Boost Mobile An Overview
In 2002 Boost Mobile officially launched in the USA in a partnership with Nextel Communications. The company offered walkie talkie 2 way radio like functionality with its push to talk service over Nextel’s iDEN network. Subscribers paid a dollar a day for for the service to get unlimited talk and text.
In 2006 Sprint purchased Nextel Communications and hence the Boost Mobile brand. Almost immediately the company began offering service on Sprint’s CDMA network in select markets, while still maintaining its push to talk service in many markets. It wasn’t until 2013 that Sprint and Boost Mobile fully retired Boost’s iDEN network in favor of Sprint’s CDMA network.
Today, Boost Mobile is Sprint’s main prepaid wireless brand.
Where To Buy Boost Mobile Service Plans And SIM Cards
Plans and phones can be purchased online through the Boost Mobile website, through Boost Mobile retail locations and through various retailers across the country such as Walmart, Amazon, and Best Buy. Often times the best rates on Boost Mobile service come from Walmart. For example, Walmart sells Boost Mobile’s $35 plan with twice as much data than it would come with from Boost Mobile directly.Supported Phones And BYOD Devices
To obtain service with Boost Mobile, potential subscribers may need to purchase a new phone as Boost Mobile offers extremely limited support for BYOD. Those that hope to bring their own phone to the network will first have to check Boost Mobile’s list of supported BYOD devices to see if its allowed.

Fine Print/Sources
Shame to see Boost Mobile dropping its rewards program although the major changes in it that happened in February made it a lot less rewarding. Maybe they will team up with CellNUVO or another company to offer a decent rewards program replacement.
There are tons of rewards programs on the market. You can go to your app store and find them. They don’t have to be used exclusively with a carrier or MVNO either. Swagbucks is one such example.
Boost Mobile is not an MVNO and, contrary to popular belief, never has been. Boost Mobile is owned, operated and maintained by Sprint, which makes Boost Mobile a subsidiary of Sprint. MVNO companies do not own the infrastructure (towers, switches, etc) of the wireless network but instead purchase voice and data services from primary networks at a fraction of the cost paid by subscribers. The MVNO then brands and markets their company by selling these services to their own subscribers. Boost Mobile, as a subsidiary, does not operate this way since they are owned and operated by the parent network.
Thanks Shane. I am well aware of that. Same goes for Virgin Mobile and Sprint, MetroPCS and T-Mobile, Cricket and AT&T, and Visible and Verizon. However, for structural purposes of the website, this is how they best fit into it for the time being. Having the aforementioned brands listed in the MVNO List page also increases brand awareness and most importantly gives people a better chance of finding the best plan at the best price for their needs. That is really what BestMVNO is all about.
