Can You Use a Sprint Phone on Boost Mobile?

Tired of paying exorbitant prices for a cellular plan with Sprint? Consider moving to Boost Mobile, which is a low-cost alternative carrier that offers month-to-month plans at attractive prices. But can you use a Sprint phone on Boost Mobile?

Yes, you can. Why would Sprint let you switch over to Boost Mobile? The answer is partly because Sprint now owns Boost Mobile. If and when you’re interested in taking advantage of all that Boost Mobile has to offer, here’s a look at everything you need to know about making the change.

Things You’ll Need to Switch

Before you get started with switching over to Boost Mobile, here’s a look at the 4 things you’ll need:

1. A Sprint phone or a phone that operates on Sprint’s network (the device MUST BE unlocked)

2. All of the personal information on the phone’s bill with its existing carrier (like name, address, account number, etc.)

3. The phone’s identification number (which should be located on the phone itself)

4. The PIN number associated with the phone’s current carrier

If you’re interested in keeping your existing number rather than getting a new one, make sure you don’t cancel it. Keep your existing number with your existing carrier, and Boost Mobile can assist with moving it over to your new account.

Available Boost Mobile Plans

Boost Mobile is available in a wide range of different plans, including plans that serve up to 5 different devices (if you have a large family and lots of devices that need the same plan).

The base plans you can choose from include:

• $35/Month: This gets you 3 gigs of 4G LTE

• $50/Month: This gets you unlimited gigs of 4G LTE

• $60/Month: This gets you unlimited gigs of 4G LTE and HD streaming

All Boost Mobile plans come with no annual contracts, taxes and fees included in the price, unlimited music streaming and 99% nationwide coverage. As an added bonus, there’s no credit check to sign up.

In short: There’s a lot to like about switching from Sprint to Boost Mobile.

Bring Your Sprint Device — Or Get a New One

Sprint devices that you bring to Boost Mobile must be compatible with Boost Mobile’s network. Interested in bringing your device over? You can check its compatibility here.
