How Fliggs Mobile Plans Work
Fliggs Mobile describes itself as a “new generation of wireless carrier,” built on Web3 technology and powered by Moflix. Its mobile app includes a built-in, non-custodial crypto wallet, giving users full control over their private keys. The wallet supports cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and decentralized identities. Identity verification is conducted through the app by scanning an ID card, such as a driver’s license, followed by uploading a selfie.
Fliggs Mobile provides cashback in cryptocurrency, awarding 5% Bitcoin cashback on monthly plan fees and 10% when additional lines are added. These rewards are automatically deposited into your Fliggs wallet. Cashback rewards can be received as Wrapped Bitcoin, USDC (U.S. Digital Dollar), or HBAR (Hedera).
Service payments are accepted via Visa and MasterCard only. However, accumulated cryptocurrency rewards in your Fliggs Mobile Wallet can be used as credits toward your service bills.
Fliggs Mobile offers five phone plans, with some pricing anomalies that make some plans with less data cost more than some plans with more data:
- 1GB – $20/month
- 3GB – $19.95/month
- 12GB – $45/month
- 36GB – $39.95/month
- 36GB – $59.95/month, includes roaming in 215+ countries with 3GB data, 180 minutes and 180 SMS
There are no multi-line discounts other than the fact you get 10% in cashback crypto rewards vs the 5% you get for single lines.
All plans include unlimited talk and text. Taxes and fees are additional, and each plan includes mobile hotspot usage. Video streaming resolution isn’t explicitly stated but appears to be capped at 480p, based on their terms and conditions. Fliggs Mobile utilizes the T-Mobile network but likely does not include priority data access.
To sign up for service, users must download the Fliggs Mobile app (available for iOS and Android) and complete the registration process. Currently, only eSIM-compatible devices are supported, as physical SIM cards aren’t available yet, although the company plans to offer them in the future.
