Auto Pay Service Credit Program

The Auto Pay Service Credit Program is subject to the Auto Pay Service Credit Program Terms and Conditions.

The Auto Pay Service Credit program ("Program") is available on any phone service Cricket rate plan starting at $40 and above, after your account is enrolled in Auto Pay. The Program is also available on select grandfathered Cricket plans enrolled in Auto Pay. Simply Data plans are not eligible for the Auto Pay credit.

Program account credits are $5.00 and are issued to your Cricket account approximately three (3) days before each billing renewal date. To receive a Program account credit you must be enrolled in Auto Pay on a qualifying plan at the time account credits are issued. Once enrolled in Auto Pay you must remain enrolled in Auto Pay to participate in the Program. You will not receive a Program account credit if Auto Pay is removed from your account at any time during any billing cycle.

Your Cricket account must be in good standing to participate in the Program. This means that suspended accounts and cancelled accounts are not eligible for Program account credits or any other Program benefits.

The Program is not available on Group Save multiline accounts and may not be combined with any other offer or rate plan discount.  Data only plans are not eligible to participate in the Program.

Account credits are not redeemable for cash or any cash equivalent and are not transferable or refundable. Account credits are forfeited if your account is cancelled.
