Create and Manage a Mint Family
The easiest, most affordable way to manage up to 5 lines of service, all in one place.
Benefits of Mint Family
-
CHOOSE YOUR FAMILY
Any existing Mint Mobile user can create a Mint Family with as few as 2 lines (max of 5) by inviting other active users via the Mint Account or the app. Primary account holders get to keep an eye on everyone else’s usage, approve data add-ons and make all payments & plan changes.
-
FLEXIBLE INDIVIDUAL PLANS
Each member of your family gets their own plan length & data amount so you share savings, not data. That’s right, cousin Teddy won’t drain everyone else’s high-speed data watching poker tutorials on YouTube.
-
OUR LOWEST PRICES
Mint Family users can lock in our lowest rates by renewing each line on a 12-month plan with the exclusive, family friendly option to pay every 3 months.
NOT AN EXISTING MINT MOBILE SUBSCRIBER YET?
Take advantage of our new customer offer by purchasing & activating a 3-month plan at our lowest rate to get started. Then build your family online or in the app.
HOW TO CREATE YOUR MINT FAMILY
- Log into your Mint Account online or in the app
- Setup & enable Auto Renewal
- Select "Mint Family"
- Send invites to those you'd like to have join your family (must be active Mint subscribers) and share your unique code with them
- Give family members a moment to accept your invite by entering your unique code in their Mint Account
- Celebrate (high fives all around)
HOW TO MANAGE YOUR MINT FAMILY
As a Primary account holder
Being the Primary account holder means you manage everyone’s accounts easily through the Mint Mobile app or in your Account Management. Here’s what you can do:
- Invite & remove family members, or invite a different member to be the Primary account holder
- View your members’ data usage in real-time
- Change members’ plan
- Raise the data amount at any time
- Lower the data amount at any time (change will be reflected once the plan renews
- Pay for all members’ plans
- We’ll notify you via email & text message when a plan is about to renew so you’re always in the loop.
- Approve add-on requests
- Your family members may request data add-ons, international roaming credit or wallet funds through Account Management or the app. You’ll have 24 hours to approve each request.
- Give your family members cool nicknames like “StreamingSavant”
As a Family Member
As a member of the family, you get to sit back & chill while the Primary account holder pays your bill. So maybe help out around the house or buy them lunch or something. You can also:
- Request data add-ons, international roaming credit & wallet funds from your Primary account holder.
- To request more data online, go to your Mint Family dashboard and choose how much you would like to request.
- To request more data in the app, choose how much you'd like to purchase in the right-hand navigation menu and send the request to your Primary, instead of checking out.
- Once the request is sent, your Primary account holder will have 24 hours to approve it.
- View your request history & track your data usage in real time
If you'd like to change your plan when it's time to renew, that has to be done by the Primary account holder. Reach out to them directly to make this request (using your unlimited talk & text, obvs).
Going solo
Need to opt out and lone wolf it with your own account? No problem. You can leave a Mint Family Plan at any time. Primary account holders would need to invite another family member to take over as the Primary before leaving, or the family will be no more and each member will become responsible for their individual account.
If you’re receiving the 12-month rate while paying every 3 months on your Mint Family plan, your rate will increase because you'll be responsible for making the remaining payments at the 3-month plan rate.
