Description
Verizon Simplicity gives you unlimited priority data on Verizon's network. New customers can get it for $30 a month for one line, before taxes and fees, when they bring their number. That's a great price for service directly from Verizon.
You get 500GB of high-speed data, then speeds slow to 4Mbps. It includes 10GB of high-speed hotspot data, then unlimited hotspot use at 1Mbps. It also includes free international texting, plus unlimited talk, text, and 2GB of high-speed data in Canada and Mexico.
The $30 price is what makes it a good value. At the regular price of $45 a month, it isn't worth it. Video streams at 720p. Taxes and fees are extra, there's a $3.78 monthly carrier fee, and it requires a credit check.
Best for: new Verizon customers who want unlimited priority data straight from Verizon at a low price.

Verizon bundles some of its most popular perks together at a lower price. I've rounded up all six bundles below with the price, what's in each one, and how much Verizon says you save.
Verizon perk bundles at a glance
- For Movie and Show Lovers: $25/mo (was $41.97, you save $16.97). Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+ (With Ads) plus Netflix & HBO Max (With Ads).
- For Families on Apple: $20/mo (was $31.98, you save $11.98). Apple Music Family plus Verizon Family Plus.
- For Families on Android: $20/mo (was $30.98, you save $10.98). YouTube Premium plus Verizon Family Plus.
- For the Essentials: $20/mo (was $73.99, you save $53.99). Unlimited Mobile Hotspot plus Unlimited Cloud Storage.
- For Fans: $25/mo (was $47.98, you save $22.98). Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+ (With Ads), YouTube Premium and 4K Premium Video Streaming.
- For Pros: $30/mo (was $74.99, you save $44.99), with $10/mo off for 6 months right now, so $20/mo to start. Google AI Pro, 100GB Mobile Hotspot and Second Number.
The "was" price is the regular value Verizon shows for those services. Some of these perks already cost less through Verizon on their own, so check the linked perk pages before you pick: for example, the Disney bundle and Netflix & HBO Max perks are $12 and $13/mo separately, the same $25 as the bundle. Prices are per line, per month, plus taxes and fees.
Which bundle is the best deal?
If you stream, the Movie and Show Lovers bundle is the one I'd look at first. It gets you Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ for $25/mo total. If you need hotspot data, For the Essentials saves the most money of any bundle.
Who can get them
Verizon lists these bundles for its Simplicity plan. If you're on a myPlan Unlimited plan (Unlimited Welcome, Plus or Ultimate), you can still add the individual perks linked above, usually for $10 to $15/mo each. Verizon changes perk and bundle pricing from time to time, so check the price in My Verizon before you add one.
Works with any Verizon plan.
