How to add someone to your Â鶹ÊÓƵ plan
Adding another line to your current plan is quick and simple with My Â鶹ÊÓƵ.
Want to add a line to your plan? Luckily, the setup couldn’t be easier— all you need is access to the My Â鶹ÊÓƵ app or the My Â鶹ÊÓƵ online portal.Ìý
Here are the steps to adding a device to your existing account.
Pick or add your new device.
If you're the Account Manager or Account Owner on your plan, you can complete this step in the My Â鶹ÊÓƵ app or portal.
You can add a new device and a new line to your account on the page in My Â鶹ÊÓƵ:
Select the device you'd like to purchase.
Choose a pricing option for your device.
Select a device protection option.
Follow the prompts to select a plan, features and services, and accessories to complete your order.
Assign a new phone number to the device or opt to transfer an existing number from another carrier. Note, if you’re adding a tablet, smartwatch, or another connected device, you can skip this step.
