Purchasing a phone unlocked

RedPocket Mobile offers great deals on phones, whether they’re locked or unlocked. Each product listing clearly indicates if the device is unlocked.

Carrier-Unlocked Phones

When you purchase an unlocked phone from redpocket.com/shop, your device will arrive carrier unlocked and ready to use with any GSM carrier in the U.S.

Unlocked phones also work with all of RedPocket Mobile’s networks—including GSMA, GSMT, and CDMA—so you can switch your plan or network as your needs change.

Using a CDMA Carrier

Your unlocked phone is GSM-compatible. The major U.S. CDMA carrier, Verizon, now supports GSM technology. You can also get a CDMA SIM from RedPocket Mobile starting at $10/month. Visit redpocket.com/plans and select “CDMA” to use your unlocked device on this network.

Using Your Unlocked Phone Internationally

Unlocked phones can be used outside the U.S., as long as the carrier is compatible with your device. Depending on the network, voice, text, and data may all work—or sometimes only voice and text. Check your phone’s network bands and confirm compatibility with your chosen carrier.

Locking or Unlocking Your Phone

• Locking later: Unlocked devices cannot be locked after purchase to qualify for promotional offers. To take advantage of a promotion, select the offer when you place your order.

• Unlocking a locked phone: Please review our full unlock policy. Note that phones purchased on a rebate promotion that are unlocked may no longer qualify for advertised rebate amounts.

Promotions and Unlocked Phones

Phones purchased at full price without a plan cannot later apply for unlocked phone promotions. To receive promotional offers, select them during checkout.
