Sprint MVNO RingPlus has included a free plan for kids to its regular plan offerings. The new plan named My First Phone Free Plan is available for new activations only to customers who want to get a free service for their children. In addition, the carrier is offering a Memorial Day Sale that includes discounts on phones and add-ons. RingPlus Memorial Day Sale is good through May 31, 2016 at 6PM Pacific.

RingPlus My First Phone Free Plan

My First Phone Free Plan – for new activations; includes 200 minutes, 200 texts and 200 MB of LTE data. The plan doesn’t include overages. If kids run out of talk, text or MB of data, they will simply be left without until the next monthly cycle. However, if parents want them to have additional service, they can purchase the Kid-sized Add-Ons. Add-ons for kids do not renew automatically so parents are getting them only when needed. The plan requires $10 top up at sign up that will be used for paying for the Kid-sized add-ons and other services. Another $10 will be charged automatically only when or if ever balance reaches $0.

The Kid-Sized Add-Ons are 60% off regular overages rates. Customers can choose from:






$2.00 per month for 100 minutes

$2.00 per month for 100 texts

$2.00 per month for 100 MB

To RingPlus My First Phone Free Plan, customers can add MMS, too but at regular cost:

There are no social requirements for the RingPlus My First Phone Free Plan. This plan also comes with a bunch of parental controls as making a white list of people that a child can call and black list of people who cannot call a child, blocking text, MMS and/or data, reviewing your kid’s talk, text and/or data usage history and more.

Kids can also loan the phones. Eligible handsets are refurbished iPhone 4 ($60.00) and new Kyocera S2151 ($40.00). Shipping is included and there is no tax. If in good condition when loaner phone is returned, customers will get the deposit back.
