Mint Mobile Launches Prepaid 5G Home Internet With Introductory Rates From $30 a Month

The $30 offer applies only with upfront prepayment alongside a Mint voice plan.

Overview

  • Powered by T‑Mobile’s 5G network, the service went live October 15 in qualifying areas with a standalone introductory option at $40 per month when prepaid for three months.
  • After the initial three months, customers can keep $30 per month by renewing for 12 months upfront, while three‑month renewals run $40 with a Mint phone line or $50 without; six‑month plans are $35 with a phone line or $45 without, and 12‑month plans are $30 with a phone line or $40 without.
  • Reported typical speeds range from roughly 133–415 Mbps down and 12–55 Mbps up, and speeds may slow during congestion after 1 TB of monthly use compared with T‑Mobile’s 1.2 TB threshold.
  • The plug‑and‑play gateway has no monthly equipment fee, is provided on loan, must be returned if service is canceled, and setup is typically under 15 minutes.
  • Mint includes a 14‑day money‑back guarantee to let customers test performance in their home, and taxes and fees are additional.
