At a glance
If your phone plan feels confusing, a simpler one can help your family understand what you’re getting while keeping costs transparent.
Verizon’s Simplicity Plan gives families a straightforward way to stay connected.
The Simplicity Plan allows you to keep your current phone or buy a new phone and, for a fee, upgrade every year – so you always have the phone you love.
The first wave of Gen Z parents is here — and they’re feeling that their phone plans are adding to their decision fatigue and stress.
Recent research conducted by Morning Consult, on behalf of Verizon, found that Gen Z is the most decision-fatigued generation. In fact, just over 1 in 4 Gen Zers feel anxious about managing a phone plan. Even more telling, nearly 1 in 3 expect the process to be overly complicated.
Does this sound familiar? If the phone plan is creating more stress instead of simplifying your life, it might be time to make a change. Verizon’s Simplicity Plan is designed to make choosing the number of lines you need and the additional plan features you want easier — less stressful for you and more predictable for your budget.
Here are three signs it's time to simplify with Verizon’s Simplicity Plan.
1. Your bill feels overwhelming. The Simplicity Plan can help with that. After taxes and fees, it’s a fixed monthly cost per line, so everyone on your plan gets the same high-quality network at one affordable price point.
2. You’re overwhelmed by the options. When you decide to get your teenager a phone, you just want to know they can text you after soccer practice. You don’t want to think about whether you are getting speeds to support your needs or whether a plan has the streaming services you might use — you just want to know that the plan works for you. The Simplicity Plan packs family-friendly features into one affordable price. What you get:
- Unlimited 5G Ultra Wideband: It provides the high speeds you (and your kids) rely on.
- 10 GB Mobile Hotspot: For streaming videos or finishing up that homework assignment on your laptop when Wi-Fi isn't available, you’ve got what you need.
- Satellite Texting: Your child may still be able to send a message if they need help if they are outside the normal mobile coverage area.
- Call Filter: It means fewer spam calls and robocalls reaching your child's phone.
- Verizon Family: This free family location-sharing app comes with the Simplicity Plan.
3. You want a simpler way to get a phone. With the Simplicity Plan, you have three easy options — you can start with a new phone, keep your current phone or choose to upgrade every year (for an additional monthly fee). So it’s never been easier to get, or keep, the phone you love.
