About StandUp Wireless

Written by the company

About StandUp Wireless

Written by the company

StandUp Wireless is a national prepaid wireless service provider dedicated to connecting low-income individuals and families with reliable, affordable mobile phone service.
StandUp proudly participates in the Lifeline Program, a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) program, to make mobile service either free or significantly discounted for eligible households. StandUp also participated in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) and Emergency Broadband Benefit (EBB) when those programs were available
For more than a decade, StandUp Wireless has helped people stay connected to what matters most: loved ones, jobs, education, healthcare, and emergency services. Our work plays an important role in closing the digital divide by ensuring that individuals and families who might otherwise be left behind have access to essential mobile connectivity.
Our customers receive free talk, text, and data plans through the Lifeline program, along with simple, low-cost top-up options to add extra minutes or data whenever needed. Customers can bring their own phone or receive a SIM or eSIM, making it easy to start service without unnecessary barriers.
What sets us apart is our community-based approach. StandUp is one of the few remaining Lifeline providers still showing up, on the street, across the country allowing our valued customers to enroll in Lifeline and get service in whatever way is best for them, be it online with an eSIM, or in person. This allows us to reach underserved communities more effectively and offer personal, in-person support.
We operate with a strong commitment to compliance and transparency, meeting all federal and state regulations that govern the Lifeline program. Our team works hard to simplify the enrollment process, provide clear information, and ensure customers receive the service they qualify for.
Our Mission
To remove communication barriers by making mobile phone and internet access affordable and accessible to everyone who qualifies—because staying connected isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity.
What We Offer
-Free or discounted phone service through Lifeline
-Bring Your Own Device (BYOD)
-You choose between a physical SIM or eSIM
-Simple online or assisted in-person enrollment
-Reliable nationwide network coverage
-Affordable top-up plans for extra talk, text, and data
-24/7 Bilingual customer support
Our Core Values
Access:
Affordable service for every qualified customer
Integrity:
Ethical, transparent operations that follow all regulations

Received SIM Card today put it in phone…

Received SIM Card today put it in phone but it didn't work so I got another phone which was compatible could call and text but no data. When I called again there was no way to email me the APN so they text it to me but I could not understand what was to go where as it was jumbled together instead of separate readable lines nit along with having to flip flop back and forth from text messages to APN in order to set up APN very frustrating. Just email the instructions it's a lot easier. Jeez.
