Learn how our mobile plans work.
How much will I pay per month?
The monthly price depends on how many phone lines you have on your account and which mobile plan you choose:
To get multi-line pricing with our latest plan, you can upgrade your plan by heading to your account online or in the app. See how to upgrade to the latest plan.
If you select Tablet Unlimited data, you’ll be charged $20 for each line. Tablets are not included in multi-line pricing.
If you add a paired or standalone smartwatch you’ll be charged $10 for each line. Smartwatches are not included in multi-line pricing.
As an Xfinity Mobile customer, you may qualify for up to 12 phone lines and 10 smartwatch and tablet lines available on your Xfinity Mobile account. In addition to your data charges, we apply monthly charges such as taxes and fees, which are based on your location.
If you choose to buy your device with a device payment plan (DPP) or add Xfinity Mobile Care (XMC), those amounts are charged on your bill as well. If you choose to get AppleCare+ you will pay a one-time charge at the time of buying your new device. To help you understand your expected charges, we’ll give you an estimated monthly bill before you check out.
*Service availability varies by location.
What is the All-in Tablet & Watch Plan credit?
If your combined tablet and smartwatch monthly cost is more than $35 per month, you will get an All-in Tablet & Watch Plan credit automatically applied to your bill (taxes and fees apply). This discount can apply to up to 10 tablet and/or smartwatch lines on the account.
What are the eligibility requirements for the All-in Tablet & Watch Plan credit?
You must have at least one phone line on Mobile Select or Mobile Plus and a combined monthly tablet and smartwatch cost exceeding $35 per month.
What happens to the All-in Tablet & Watch Plan credit if I remove smartwatches and tablets from my account?
If you remove lines but still qualify for the All-in Tablet & Watch Plan credit with your remaining watch and tablet lines, you continue to see the correct All-in Tablet & Watch Plan credit which will be automatically updated based on the number and types of connected devices (smartwatches and tablets) on the account.
If you remove smartwatch or tablet lines and drop below $35, you return to regular pricing per plan.
Will I be able to switch between mobile plans on the go?
Yes, you can switch between mobile plans using the Xfinity app, over the phone, or in an Xfinity Retail Store.
- If upgrading tiers, you will see the change in your bill and service immediately.
- If downgrading tiers, you will see the change take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.
- You will see only the mobile plans associated with your current plan when you log in to the Xfinity app.
How will I know when my service charges will start?
Your billing cycle starts the moment you activate your device, or seven days after device shipment — whichever comes first. Your card will automatically be charged 20 days after your billing cycle ends. You can also make a one-time payment after your billing cycle ends but before your card is automatically charged.
Here’s a sample of a billing timeline:
- December 6: Device ships
- December 13 (seven days later): Billing cycle begins
- January 12: Billing cycle ends
- February 2 (20 days after your billing cycle ends): Payment is due
Is there a term contract I need to enter to receive services?
There is no term contract required when you sign up for Xfinity Mobile service.
- You can cancel service anytime without paying an early termination fee.
- Learn more about our satisfaction guarantee.
I’m switching to Xfinity Mobile. Will Xfinity Mobile pay the early termination from my old service provider?

Does Xfinity Mobile offer satellite service?
In addition to Xfinity Mobile’s cellular and WiFi connectivity, Xfinity also offers the latest phones with satellite connectivity. Satellite service helps customers stay connected by connecting directly to satellites in space. This is especially helpful in areas where regular WiFi or cell service isn’t available, like remote or rural locations.
A key benefit of satellite connectivity is Satellite SOS (eSOS) messaging, which gives you the ability to reach emergency services via text message if you don’t have traditional coverage. You’ll need a clear view of the sky to connect.
How can I protect my phone?
Customers on our latest plan with Mobile Plus* have Xfinity Mobile Care Plus (XMC Plus)* device protection included and protection for all connected devices (smartwatches and tablets) on their account.
For all other customers, we offer phone protection through XMC. We also offer the option to get AppleCare+, which offers 24 months of coverage, for a one-time charge at the point of sale when you order your new device.
*Service availability varies by location.

Device protection for life with XMC Plus means you keep device protection as long as at least one phone line on your account is on a Mobile Plus plan.
