We ranked every family plan by true per-line cost. Cricket and US Mobile dominate. Here's the full breakdown.
Family plans are where carriers compete hardest — and where you can save the most. We compared every multi-line plan for 4+ lines.
Our Top 5 (4 Lines, Price Per Line)
1. Cricket Unlimited — $25/line ($100/month total) AT&T network. All taxes included. Speeds capped at 8 Mbps but fine for regular use. The best pure-value family plan.
2. US Mobile Unlimited Premium — $25/line ($100/month total) Choose Verizon or T-Mobile network. Premium plan includes actual priority data on Verizon. Streaming perks included.
3. Visible+ — $30/line ($120/month total) Verizon network with premium data priority. No family discount — same price per line regardless. But priority data is rare at this price.
4. T-Mobile Go5G — $55/line for 4 lines ($220/month total) Premium carrier experience. 100GB priority data, 5G, good perks. Worth it if you value speed consistency.
5. Mint Mobile — $30/line ($120/month total) No family discount but still cheap. Must prepay 12 months ($1,440 upfront for 4 lines). T-Mobile network.
The Math
Switching a 4-line family from Verizon Unlimited Plus ($45/line = $180/mo) to Cricket ($25/line = $100/mo) saves $960/year.
