Your phone plan might be an essential cost, but does it save you money elsewhere? You might not realize it, but the perks in your phone plan can save you serious cash each month. Becoming a T-Mobile subscriber will get you Netflix and Hulu with ads, international data, discounts on selected concert tickets, and weekly offers through T-Mobile Tuesdays, all without paying extra.

If you aren’t with T-Mobile, switching can help you cut back on some of your other costs. That’ll free up more cash for a better phone upgrade too. Although, with T-Mobile’s Nothing offer, you don’t need to pay a cent upfront for certain phones.

TL;DR

  • Subscribe to T-Mobile’s Experience plan for streaming benefits that can cut your monthly subscription costs.
  • Concert ticket discounts and travel benefits give you more ways to save at home and away.
  • Switching is straightforward with a 15-minute checkout and selected phone deals that don’t require you to trade in your current phone.

Give your subscriptions a new home

Forget cable. We’re living in a streaming world. If you’re binging through a series a week on Netflix, there’s a serious advantage to including it in your phone plan. Why pay extra when you can get it for free?

You’ll get ad-supported Netflix with a T-Mobile Experience More or Experience Beyond plan. With Beyond, you'll also get Hulu with ads for free, and you can pick up Apple TV+ for an extra fee. Your plan will cover these subscriptions for as long as it runs.

As a T-Mobile subscriber, you’ll get 25% off tickets to shows at more than 120 venues across the United States. You’re also a Club Magenta member, giving you lounge access and premium views at selected events. Meanwhile, T-Mobile Tuesdays unlocks weekly deals and freebies through the T-Life app.

Keep more of your vacation money

Prefer to get away? Once you’ve booked your flights, you’re free to take advantage of international texting and high-speed data access in more than 215 countries with one of T-Mobile’s Experience plans. Allowances vary, but your maps and messages, not to mention your restaurant searches, will be covered.

You can stay entertained on the way there, too. T-Mobile offers free in-flight Wi-Fi with partner airlines so you can stay caught up with friends and family back home without paying extra.

If you’re sticking close to home, you’re able to take advantage of America’s best network, according to Ookla’s 2026 analysis, with more towers and bandwidth available on the country’s biggest 5G network.

You don't want to spend all afternoon changing your phone network. Luckily, switching to T-Mobile isn’t a hassle. On average, it’ll take you 15 minutes to get through the checkout process if you use T-Mobile’s T-Life app.

You don’t have to wait long to pick up a new phone. Thanks to same-day delivery, your new phone could end up in your hands in just a few hours. You don’t have to part with your existing phone, either, with offers that don’t require a trade-in, letting you keep it as a spare or pass it on to someone who needs it. Plus, with T-Mobile's Nothing offer, you can pay $0 upfront in some cases, with all the fees spread across your entire payment plan.

T-Mobile makes the switching process easy. Once you’re set, you just have to activate the benefits on your plan. Pick the one that fits your needs and keep more of your money each month without giving up the things you enjoy.
