Real talk: Life’s expensive these days, with 63% of households experiencing financial hardship from recent price increases. With the cost of living rising dramatically, Metro is flipping the script to bring prices down, helping families of four put thousands of dollars back in their pockets with deals on new plans and free devices.
“We get it. Budgets are really tight right now. That’s why we’re giving customers next-level connectivity and brag-worthy benefits that real people love, at prices real people can afford,” said Jon Freier, President, T-Mobile Consumer Group. “For Metro, delivering real, lasting savings for people matters — so we're guaranteeing prices on talk, text and data for five years. No gotchas, just gotcha covered.”
Metro Starter: Delivers Big on the Basics

Sign up a family of four for just $25/person per month with AutoPay (it’s $105 total for the first month).
Metro Brings Back Retro Savings: Metro Starter Plus at Just $40 PERIOD
Metro is bringing back its classic $40 PERIOD deal with Metro Starter Plus. New customers who bring their number to Metro can get a free 5G phone and a plan for just $40 a month — no AutoPay required and no added taxes or fees. Originally launched in 2013, Metro is relaunching this deal, now with a 5-year price guarantee on talk, text and 5G data, to keep prices low and give customers the value they deserve.
Getting a new phone and plan for just $40 a month feels like a steal — and the value only grows. Customers get unlimited talk, text and 5G data, plus T-Mobile Tuesdays, a season-long subscription to MLB.TV and MLS Season Pass on Apple TV on Us along with Scam Shield protection. Bring the whole crew to Metro and the deal gets even sweeter: just $25 a line when signing up with four friends or family members.
Metro Flex Unlimited: The Plan That Gets Better with Every Line
Metro Flex Unlimited keeps everything people love about Metro Flex Up while dropping the price of lines two, three and four. A family of four can join Metro Flex Unlimited for just $30/person per month with AutoPay (it’s $125 total the first month), that’s $35 less per month compared to Metro Flex Start. Packed with value and perks, customers get unlimited talk, text and data, plus 8GB of hotspot data along with T-Mobile Tuesdays, Scam Shield and 100GB of free storage with Google One. Just like every Metro Flex plan, customers get a free phone when they join, and upgrades included, meaning they can get the same great deals as new customers after a year of service when trading in their phone.
Metro Flex Unlimited Plus: Unmatched Value and Savings for Families
Metro Flex Unlimited Plus takes everything customers love about Metro Flex Plus and supersizes it, while lowering the price by $10 a month for the first line. Savings add up quickly as more family members join. Families of four save $420 annually on their phone lines alone compared to Metro Flex Plus.
On Metro Flex Unlimited Plus, the best benefits in prepaid got even better. Customers can get over $750 in value their first year alone with a free 5G phone and all the benefits in their plan. New benefits include:
These new benefits add to existing perks including 25GB of hotspot data on our network along with unlimited free texting from the U.S. to 210+ countries and destinations. Plus, all the benefits included in Metro Flex Unlimited.
Peace of Mind with a 5-Year Price Guarantee
Every new Metro plan guarantees the price of talk, text and data for five years — no surprises, just savings. No matter which plan customers choose, they can rest assured that their price stays the same for 5 years from the time they sign up. And, starting on April 24, existing customers on Metro Flex plan and Metro’s BYOD plan will also get the same 5-year price guarantee on their talk, text and data. Bottom line... Metro is a long-term commitment worth saying yes to.
These new rate plans come on the heels of Metro launching Ad It Up, giving customers yet another way to save. Ad It Up, built on the Play2Pay mobile app discovery and engagement platform, gamifies the process of earning credits toward service. In the months since the launch, the average Metro customer has reduced their next month of service’s cost by over $15 with Ad It Up — by playing games, taking surveys or downloading apps. The Ad It Up app is now available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, offering a fun and easy way to save on wireless.
