How Net10 Wireless Prepaid Works

The Prepaid model that Net10 uses is the Cost per Minute structure. You purchase minutes and at the same time you will get a service period to use those minutes. Net10 is owned by Tracfone and operates nearly the same way with different rates and better phones.

You will start by buying a Phone and a Net10 Minute Card. You can only use a Net10 Cellular phone for Net10 service, you cannot use a Verizon, At&t, T-Mobile, Alltel, Net10 or any other phone with Net10 Service.

How to Activate your Net 10 Cellular Phone

You will Activate the phone by calling Net10 on a land line or by using the internet.

To activate your phone you will key in a series of numbers. It is really simple and if you hit the wrong key it is easy to redo it. For the system to activate your phone can take 10 minute to a couple of hours.

Adding a Net10 Card is even easier. You can add Net10 cards directly from the phone or from the Net10 website. You will add the 15 digit PIN code into your phone.

I have gotten a lot of extra minutes on my Net10s by using Bonus Codes. Net10 Bonus codes are a five digit number that will increase the number of minutes you get when you are adding a card to your Net10 phone or buying a new phone.. Check out the Net10 Bonus Codes.

How Net10 Service Time Works

The $20, $30, $45, $60 and $100 Net10 Cards all give you 30 days of service per $15 spent along with the 10 cent minutes. In order for your Net10 to work you need to have both Minutes and Service time on your phone. The remaining Net10 minutes always show on the display of your phone. The Service end date will also scroll onto your screen. It normally says “Add Airtime by 12/21/10 or service ends.” hwnet10wrks and then How Net10 Wireless Prepaid Works.

Net10 Service Time and Minutes Roll Over

If you add minutes or service time before your phone has completely run out both the minutes and service time will roll over. For instance if you have 20 minutes and 60 days left on your Net10 phone and you add a 300 minute/60 day phone card you will end up with 320 minutes and 80 days left.
