Light Service Plans
Our service plans are designed specifically for the Light Phone, streamlining the process of going light. All U.S. & Canadian Light Phone orders include a free SIM card.
You can keep your existing phone number or get a new one.
By signing up for one of our Light service plans, you are directly helping support our ongoing development of new features and upgrades. You can sign up for the service plan at any point, contract-free, as long as you have an unused Light SIM card. The Light Service is currently limited to users in the United States and Canada.

How does it work?
Our plans are designed for using the Light Phone as your primary phone. The SIM card is free, and you will not be charged for a plan until you decide to activate the SIM card by signing up for one of our Light Service plans using the Dashboard website. The plan is billed on a 30 day period.
Sign up for our service plan at any point in the future. There are no contract commitments for signing up for the service plan.

What's my phone number?
You can port your existing phone number, or we can provide a new phone number for you.
Unlimited?
Unlimited does mean unlimited calls and texts within the United States. These plans do not include international calling or texting.
The $45/mo. U.S. unlimited data plan is intended for users who plan to heavily use the Light Phone's hotspot functionality. It is an unlimited data plan, but it does begin to throttle after heavy usage as is common with carrier unlimited plans. After 22GB & up to 50GB, data usage is slowed to a max of 3 Mbps, after 50GB data is slowed to 128 Kbps for the rest of the billing cycle. This throttling may impact the functionality of data-intensive applications like video streaming.
Additional fees/taxes?
All service plans include certain fees such as state E911 fees, state taxes and local taxes. You can see a break down of all of these fees on your monthly invoices. To download your invoices, login to your account and go to Settings > Payment History.
Family Plans?
Unfortunately we do not yet offer family plans on the Light Service, although this is something we'd like to support in the future. If you plan to use multiple Light Service lines, we recommend activating the lines using the same Light Account to centralize all your Light Service plans on one account and email.

Reminder:
The Light Service is not mandatory for using the phone. If you choose to use a SIM from another compatible carrier, you will not need a Light Service plan.
