Multi-line pricing
T-Mobile's per-line cost falls sharply with lines, helped by a current third-line-free promotion. Totals are for the whole account with AutoPay, excluding taxes and fees.
Third-line-free is applied via monthly bill credits and stops if you cancel a line. Essentials is not sold as a single line at these rates. Prices exclude taxes, fees and the device connection charge of up to $35 per line.
T-Mobile at a glance
What you'll actually pay
Single-line pricing is where T-Mobile looks worst. $100 for one line on Beyond falls to $53.75 per line at four and $49.38 at eight. If you're buying one line, prepaid brands on the same network (Metro at $30, Mint, Ultra) do the job for a fraction of it.
The current third-line-free promotion is doing a lot of work in these numbers: three lines on Beyond are $170, the same as two lines plus a free one. The credits stop if you cancel a line, so the per-line math changes if the account shrinks.
Read the benefits as money. T-Mobile values Beyond's bundle at Netflix $8.99, Apple TV $9.99, Hulu $11.99, satellite $10 and ScamShield Premium $4 per month. If you'd buy even half of those, the effective price drops substantially. If you'd buy none, you're paying for them anyway.
The five-year price guarantee covers talk, text and 5G data only, with taxes and fees excluded. It's a real commitment and longer than Verizon's three years, but it isn't a guarantee that your bill won't move.

Frequently asked questions
What is T-Mobile's 5-year price guarantee?+
T-Mobile commits to holding the monthly price for on-network talk, text and 5G data for five years on its Experience plans. Exclusions apply: notably taxes and fees, which can still change.
Which T-Mobile plan is the best value?+
Experience More at $85 for a single line, or $140 for three. It includes unlimited premium data, a 60GB hotspot, Netflix Standard with ads and 4K streaming. Check whether the limited-time Better Value promo is available first. It offers Beyond's benefits at More's price.
What's the difference between Experience More and Experience Beyond?+
Beyond adds T-Satellite, Hulu on us, unlimited hotspot instead of 60GB, 30GB of high-speed data in Canada and Mexico instead of 15GB, 15GB of international data instead of 5GB, $5 watch and tablet lines, and yearly rather than two-yearly phone upgrades. It's $15/mo more on a single line.
How much is T-Mobile for a family?+
Experience Beyond is $170 for three lines, $215 for four and $260 for five: $53.75 per line at four. Experience More is $140, $170 and $200. A third-line-free promotion is currently applied via bill credits and ends if you cancel a line.
Does T-Mobile Essentials have unlimited data?+
Data is unlimited but it isn't premium. T-Mobile notes that Essentials customers may see lower speeds than other customers, with further reduction above 50GB a month, and video typically streams in SD.
Is T-Mobile prepaid cheaper than postpaid?+
Considerably, for a single line. Metro by T-Mobile runs on the same network from $25/mo with taxes included, and Mint and Ultra Mobile are cheaper still. T-Mobile postpaid earns its price on multi-line accounts, premium data and the included subscriptions.
