If you’re looking for ways to save money, then cutting expenses from your budget can help. However, there’s no getting around having to pay for cellphone plans if you want to stay connected, which we all do. But you don’t have to overspend every month thanks to budget-friendly plans from Ultra Mobile. Right now, it’s running a few deals ahead of Black Friday that can help you save big bucks.
You can score 50% almost all one-year plans. This includes a deal that gets you one year of unlimited service for only $17 per month. With the cost of many items increasing, it’s good to know there are still ways to keep your budget in check. If that’s too much for you, you can also take advantage of the 4GB plan for $7 per month when you commit to one year.
Ultra Mobile uses T-Mobile towers to offer 5G and 4G LTE service. However, it offers prepaid phone plans that must be purchased upfront in one-, three-, six- and 12-month installments. Choosing a longer coverage period can help you spend less over time, though it means you’ll have to pay a larger lump sum.

To unlock the $17 plan per month, you must choose the Ultra Unlimited Plan. You must prepay for a year, which amounts to a total of $204 and is a significant savings over competing plans. The plan includes unlimited talk across the US and to more than 90 countries, unlimited domestic and international texting, unlimited talk and text while you’re in Mexico and Canada, Wi-Fi calling and Mobile hotspot. Every month, you’ll get a $10 international call credit, and there’s even a one-time $10 international roaming credit.
If this plan isn’t for you, Ultra Mobile also has other budget-friendly 4GB mobile plans that start at $7 per month if you prepay for the year, which comes to just $78. Even then, you’ll still save over time compared to other phone plans. Once you make the switch, you can choose between a SIM or eSIM and easily renew once your term is up.
