Today, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) is tackling the financial barrier of upfront costs and making a better wireless experience even more accessible, with the launch of new plans that include Equipment Installment Plan (EIP) Flex 36.<\/p>\n<p id=\"news-body-cta\">This press release features multimedia.

Unlike traditional $0 down offers that still require upfront costs, EIP Flex 36 helps lower upfront costs for everyone and eliminates them entirely for well-qualified customers \u2014 meaning they can walk away with a new phone and pay NOTHING upfront, a $0 out-of-pocket option with, for a limited time, 0% APR.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>EIP Standard 36 <\/b>\u2014 T-Mobile\u2019s traditional financing option with 0% APR for all, now available over 36 months, helping lower monthly payments for all customers, and especially on today\u2019s premium devices.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>New Student Perks Plans <\/b>\u2014 for the first time, T-Mobile gives students the freedom of their own wireless line for less, just $30 a month with AutoPay, plus taxes and fees \u2014 while saving 40% on a single line vs. AT&amp;T and Verizon.

In fact, nearly two-thirds of consumers say they worry about out-of-pocket costs when switching wireless providers. For families, those costs can add up quickly, with average upfront costs more than $120 per line \u2014 that\u2019s almost $500 upfront for a family of four before they even walk out the door. And it\u2019s not just families. More than two-thirds of students say they want a wireless plan of their own for greater autonomy and control, but affordability has often stood in the way.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cToday\u2019s news is another important step in our mission to continue reinventing consumer wireless, making it better for all customers \u2014 and our industry-leading NPS scores show it\u2019s working,\u201d said Andre Almeida, Chief Marketing, Brand and Broadband Officer, T-Mobile. \u201cLast year, we made switching faster and more convenient. Today, we&#8217;re making it more affordable and giving customers more choice in how they join and experience America\u2019s Best Network. Lowering upfront costs with EIP Flex 36 and making our plans more accessible through Student Perks are just the latest ways T-Mobile is continuing to remove the barriers that keep people from experiencing everything T-Mobile has to offer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThese new plans are the latest step in T-Mobile&#8217;s ongoing effort to make switching easier and more accessible \u2014 from <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.t-mobile.com%2Fswitch%2F15-minute-switch&amp;esheet=54583092&amp;newsitemid=20260804519126&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=15-Minute+Switch&amp;index=2&amp;md5=2f223be7c3a0a7f0b1908089a73ef6bc\">15-Minute Switch<\/a>, which dramatically simplified the switching process through the T-Life app, to enabling greater convenience with <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.t-mobile.com%2Fhome-internet%2Fdoordash-same-day-internet&amp;esheet=54583092&amp;newsitemid=20260804519126&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=same-day+device+delivery&amp;index=3&amp;md5=eb70b625e32538702796493786aa824c\">same-day device delivery<\/a> powered by DoorDash.
