What is the ACP?
The ACP is a federal program that provides subsidized internet service for eligible customers.
- Up to one $30/month subsidy for each eligible household
- Up to one $75/month subsidy for each eligible household on Tribal lands
The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) was created by Congress and implemented by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to assist eligible households to pay for internet services. The ACP will provide assistance to customers needing to connect to jobs, healthcare and virtual classrooms.
The goal of this program is to ensure that internet service is affordable for everyone. However, you must use the service to keep the subsidy. If you reach 30 days without any internet usage, you may no longer be eligible to receive the subsidy.
The ACP is funded by Congress. In the event it is discontinued, the FCC will announce its end date. In that case, at the end of the program, you will be charged the undiscounted rate if you continue to receive the service, which will be subject to our general terms and conditions. You may transfer this ACP subsidy to another provider at any time.
Verizon recognizes the importance of internet connectivity and is pleased to make the ACP subsidy available to our eligible customers.
How does the ACP work?
You must sign up to become eligible for ACP.

- You must use the service monthly to maintain ACP enrollment
- You will receive the ACP credit until the program ends as long as you maintain a qualifying internet service and remain eligible for ACP
- You may transfer your ACP credit to another provider at any time. However, you may not transfer your monthly subsidy to another customer.
