Why does a free phone offer show a price?

TAG Mobile offers both free phones and optional paid upgrades. If a phone shows a price, you may be viewing an upgrade option rather than a free device.

  • Looking for a free phone? Visit our Free Phones page to explore free device offers for eligible customers.
  • Want to upgrade? Visit our Upgrade Phones page to compare upgrade models and prices.

Enter your ZIP code to check the offers available in your area. Models and prices vary by location, eligibility, and availability. Review your selected device and final order total before submitting.

Are there any hidden costs?

The core Lifeline benefit is completely free. You may pay for an optional device upgrade, a paid plan, or an add-on. To keep your free service active, you’ll complete a quick annual recertification.
