How to Create a Family Plan on Mint Mobile (with Pictures)

Here’s our simple, 7-step walkthrough on how to create your Mint Mobile family plan

Written by Stetson Doggett

Update (October 2026): With Mint Family, Unlimited is now $30/mo for your first line and $20/mo for each added line, so 4 lines are $90/mo. AutoRenew is required to get that price. Here's everything you need to know about Mint Family pricing.

If you're new to Mint, you can build your Mint Family while you shop. Just choose how many lines you need on Mint's Mint Family page and add each line to your cart. The steps below are for adding lines that are already active on Mint.

Creating your Mint Family is a simple 7 step process. All you’ll need is your phone, the Mint Mobile application, and the phone you’d like to add to your account. Here’s how it’s done:

  1. Open the Mint Mobile application. Tap the “Account” tab on the bottom right, and then tap “My Mint Family”
  2. Tap “Create”
  3. Invite a family member by giving their line a nickname, entering their Mint phone number, and tapping “Send Invite”
  4. A 6 digit security code will be generated to share with your family member. Save this code for later
  5. Your family member will receive a notification on the home page of the Mint Mobile app. Tap “View Invitation” and then tap “Accept Invitation”
  6. Enter the 6-digit security code
  7. You’re done! Your Mint Family is created. Repeat this process as needed to add lines to your account.
