Mint Mobile’s 10th Anniversary Offer: Six Months of Any Plan for $60

Mint Mobile’s anniversary offer makes the price the same across all four of its six-month plans: new customers pay $60 upfront, or $10 a month for the first six months. That includes the carrier’s Unlimited tier, which normally costs $35 a month. The main catch is the prepaid structure: the $60 covers the introductory period, and what you pay after it ends depends on the plan and renewal term you choose.

Mint is marking 10 years in business with a promotion that turns its usual tiered pricing on its head. The carrier launched in 2016 with a model built around online sign-up and service paid for in blocks ahead of time. It uses T-Mobile’s national 5G network, and customers trade monthly billing for upfront payment in exchange for lower advertised rates. The anniversary pricing makes that trade unusually easy to compare: every six-month option costs the same at the start.

See the anniversary offer, which is available to new customers. Its six-month plan prices are:

  • 6GB: $10 per month for six months, down from $20 per month.

  • 17GB: $10 per month for six months, down from $25 per month.

  • 23GB: $10 per month for six months, down from $35 per month.

  • Unlimited: $10 per month for six months, down from $35 per month.

Mint Mobile deal

For people who use little mobile data, the 6GB tier offers a lower upfront bill than its usual six-month price. The sharper comparison is between the 23GB and Unlimited plans: both cost $60 during the promotion, so customers who need more data can choose Unlimited without paying extra during the introductory period. That makes it the most compelling option on price, provided its terms fit how you use your phone.

What Unlimited includes

Mint’s Unlimited plan runs on T-Mobile’s 5G network and includes up to 20GB of dedicated mobile hotspot data. It also includes calls to Canada, Mexico and the UK, plus standard-definition video streaming. “Unlimited” doesn’t mean every kind of use is unrestricted: after 50GB of data in a 30-day billing cycle, Mint may temporarily reduce speeds in congested areas until the next cycle begins.

That condition matters most for people who rely on mobile data in busy locations or routinely use more than 50GB a month. The plan still offers a generous data allowance at the promotional price, but customers should weigh the hotspot cap, streaming resolution and speed management against their own usage. If video quality or hotspot access is a priority, those details may matter more than the flat introductory rate.

Mint’s service also depends on network availability and device compatibility. Before switching, check whether your phone supports Mint’s service and whether the network works well in the places where you regularly use it.

Activation and the price after six months

Compatible eSIM phones from Apple, Samsung or Google can be activated digitally, without waiting for a physical card to arrive. Customers who prefer a removable SIM can order a kit by mail. Mint also provides an online IMEI checker so you can confirm whether your phone is compatible before signing up.

The promotional rate lasts for the first six months, so the renewal is part of the real cost of switching. Mint offers three-, six- and 12-month renewal blocks; longer commitments can bring the monthly price down, while shorter blocks require less payment upfront. Customers can also change between the 6GB, 17GB, 23GB and Unlimited tiers when renewing.

That structure makes this offer best suited to people comfortable paying ahead and reviewing their plan before renewal. The promotion gives new customers a low-cost way to try Mint’s service for half a year, with the same introductory price across the lineup. Before choosing, check the current renewal rate for your preferred tier and decide whether the post-promotion commitment still works for your budget and data needs. Check the offer details before signing up.
