Connectivity isn’t a luxury. It’s how families reach employers, how kids stay connected to school, and how people access the resources they need every day. At MobileX, we believe losing your phone plans should never be part of losing food assistance.
That’s why we’re stepping in.
As millions of Americans face the suspension of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, MobileX is covering the cost of wireless service for any customer who has lost access to federal food assistance. For as long as the disruption continues, your connection is on us. We want to ensure everyone has access to the best prepaid mobile plans without the burden of extra costs.
Who qualifies
This offer is available to both new and existing MobileX customers who have lost access to SNAP benefits due to the federal suspension.
Existing MobileX customers on any cell phone plans, including the $14.88 Unlimited 10 and $24.88 Unlimited 30 plans, will have the full cost of their current plan covered for the duration of the disruption.
New customers receive unlimited talk and text plus up to 2GB of high-speed data per month at no cost. No contracts, no commitments, no hidden conditions.
How to get connected
Getting set up is straightforward:
- New customers can activate service through the MobileX app on iOS or Android, on our website, on Walmart.com, or at more than 3,700 Walmart stores.
- Choose to activate a new number or keep your existing number by porting it into MobileX.
- Create a support ticket in the app or call our Xpert Care team at 833-422-1053. Once we verify your SNAP participation, your service is covered.
As one of the few truly independent wireless carriers left, we have the freedom to do what is right, not just what is profitable. While others focus on margins, we focus on providing the best mobile phone plans and making sure no one loses their connection when they need it most.
