Got questions?

  • Smartphone Equality is a program that helps our T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile prepaid customer move to our postpaid service and you get our best available pricing on new smartphones, devices, and additional lines—that means $0 down on select devices and no credit check.

  • Prepaid customers must switch to a Go5G or Magenta plan to take advantage of Smartphone Equality benefits.

    • To be eligible for Smartphone Equality, you must make 12 consecutive on-time payments and be on a prepaid qualifying plan.

    Prepaid customers who qualify must switch to a T-Mobile Postpaid plan to take advantage of T-Mobile Postpaid plan benefits such as Magenta Status, Netflix ON US* with ads, up to 50GB high-speed mobile hotspot data, T-Mobile Travel benefits, and much MORE!

  • No. This T-Mobile program is a customer benefit that will not have an impact on your credit score.

  • Consecutive on-time payments are payments posted to your account within 48 hours after your bill cycle ends and continue for 12 months in a row.

  • Prepaid customers aren't required to provide their Social Security number to qualify for Smartphone Equality.

  • If you have a prepaid plan and miss or are late on a subsequent payment before switching to a Magenta plan then you will lose the Smartphone Equality benefits, and your payment history will be reset.

  • No. Your payments will be automatically tracked to determine whether you qualify for Smartphone Equality. Signing up for AutoPay makes qualifying for Smartphone Equality even easier, and is completely optional.
