Ready to switch from your current Lifeline provider to Life Wireless?
If you have been receiving Lifeline benefits with another Lifeline provider for more than 60 days, simply fill out a Life Wireless application. If your application is approved, your lifeline benefit will be switched automatically to Life Wireless.
If you have had service with another Lifeline provider for less than 60 days, you'll need to de-enroll from your current carrier before applying for service with Life Wireless since you may only receive one Lifeline discount per household.
Make the switch to more. More data. More hotspot. More great connection on America's most dependable 5G network. Make the switch to Life Wireless. Apply today!
