Ting shows two plans on its compare page and hides four more behind a "See all plans" link. The two on display are the two worth buying. The four behind the link are still purchasable, and every one of them is beaten by the $25 unlimited plan — one charges exactly the same money for 5GB. Verified against Ting's own compare-plans page on July 31, 2026.
The two plans Ting promotes
- Unlimited 25 — $25/mo per line, unlimited high-speed data. Ting flags this as its best value, and it is.
- Flex — $10/mo per line, unlimited talk and text, with shared high-speed data billed at $5/GB as you use it.
Both include unlimited talk and text, nationwide LTE and 5G coverage, mobile hotspot, voicemail, pay-per-use international calling rates, and — importantly — no data overage charges. There's no contract and no prepayment; you can adjust or cancel at any time.
The four plans behind the link
Ting also still sells Set 5, Set 12, Unlimited and Unlimited Pro. They aren't retired — they sit behind the "See all plans" link on the compare page, and you can buy them today. You shouldn't.
- Set 5 — $25/mo for 5GB. The same price Ting charges for unlimited data on Unlimited 25.
- Set 12 — $35/mo for 12GB. Ten dollars more than the unlimited plan, for a cap.
- Unlimited — $45/mo for 22GB of high-speed data. The name is the only thing it has over the $25 plan.
- Unlimited Pro — $55/mo for 35GB of high-speed data. Thirty dollars more than Unlimited 25.
Flex is for a specific person
At $10/mo plus $5/GB, Flex is cheapest only if you're genuinely on Wi-Fi nearly all the time. Two gigabytes of use puts you at $20 — at which point you're $5 from unlimited. Three gigabytes and you're paying more than Unlimited 25 for far less. Flex makes sense for a backup line, a kid's first phone, a car or tablet line, or a phone that lives on home and office Wi-Fi.
Where Ting wins
- Ting Internet subscribers — $10/mo unlimited is close to unbeatable.
- Anyone who wants unlimited high-speed data without a data ceiling to read the fine print on. At $25, Ting doesn't publish a throttle threshold the way most MVNOs do.
- Households mixing usage: one Flex line for a light user, one Unlimited 25 for a heavy one, on one account.
- People who hate overage anxiety. Ting's whole model removes it.
- Support quality — Ting has consistently been better here than budget-carrier norms.
Where it loses
- Taxes and fees aren't included in the advertised rate, so $25 isn't your bill.
- International use is thin — pay-per-use calling rates and pay-per-use data, with no bundled Canada/Mexico roaming. Google Fi or Mint are stronger here.
- No perks. There's no included streaming service, watch line, or device deal — Ting competes purely on price and simplicity.
- Device support beyond phones is limited compared with the majors.
