- Helium Mobile is launching a new Zero Plan that costs nothing for 3GB of data, 300 texts, and 100 minutes of calling.
- A Cloud Points program lets you share your location, answer surveys, and more to earn gift card rewards.
- The Zero Plan is by invitation or referral only for now, though there are two other paid plans you can choose if you don’t want to wait.
Back in 2022, Helium Mobile arrived with a fairly unique premise, as it promised to embrace decentralized wireless communication. Essentially, this means Helium operates through a combination of data sharing via community-owned hotspots and T-Mobile’s network for when you’re not near a hotspot. The service has evolved a bit since its early roots, and now it’s expanding further with the introduction of a completely free plan.
The Zero Plan offers 3GB of data, 300 texts, and 100 minutes of phone calls for absolutely nothing. There are no hidden fees or monthly bills here. Additionally, Helium will offer a Cloud Points program that rewards users who participate in activities like location sharing, referrals, and surveys. These points can then be redeemed for gift cards and more.
