🥳 Happy New Year from all of us at HQ!
Nick here from the Content Team at US Mobile, back with another installment of our monthly newsletter (in blog form!). Ready for another great year? Us too.

🌺 Our 2026 Offsite
We’re just getting back from our annual company offsite. This year we were on Big Island, Hawaii, where we spent the week building new features, exploring the island, and getting closer as a team (we’ve added a lot new employees since last year!). We have a lot to share over the coming weeks, so keep an eye out!
💻 2026 Hackathon
We crowdsourced ideas from the year and got to work building 10 new features in a 2-day sprint on our offsite. Focusing all of our energy into a sprint like this at the beginning of the year is the perfect combination of team building and product scaling. We can’t share too much yet, but follow our Reddit to see what’s coming soon. 👀
💡 Inner Workings
Welcome to a new content series where I’ll be talking to my colleagues about what they’re working on. Get an inside look at our process from idea to execution.
When one of our Principal Product Managers saw how much friction there was for employees to submit their reimbursements on time (and for our Finance team to sort through), he decided to get to work. He went ahead and built an internal reimbursement app for all of our employees. Finance is thankful (and now we have even more time to focus on our product). See how he did it. 🔍
🤳 Our pilot Creator Program
We’re looking for standout creators.
Know someone (or are you someone) making great content? We want to talk! Take 30 seconds to fill out this quick form and apply to our new creator program.
If you know a creator who’s publishing on any major platform — YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X (Twitter), Twitch, Substack/newsletters, personal blogs, or anywhere else — we’d love an introduction.
They might be a friend, a colleague, a classmate, or just someone you follow whose work you think deserves attention. Whether they create videos, stream, write, review tech, teach skills, or build online communities, we want to meet them.
And if you are a creator yourself, we’d love to hear from you too.
If anyone comes to mind, take 30 seconds and send them the form below:

Please provide a plan like Minternet.
We’re working on it.
You folks have a great program! I’m paying 25% of what my last company charged with the same service and I couldn’t be happier! My wife also made the change.
Our son recommended you to us.
Hey hey, US mobile is great.
One thing though that’s been bothering me is the lack of integration between the US mobile app and the support chat. Why do I need to enter my phone number when already logged in? Also, why don’t I get a notification there’s a new chat message?
We’re working on moving to a new chat provider who will actually unlock that capability for us.
