All you need to do is confirm your device's compatibility and add a new line, and Verizon will send you an e-gift card within 8 weeks.

Verizon plans

Of course, all of the deals above won't matter much if you're not a Verizon member. For years, Verizon has been home to some of the best wireless plans in the business, with everything from feature-packed unlimited plans to flexible prepaid options available. 

That being said, the carrier recently changed the game by introducing Verizon myPlan, a new wireless program that lets you customize your data plan by choosing the individual perks that matter most to you. After all, every cell phone user is different, and finding the perfect plan for you is going to involve looking at a number of factors, such as budget, data usage, and your own personal checklist of must-have features.

With Verizon myPlan, you start by choosing Unlimited Plus, Unlimited Welcome, or Unlimited Ultimate. These plans come with basic perks like unlimited talk, text, and 5G data, alongside mobile hotspots and some limited international benefits. Once you pick your base plan, you get to choose from a long list of Add-Ons for $10 each. These perks range from streaming bundles to cloud storage, a Walmart Plus membership, and beyond. 

Here is the full list of available Add-Ons: 

  • Disney Bundle: Includes Disney Plus (no ads), Hulu (with ads), and ESPN Plus (with ads)
  • Netflix & Max (with ads)
  • 100GB Mobile Hotspot
  • Apple One: Includes Apple Music, Apple TV Plus, Apple Arcade, and iCloud Plus
  • Walmart Plus Membership
  • Apple Music Family
  • +play Monthly Credit
  • 3 days of TravelPass
  • YouTube Premium
  • Unlimited Cloud Storage

The best part is that you can customize the perks at any time with no penalty. Need TravelPass or the Disney Bundle for one month only? Simply pop into the MyVerizon app and adjust your Add-Ons whenever you'd like. 

Verizon myPlan offers the kind of freedom and flexibility that you would never have expected to receive from a Big Three carrier a few years ago. But it's only one small part of the Verizon ecosystem. Keep reading to see all of our favorite Verizon plans.

If you only need one line, Unlimited Plus will set you back $80 per month. But the savings increase as you add lines, with the price dropping as low as $45 per month per line with four lines.

Total by Verizon Unlimited: Starting at $50/mo per line

Prepaid carriers don't typically offer very many entertainment perks, but Total by Verizon is changing all of that by giving users six months of ad-free Disney Premium when they sign up for the Unlimited plan. This wireless plan costs $50/month per line and comes with unlimited talk, text, and data, a 10GB mobile hotspot, and international benefits.

So which Verizon plan is best for you?

Though Verizon offers excellent coverage to a lot of Americans, don't forget to check out its coverage map before signing up. If you decide Verizon is the carrier for you, the Verizon myPlan program is the best choice for most people. It lets you choose all of the perks you need without a bunch of extras that you don't want to pay for. 

If you're looking for a plan with a better price, then Visible stands out amongst the crowd. This all-digital carrier is owned by Verizon, so you'll have the same great coverage (that includes 5G), along with unlimited data, text, and talk for only $45 per month if you opt for the Visible Plus plan. The best part is that there are no contracts or hidden costs or fees as you'll find with other carriers. Whichever plan you get, you'll be with one of the nation's best wireless carriers and can count on reliable performance.

Even considering all of these deals and researching all of these plans, you might not be sold on Verizon. It's important to have all of the information when you switch carriers, so why not take a look at our list of the best cell phone plans so you can make sure you find one that's right for you.
