Cellular data is used when performing certain actions or activities on your device.

How does data work?

Cellular data is used when performing certain actions or activities on your device. This includes browsing the internet, checking email, downloading applications, streaming music, watching movies, and accessing social media apps like Facebook and Instagram.

Everything you do on your phone, that uses the internet, will come from your data plan unless you are connected to a WiFi network.

RedPocket mobile plans include unlimited talk and text, with a select amount of cellular data. Plans have a specific amount of high-speed data and after that is used, speeds will be slower.

For Essentials and Plus plans, throttle speeds are up to 512kbps, depending on plan and network congestion.

For the Premium Plan, throttle speeds are up to 150Mbps (4G speeds) on GSMA and up to 1Mbps on CDMA and GSMT. Most mobile users notice virtually no difference between 4G and 5G speeds when using their device, making the GSMA Premium plan perfect for power data-users.
