T-Mobile owns Mint Mobile
T-Mobile has completed its acquisition of Mint Mobile, the carrier partially owned by Ryan Reynolds. In an update on Wednesday, T-Mobile says Mint Mobile will continue to offer its $15 per month / 5GB of data plan (that requires paying for three months upfront), while also offering access to some of T-Mobile’s perks rolling out now and “over the next few months.”
The acquisition also includes Ka’ena Corporation, the parent company of Mint Mobile, along with the two other companies under its umbrella: the prepaid brand Ultra Mobile and the wholesale wireless provider Plum. Both Mint Mobile and Ultra Mobile customers will get T-Mobile’s scam call screening service as part of the merger.
Additionally, Mint and Ultra customers will get free Canada roaming, which includes unlimited talk and text as well as 3GB of data. Ultra customers will also gain access to an enhanced data roaming option while in Mexico.
T-Mobile announced its plans to acquire Mint Mobile for up to $1.35 billion last March, and the Federal Communications Commission finally approved the deal last month. Mint founders David Glickman and Rizwan Kassim are joining the T-Mobile team to help lead the brands, while Reynolds will continue to serve as Mint’s ambassador. The deal gives T-Mobile a chance to dip back into the prepaid phone market, an opportunity it lost after it sold Boost Mobile.
