Summary |
Free2Go
is a traditional prepaid offering:
Purchase the phone, and add airtime as you need it. No contracts,
no monthly commitment. In exchange for that flexibility, you
pay a slightly higher per minute rate. |
GoPhone
is a hybrid offering:
Purchase the phone, and select a service plan, which is then
charged monthly whether you use the minutes or not. However,
there is no contract or credit check, and the rates are more
in line with a postpaid plan. |
