone 16e for \$0 down and \$0 per month with Total Wireless Edge. No credit check required for existing customers. Walk out with a flagship iPhone today!"
4. Target Existing Total Wireless Customers
Existing customers with payment history are automatically approved. Reach out proactively:
"You've been a loyal Total Wireless customer. As a thank you, you're pre-approved for Total Wireless Edge financing—no credit check needed. Upgrade to the iPhone 16e, Samsung Galaxy S25, or Google Pixel 10 for \$0 down today!"
5. Create In-Store Financing Displays
Prominently display Total Wireless Edge messaging:
Window Posters: "$0 Down, $0/Month iPhone 16e with Total Wireless Edge"
Counter Cards: "No Credit? No Problem! Get Approved for Total Wireless Edge"
Device Tags: Show monthly payment amounts next to device prices
6. Train Your Team on Financing Conversations
Ensure every staff member can confidently explain Total Wireless Edge:
How it works (no credit check for existing customers)
Monthly payment examples
Promotional credit details
Approval process
Benefits vs. rent-to-own or full-price purchases
7. Bundle with Accessories
Customers financing premium devices are prime candidates for high-margin accessories:
Premium cases ($30-60)
Screen protectors ($20-40)
Wireless chargers ($25-50)
Bluetooth speakers ($40-100)
Smartwatches ($150-400)
8. Leverage Social Media and Local Advertising

Google Ads: Target "prepaid phone financing," "no credit phone financing," "Total Wireless financing"
SMS Campaigns: Text existing Total Wireless customers about their pre-approval

Overcoming Common Customer Objections
Objection 1: "I have bad credit."
Response: "If you're an existing Total Wireless customer with a qualifying payment history, you're automatically approved—no credit check required. Your loyalty and on-time payments are what matter."
Objection 2: "I can't afford a down payment."
Response: "Total Wireless Edge requires \$0 down. You can walk out with the iPhone 16e today without paying anything upfront."
Objection 3: "I don't want to be locked into a contract."
Response: "Total Wireless Edge is a device payment plan, not a service contract. You're financing the phone over 24 months, but you can pay it off early anytime with no penalties. Your Total Wireless service remains no-contract."
Objection 4: "What if I can't make a payment?"
Response: "Total Wireless Edge offers flexible payment options. If you experience financial hardship, contact Glow Services Corp to discuss your options. The key is staying in communication."
The Bigger Picture: Prepaid Is Going Premium
Total Wireless Edge signals a major shift in the prepaid industry. For decades, prepaid customers were relegated to low-end devices and second-class treatment. That's changing:
Prepaid customers demand premium devices: They want iPhones, Samsung Galaxies, and Google Pixels—not budget phones
Financing eliminates the prepaid penalty: No more choosing between affordable service and premium devices
Loyalty is rewarded: Existing customers with payment history gain automatic approval
Prepaid competes with postpaid: Total Wireless Edge offers comparable financing to Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile postpaid plans
Wireless dealers who embrace this shift and aggressively promote Total Wireless Edge financing prepaid wireless dealers will capture significant market share from postpaid carriers and rent-to-own stores.
