What is Google Fi and How Does it Work? Google Fi Plans, Cost, Billing

Fi plans are designed to fit your data usage. You can go unlimited or choose to pay only for the data you use—all without contracts or hidden fees. No matter which plan you choose, you get great coverage, privacy and security features that protect your personal information, and family features that help your family stay safer on their phones and build healthy digital habits.

You can make calls to other countries at little to no additional cost, and get international texting from the US included free. You’ll also get data, calls, and texts within the US, Canada, and Mexico included on all plans. On Flexible and Unlimited Plus, you’re covered with international data in 200+ destinations at no extra charge.

How much does a Google Fi plan cost and what’s included?

It depends on which plan you choose.

Simply Unlimited is our most affordable plan for unlimited data, calls, and texts, at $20/month per line for four or more lines. It also comes with unlimited texts from the US to other countries, unlimited data, calls, and texts within the US, Canada and Mexico, plus 5 GB of high-speed hotspot tethering at no extra charge.

Unlimited Plus comes packed with premium features. For $40/month per line for four or more lines, it comes with all the same features as Simply Unlimited, plus international calls to 50+ destinations, and international data abroad in 200+ destinations. You also get 100 GB of cloud storage with Google One, unlimited high-speed hotspot tethering, and can use your mobile data on tablets and other compatible devices with data-only SIM cards at no extra charge.

If you use less data or often rely on Wi-Fi, the Flexible plan can help you save. On the Flexible plan, you only pay by the GB for the data you use–down to the cent. It’s $17/month per line for four lines for unlimited calls and texts, plus $10/GB for data at home and abroad in 200+ destinations.

How much are monthly taxes going to cost?

Taxes and government surcharges vary by service address, but are normally between 10-20%. For example, if your monthly bill is $40, the taxes on your statement could be between $4-8.

When will I be billed?

On Simply Unlimited and Unlimited Plus, you’ll be billed at the start of your billing cycle. Any additional charges not included in your plan (e.g. calls made abroad and extra high-speed data) will be charged at the end of your billing cycle.

On Flexible, you’ll be charged a monthly fee for unlimited calls and texts at the beginning of your billing cycle (i.e. $20 for one individual, $15 for each person after that). You’ll be charged for data usage at $10/GB and for any additional charges (e.g. calls made abroad and extra high-speed data) at the end of your billing cycle.

When you get your first bill, you’ll only be billed for the people who are already active on your plan. People who activate later will be prorated on the following bill.
