Helium Mobile™ Launches Nationwide $20/Month Unlimited Plan & Introduces Outdoor Helium Mobile Hotspots™

Business Wire
·3-min read

  • Unlimited data, text and talk that is almost 8X more affordable than the average U.S. cell bill

  • New Outdoor Helium Mobile Hotspot helps communities expand the Helium Network: Mobile service backed by people-powered Hotspots and the nation’s largest 5G network

LOS ANGELES, December 05, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Helium Mobile has launched its no-contract nationwide $20/month phone plan with unlimited data, talk, and text. In the last year, major carriers have quietly reduced data limits, increased contracts tied to phone financing, and raised pricing. With a bring-your-own-device policy, Helium Mobile’s subscribers have the freedom to keep or change their phone or service when they want, putting control back in the hands of customers.

"Traditional carriers think they have Americans over a barrel. At Helium Mobile, we believe that cell phones are an essential service and unlimited data, text and calls are table stakes," said Amir Haleem, CEO of Nova Labs, parent company of Helium Mobile. "We are tired of carriers that hide high subscription rates, roaming and additional data fees behind free phone upgrades that lock you into years of expensive plans. Americans deserve better."

Designed for popular apps like YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or Snap and people who want unlimited data to post, stream and game, Helium Mobile’s mission is to bring affordable, reliable cell service to Americans.

With rising inflation, the average American spends $157/month on their cellular plan, making an essential utility cost prohibitive for many families. Helium Mobile’s $20/month plan makes unlimited service accessible for everyone.

Reliable Nationwide Coverage, Data Privacy and the Opportunity to Earn Rewards:

  • A new kind of coverage: Helium Mobile’s service combines the people-powered Helium Network and the nation’s largest 5G network.*

  • It’s your business: Subscribers want service and that’s what Helium Mobile provides. No strings. Your data will never be sold to third parties.

  • Rewards: Subscribers that help map Helium Network coverage earn MOBILE rewards which they can use to pay for their phone plan.

Fed up with coverage dead zones? Be a Network Builder with Outdoor & Indoor Helium Mobile Hotspots: Helium Mobile supports people-powered coverage and enables customers, not carriers, to become network owners and operators. As with other industries like Airbnb or Uber, when you reduce monopolies and let customers be owners, service improves, costs go down and everyone benefits. This is one of the ways Helium Mobile reduces costs and improves coverage where it matters most - to our customers. Subscribers have been locked into expensive coverage that ties them to one or two potential carriers at their homes. With Helium Mobile Hotspots, subscribers can own and set up "mini cell towers." Dead zones can become a thing of the past when anyone can become a builder and set up a hotspot to expand the network for themselves and the community. Starting today, the Outdoor Helium Mobile Hotspot™ ($499) and Indoor Helium Mobile Hotspot™ ($249) are available for purchase nationwide.
