Prepaid phones

Prepaid wireless service, also known as pay-as-you-go, lets you pay in advance for your monthly service charges. There are no annual contracts or credit checks, and because you pay for your wireless plan upfront, you’ll know exactly what your monthly charges are. You may also find it easier to stay within your monthly budget, because you will already know your monthly wireless costs.

With AT&T PREPAID plans, you can manage your wireless service online. This makes it simple to pay for your plan, change your plan based on your needs, add lines to your account, and sign up for AutoPay.

Getting started with AT&T PREPAID is easy! Visit att.com/prepaid to shop and sign up online. If you sign up online, there is no activation fee.  You can also visit any AT&T Store to shop for phones and sign up for a monthly service plan.

Prepaid phones work just the same as any other wireless phone. Prepaid customers pay in advance for their service and never have any overage charges. Plus, prepaid customers get all the benefits of the AT&T network with no annual contract or credit check.

A prepaid phone is already a “regular” phone. The only difference is the payment agreement you have with your wireless provider. The phone is the same regardless of whether it is set up for prepaid or post-paid billing. Most popular smartphones, tablets and hotspots can work with either type of wireless plan.
