As part of the Affordable Connectivity Program, Cricket is striving to make mobile data more affordable for those who qualify for the FCC-backed program.

Cricket has dropped a couple of new changes that may make its mobile data plans a little more cost-effective for customers. The biggest savings on those plans could come from qualifying for the Affordable Connectivity Program backed by the Federal Communications Commission , while the second change is just a slight increase to its monthly data cap for the basic 5G plan.

Affordable Connectivity Program Those eligible for the Affordable Connectivity Program can now seek coverage with Cricket. Customers enrolled in the program could see up to $30 off per month for eligible households. If you reside on Tribal Lands, you could see up to $75 off per month. What would these savings look like month to month?

Now, say you have a family with two kids, and you live on tribal lands. With Cricket’s Unlimited Plan, four lines would come to around $100, but through the program, you’d only be paying $25 total if you received full coverage. Even with just $30 off a month, over the course of a year, a family could save up to $360 on their mobile bill.

Mobile data changes Customers with Cricket’s $30 plan will automatically see an increase in their monthly data from 2GB to 5GB. And those who sign up for the $40 plan that offers 10GB data will also now be able to make and receive calls and texts from Canada and Mexico.
