Auto Pay Setup

Never miss a payment when you sign up for Auto Pay at Cricket. Just set up Auto Pay online or the myCricket App, and we'll automatically charge your credit or debit card for your monthly or multi-month plan service total, plus any features you added.

If you’re an individual customer on a $40/mo. or higher plan, you’re also eligible for a $5 Auto Pay credit at the end of each monthly billing cycle! You must be enrolled in Auto Pay to receive the credit. As long as you keep Auto Pay turned on, you'll get the credit every month. It's that simple!

Simply Data and multi-month plans are excluded. Auto Pay credit not available with Group Save discounts, multiline discounts, or select promotional offers.
