It offers the same unlimited perks as other plans, but allows each person to set up their own account and pay their own bills, meaning that one friend who’s good with money doesn’t have to keep track of the billing cycle for the whole group anymore. We’ve written about Visible before, but they recently released a new plan, called Party Pay, that allows members to join the same phone plan, or “party,” but pay their own bills separately. Still, as long as you and your friends are responsible about paying each other (and the bill) on time, any family plan can be a friend plan.Ĭurrently, Visible is the only carrier that offers a phone plan specifically targeted to friend groups, or groups of people who want to pay separate bills but reap the rewards of a singular phone plan. Many carriers, including T-Mobile, have tried promoting phone packages to friend groups, but don’t currently have any friend plans available. While almost all phone carriers offer multi-line shared plans, few are targeted specifically to friend groups instead of families. Visible's Party Pay plan is the only plan that currently targets friend groups. But is it that easy to orchestrate a joint account with friends? And is it smart-or deceptively silly? How does a family phone plan work? Family cell phone plans are an incredibly appealing option for those looking to save money each month-just gather a group of four people, get them on the same line, and feel confident that you’ve bested The Man.
That drives many people to take advantage of family plans, or multi-line shared plans, offered by carriers. Getting a single-line phone plan is an easy way to overpay for your monthly phone bill (unless you’re using a plan built for individual lines, like Visible. It all leaves you with one question: Am I getting the best deal on my phone plan? It doesn’t help that the big three carriers are constantly changing their plans, offering yearly contracts and phone leases that make your phone bill fluctuate every few years. There are literally dozens of phone plans available, all with varying levels of data caps, minutes and texts. Navigating all the different cell phone plans out there leaves you feeling just about the same way my mother does when I sing the chorus of “Work It” to her: confused and frankly terrified.
