America’s most flexible and customer-friendly carrier just got better. We’re incredibly excited to announce our partnership with Affirm – the easiest to use “buy now, pay later” platform. In true US Mobile fashion, you can expect a clean checkout experience that enables you to spread out payments over time for your devices. Whether you’re looking for the latest flagship device or something simple to meet your needs, we’ve got a great selection of phones on our shop.
Why use Affirm?
Affirm is a San Francisco-based company that helps shoppers smartly pay for purchases over time. You can sign up for a free Affirm account to manage your installment plans for multiple purchases all in one place! Here are some of our favorite features Affirm integration brings to your shopping experience.
- Pay off your purchase in 4 easy, interest-free payments
- Customize a long term payment plan with competitive interest rates
- Manage your US Mobile purchases and other online shopping from your Affirm account
- Checking your eligibility does not impact your credit score

Integrating the option to pay for devices over time places us even further ahead of our competition in the telecom industry. Typically, financing a device through a carrier involves deceptive pricing, 2-3 year contracts, dealing with salespeople, and discovering unexpected fees. Now on US Mobile, you’re free to choose exactly what you pay, and for how long.
3 reasons to upgrade your phone
Access to 5G
If your current phone isn’t compatible with 5G, you’re seriously missing out on incredibly fast speeds. Your wireless plan may already come with access to 5G connectivity for no additional cost, so it’s worth considering making the switch to take advantage of top-tier wireless speed.
The future is now; 5G is revolutionizing the way we connect, from professional sports to the music industry. If you’re salivating over US Mobile’s >3GB/s Warp Speed 5G, there’s no better time to swap out your clunker phone for a 5G-equipped powerhouse.
Improve your privacy
When new smartphones release on an annual basis, oftentimes we pay most attention to striking design, improved cameras, and exciting gimmicks, leaving important privacy updates to the wayside. Those new phones that come out every year include built-in security updates or offer compatibility with operating systems that have enhanced security. The amount of data stored on your smartphone is growing every day, so keeping a new and well-protected device can help prevent theft of your personal info.
Your phone might not work in the near future
You may have heard about the 2G/3G sunset that will render upwards of 80 million devices obsolete. If your device isn’t 4G LTE or 5G compatible, it’s in your best interest to switch to a newer device soon. We get it – new phones can be pricey, and the closure of 2G/3G infrastructure is a frustrating situation. With our new Affirm partnership, you can pay for a new phone in small increments while staying on the nation’s best networks.
