Best Verizon deals on plans
If you’re interested in great deals on phones and phone plans, there are plenty of choices — but this guide is specifically focused on Verizon deals for current customers, rather than offers meant to entice new subscribers to switch over to the network. That means we aren’t highlighting offers that require you to add a new line, since most people want to upgrade to a new phone on the plan they already have rather than adding lines in an attempt to “save.”
It’s also worth noting that carriers constantly update their deals. In general, the best offers happen around the holidays or new phone launches — that’s usually February or March for Samsung Galaxy S phones and fall for Apple iPhones and Google Pixel phones. That said, Verizon has some compelling offers now, though the best Verizon deals often require you to be on one of the carrier’s newer, pricier unlimited plans.
Though some manufacturers — particularly Apple and Samsung — offer deals via their own websites and stores, most people look to carriers for their new phones. We’ll keep this page updated with the best deals we’re seeing on Verizon’s website.
Best Verizon deals on phones
Many of Verizon’s phone deals are available to both new and existing customers, though trade-ins are often required to get the advertised prices. These deals are split across 36 months of bill credits, meaning you’ll need to remain a Verizon customer for at least three years in order to pay off your phone. If you cancel before that period is over, you’ll be responsible for any remaining charges.

Best Verizon deals on plans
If you’re looking to switch to Verizon, there are a few deals on various plans that may make you lean toward one or the other. Promotions on plans are less common these days, though oftentimes you can get some free extras such as free streaming-service and music subscriptions with enrollment in some of the higher-end 5G plans.
There are a few things to note on Verizon’s plans. First, Verizon often limits these perks to one per account, so only one person on a family plan needs to be on an Unlimited Plan to get the Disney Bundle (Disney Plus, ESPN Plus and Hulu). Other people on the plan can be on cheaper plans like 5G Start — though it is worth mentioning that Verizon limits access to its fastest 5G networks (what it calls 5G Ultra Wideband) to its pricier unlimited plans.
Your company may also offer a corporate discount on plans, but you will need to check to see if that applies to personal accounts. Those who have Fios can check if a corporate discount is available at Verizon’s Deals at Work site.
FAQ
Like the rest of the wireless industry, Verizon has offers available for both new and existing customers. While there are some additional perks and discounts for switchers, many of the deals are under the same terms.
How do Verizon’s discounts work?
If you don’t stick with Verizon through the full 36 months of bill credits, you’ll be responsible for all remaining charges. Before canceling or transferring your service to another carrier, be sure to understand what you’ll owe to make sure you can cover those charges before making a move.
