Metro by T-Mobile plans list at $40 to $60 a month for one line, and that price already includes taxes and fees. Metro is T-Mobile’s own prepaid brand, known as MetroPCS until T-Mobile renamed it. Its plans page says service is “all on T-Mobile’s nationwide 5G network”.
Metro by T-Mobile plans and prices
Three plans made up the core of the page when we read it.
| Plan | One line | With AutoPay | Data |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unlimited 5G data, web exclusive | $40 | Not offered | Unlimited 5G. Slower after 35 GB in a month when the network is busy |
| Unlimited 5G data | $55 | $50 after the first month | Unlimited 5G, with 8 GB of hotspot |
| Unlimited Premium 5G data | $60 | $55 after the first month | Unlimited premium 5G, with 25 GB of hotspot and HD video |
Prices are from Metro’s phone plans page, read on October 8, 2026. Metro says taxes and fees are included and that these plans carry a five-year price guarantee.
Extra lines are cheaper. Metro’s own labels put the $55 plan at $85 for two lines, $115 for three and $125 for four.
The page also carried two offers that looked temporary: three months free when you pay for three on the $40 plan, and a bring-your-own-phone plan at $15 a month for three months, then $25 with AutoPay. Offers like these change often, so check the page before you count on one.
How Metro differs from T-Mobile
It uses the same network and waits behind T-Mobile’s own customers on it. Metro states it directly: “When network is busy, Metro speeds may be reduced vs. T-Mobile speeds due to prioritization.”
What you get in exchange is a price with the taxes already in it. T-Mobile’s own plans add a monthly fee per line on top. See T-Mobile plans for the comparison.
Does Metro support eSIM?
Yes. Metro’s eSIM page says, “Like a SIM card, an eSIM provides your connection to the Metro by T-Mobile network.”
Data settings
Metro does not publish APN settings. What we know is on our Metro by T-Mobile APN settings page.
