- Visible just updated their $40 unlimited plan
with three new features.
In my opinion, solidifying it
as one of the best value unlimited plans on the market.
In this video, I'll be covering everything you need to know
about Visible's new plan changes,
as well as how you can get their $40 unlimited plan
for as low as just $5 per month.
Hi, I'm Stetson, and I review cell phone plans.
My goal is to help you save money on your cell phone bill
and I even designed and built BestPhonePlans.net
to help make it easy to find and compare plans.
Visible has been one of my favorite providers
for over the past year,
because their $40 unlimited plan uses the Verizon network
for coverage, and it's one of the best value plans
out there.
And today, Visible is adding three new features
to their plan that make it even better.
So let's jump into it.
The first feature Visible is adding
is unlimited calling to Canada and Mexico.
On their website, you can see calling to Canada and Mexico
is included, and if we click learn more,
you can see that the countries actually include
Canada, Mexico, the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
So you can now stay in touch with more people
than ever before.
The second feature Visible is adding
is unlimited members in Party Pay groups.
If we go back to their homepage here and scroll down,
you can see one plan, two ways to save.
The first way is with Visible Party Pay.
For those of you who may be unfamiliar,
Party Pay is Visible's group discount.
It allows you to add up to four members to a single party,
to enjoy group savings, bringing the cost of Visible's plan
down to as low as $25 per month.
Now, what was great about Party Pay
is that each account was handled separately.
It was totally safe to join parties
with random people you met online.
In fact, there is a dedicated sub-Reddit
helping people find enjoying parties
so they can enjoy the maximum savings on their Visible plan.
However, the problem with this system
is that if a member left the party
in the middle of the month,
there was no notification to their other members
and their bill would actually increase
as they had fewer people.
Today, Visible is fixing this.
On their site, you can see parties have no limits
on participants, so invite away.
And in fact, I'm solving this problem for all of you.
I recently created my own Visible account
to do a tutorial on how to activate Visible via eSIM,
get subscribed to stay tuned for that.
And as a result, I have an active Visible line
and I created my own party.
It's called bestphoneplans.
You can join by either going to the Visible application,
going to your account settings, finding Party Pay,
and typing in bestphoneplans to join the party.
I'll be accepting everyone,
so please feel free to send an invite
or you can follow the link in the video description.
Either way, the plan is to create a party
with literally hundreds of members.
So anyone could leave at any one time.
And as long as we have over four people,
which should be super easy, the bill will stay the same
and you'll get locked in to that $25 per month price point.
Except, that brings us to feature number three.
You can get the service for as low as $5 per month.
Yes, I know it's crazy, here's how it works.
Visible re-introduced their Visible referral system.
If you refer a friend, meaning they activate
with your unique Visible referral code,
you get one month of service for just $5.
And don't worry, you're actually still eligible.
Even if you're in a Visible party.
And the crazy part here is Visible says
you can bank your referrals.
You can stack up to 12 referrals or have 12 of your friends
or family sign up,
and you will keep those referral credits,
meaning you'll pay $5 per month for an entire year.
This is an absolutely phenomenal deal,
and it's clearly Visible's customer acquisition strategy.
Get people to join the network, get them in parties,
so they get locked into that $25 per month price point,
and incentivize existing Visible customers
to refer their friends.
There are a couple of things to note
about this referral system.
Scrolling down and we can see that new referrals
must activate service.
That makes sense.
You get one credit per referral
for the $5 discounted month of service.
The max number of credits you can accrue is 12 credits
at a time.
So my understanding of this
is you can refer as many people as you want.
But you can only bank up to 12 referral credits at a time.
Then on your next month of service,
where one of those credits is used
and you pay the $5 per month,
the next person you refer will bring your referral bank back
from 11 credits back up to 12 credits.
I think this is a great system
and Visible lets you easily track your referrals
in the Visible application
with these 12 bars that you see here.
The Visible app is also where you can find your unique code
that you want to give to your friends and family,
that they use during the sign-up and activation process
either when they're ordering a SIM card on the website,
or when they're activating via eSIM
in the Visible application.
You're welcome to use my referral code,
and I would certainly appreciate it,
as I would love to pay just $5 a month for unlimited data
on the Verizon network, but there's no obligation to.
And in fact, if you're an existing Visible customer,
please feel free to share your referral code
in the comment section down below,
and anyone watching this,
feel free to check the comment section
and just leave a comment on the code comment,
letting people know you used it.
And I don't know, maybe try and find people
who have fewer comments.
Try and balance out the system
or you can use my code, whatever works for you.
The one weird thing with Visible's new referral system
is that the person you are referring,
your friend or family member,
doesn't actually get a benefit from using your code.
You the referrer, are the only person
who sees a discount applied to their plan.
I'm hoping this does change in the future.
Right now Visible is offering new customers 37.5%
off their first month of service.
So you pay just 25 bucks instead of 40 bucks.
But this does seem like a temporary promotion.
And I certainly hope that Visible
lets you use the referral system
to offer that sort of discount to your friends and family,
so they actually have a reason to use your referral code.
So those are the three big new changes to Visible's plan.
The new international features, the Party Pay groups
with no limits on the number of participants,
and the new referral system.
There are two other features that are relatively new
that you may have missed.
Number one, Visible now supports eSIM on iPhone.
This means iPhone users with a compatible device,
can download the Visible application
and get activated on service using just their eSIM.
This literally takes just a few minutes,
and in fact, I'm going to have a full video tutorial
on this soon.
So get subscribed to stay tuned for that.
And number two, Visible now officially supports 5G.
You get 5G access on Verizon's nationwide 5G network,
and their ultra-wideband 5G network.
Although on ultra-wideband,
Visible speeds are limited to 200 megabits per second.
So there you go, that does it for this video.
