Ready to switch to Visible and start saving on your phone bill? It's a great idea, especially if you can bring your own phone and not have to worry about buying a new one. The good news is most modern phones will work on Visible... but what if you happen to have one of the few devices that does not?
The new Visible Payback program could solve your problem. If your phone is incompatible, you could get discounted rates on your Visible phone plan to help you pay for a new phone.
Visible's plans are already priced highly competitively. With the Visible Payback, you get to pay even less.
What is Visible Payback?
Visible Payback is a program for customers switching to Visible. It offers discounts on your Visible service plan if you buy an eligible phone when your old phone is incompatible. The promotional rate will last 12 or 24 months to help offset what you pay for the new phone.
Expert tip: Pair this deal with Visible's Bring a Friend referral program for extra savings on your Visible plan.
Visible plans eligible with Payback
The Payback program is eligible with all of Visible's unlimited plans. You can also join whether your plan length is monthly or annually.
Visible offers some of the best unlimited plans on Verizon's network. Not only are the prices cheaper than most competitors, but offer unlimited data and an unlimited mobile hotspot.
Here's Visible's full slate of plans eligible with the Payback program:
Who is eligible for Visible Payback?
To participate in Visible Payback and get the lower rates, you must meet the following criteria:
- Be new to Visible (switching from another carrier)
- Have a phone that is not compatible with Visible
- Purchase an eligible phone from Visible
How do I sign up for Visible Payback?
To take advantage of Visible Payback, you'll simply start by checking your current phone's compatibility with Visible. If your device does not work with Visible, you'll see an option to join Visible Payback.
From here you can create a Visible account and purchase an eligible Visible Payback device in full.
Do I have to trade in my old phone?
No! Visible Payback is not a trade-in deal. You can keep your phone and do whatever you want with it. You can try selling it or you can even donate it.
Is Visible Payback a finance plan?
Visible Payback is not a finance plan. You must purchase your eligible phone upfront and in full. Visible Payback will apply discounts to your phone plan for 12 or 24 months.
What phones can I buy with Visible Payback?
Select phones are eligible for Visible Payback. Phones seem to be limited to budget-level devices. At the introduction of the program, the TCL 30 LE ($99) and Orbic Joy ($80) were the only devices the carrier was offering through Visible Payback.
You're not likely to find flagship devices like the Samsung Galaxy S phones or iPhones on Visible Payback (check out Visible's latest deals for that). However, if you want a serviceable phone that can connect you to the internet and get you into popular apps while getting a good discount on an already low-cost plan, Visible Payback could be a great option for you.
