About AT&T Switch Deals

AT&T runs competitive switch promotions that rival T-Mobile and Verizon in total value. Their port-in deals often include free flagship phones like the latest iPhone and Samsung Galaxy models, delivered as bill credits when you activate a new line. AT&T is known for strong trade-in offers that stack with port-in promotions for maximum savings.

AT&T and Cricket Wireless are in the same carrier family, so Cricket numbers won't qualify for AT&T switch deals. You'll need a number from T-Mobile, Verizon, Metro, or Boost. If your current number is on Cricket and you want an AT&T deal, buy a $14 port number from Verizon or T-Mobile to qualify for the promotion without affecting your personal line.

AT&T's switch deals typically require activation on an Unlimited Premium or Unlimited Extra plan. They also offer switcher credits to help cover early termination fees from your previous carrier, making it easier to leave mid-contract. Device credits are applied monthly over 36 months, and AT&T's 5G and fiber coverage continues to expand across the country.

AT&T uses 36-month bill credits

AT&T phone deals use 36-month bill credits — the longest standard term. However, AT&T has a 30-day grace period on many promos and some deals pay via one-time reward cards instead of credits. Check the specific deal terms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What carriers qualify for AT&T switch deals?
AT&T accepts port-ins from carriers outside the AT&T family. Numbers from T-Mobile, Verizon, Metro by T-Mobile, and Boost Mobile all qualify. Cricket Wireless is part of the AT&T family, so Cricket numbers do not qualify for AT&T port-in promotions.
Do AT&T switch deals require a trade-in?
Some do, some don't. AT&T offers deals with no trade-in required, as well as enhanced deals where trading in any phone (even in poor condition) significantly increases the promotional value. Check each deal's terms for trade-in requirements.
What plans qualify for AT&T port-in deals?
Most AT&T switch promotions require activation on an Unlimited Premium or Unlimited Extra plan. Some deals may be available on lower-tier plans with reduced credit amounts. The store rep will confirm which plans qualify for the deal you want.
How long do AT&T bill credits last?
AT&T typically applies device promotional credits over 36 months. You receive equal monthly credits that offset your device installment payments. If you cancel, switch plans, or pay off the device early, remaining credits may stop.
Does AT&T offer switcher credits for early termination fees?
Yes. AT&T periodically offers up to $800 in bill credits to pay off your old carrier's early termination fee or remaining device balance. You'll need to port your number, activate on a qualifying plan, and submit your final bill from your previous carrier.
