What Is Refer-A-Friend

Simply put, Cricket Wireless will compensate you with up to $250 a year in account credits for referring friends to its services. These credits can be used to help pay your monthly bill.

How It Works

  1. You can refer up to 10 friends per year for a credit of $25 per friend if they switch to Cricket Wireless. Also, this is not a one-and-done kind of plan. You can refer 10 different friends each year to get the referral credits.
  2. Friends can be anyone you know, whether they're close friends, coworkers, the cashier at your local grocery store, or friends you mainly know through social media.
  3. Friends you refer will also receive $25 for signing up with your referral code.

Redeeming the Code

  1. Log into your Cricket Wireless account to get your unique referral code.
  2. Share your referral link. You can share it in person, through text, email, or on social media.
  3. Your friend clicks the referral link and is given their own referral code to use when activating their new account.
  4. The code has to be redeemed within 30 days of activating the account.
  5. You can keep track of all referrals you've made by logging into your account.
  6. Once the referred account has been active for 60 days, you and your friend will receive $25 account credits. This means you both have benefited from the refer-a-friend program.
  7. Remember, you can refer up to 10 friends per year. This way as you make new friends, you can point them to the refer-a-friend program where you both get rewarded.
  8. Cricket Wireless employees and affiliates are excluded from the Refer-A-Friend program, but the program is available to the public at large.

Take advantage of the Refer-A-Friend program through Cricket Wireless and see credits add up on your account that will help lower your overall wireless bill. For more information, contact Cricket Wireless customer service here.
