Tracfone Smartphone Monthly Plan Refill vs EcoMobile 5GB 30-Day Prepaid Plan

Buy the Tracfone refill if you already own a Tracfone phone or want data that never expires while your service stays active. Buy the EcoMobile plan if you want a flat 5GB of high-speed data, unlimited talk and text, and free calling to over 100 countries. Tracfone's carryover is its real edge, but its data buckets are smaller and its plans are tied to Tracfone handsets. EcoMobile gives more high-speed data per month and works with your own phone or an eSIM, though data drops to 2G after the 5GB runs out.

• Choose the Tracfone refill if you are on a Tracfone phone and want unused data, minutes and texts to roll over month after month.
• Choose the EcoMobile plan if you want 5GB of high-speed data, unlimited talk and text, and international calling on a phone you already own.
