What is Mint Mobile’s watch plan?

Mint Mobile’s watch plan is a cellular plan for your smartwatch that includes unlimited talk and text, plus high-speed data, so you can stay connected from your wrist, even when your phone isn’t nearby.

Currently, Mint watch plans support Apple Watch. You can add a watch plan to your Mint phone service for $10/month ($30 upfront payment req’d for 3-month plan; taxes & fees extra).

Do I need a Mint Mobile phone plan to get a watch plan?

Yes, to purchase a Mint watch plan, you’ll need an active Mint phone plan. If your phone isn’t on Mint Mobile yet, you can purchase a plan on our website.

How much does a Mint watch plan cost?

Mint’s watch plan is $10/month and always aligns with the term and renewal date of your active Mint phone plan. Because of this, pricing may be prorated depending on where you are in your current phone plan cycle when you first add watch service.

For example, if you’re on a 3-month phone plan and add a watch plan at the start of your cycle, you’ll pay $30 upfront. If you add a watch plan 1 month into that same 3-month phone plan, you’ll only pay $20 upfront for the remaining 2 months. At renewal, your phone and watch plans will renew together on the same schedule. Taxes & fees extra.

Plan pricing

3-month phone plan: $30 upfront for watch service
6-month phone plan: $60 upfront for watch service
12-month phone plan: $120 upfront for watch service
- A pay-over-time option is available if you’re in a Mint Family for $30 per quarter

Can I get a watch plan for my kid?

Mint’s watch plan is tied to a Mint Mobile phone line, so it’s designed to be used alongside an active phone plan. If your child has their own Mint Mobile line, you can add a watch plan to that line.
