Glad I did. $300 is better than $100 and I can still port out in a few months. No contracts on the Kickstarter plan. They automatically waived the activation fee by doing it online as well, but after looking at my confirmation email it says there will be a one-time credit of $30 within 3 invoices however that plays out. My first bill will be charged 30 days from today.
I was concerned with the Amazon reviews saying they were sent 4 of the same SIMs, but it worked flawlessly. Over chat the rep told me which one to use. I also asked if I could double down on both the $300 and $100 Amazon SIM promotion, but was a no go. Worth a shot anyway.

So $9.73 total for 3 physical cards including the cost of a $900 money order.
When I click the reward link I get the option for Virtual or Physical card............If I opt for Virtual now, is the an option to still order the phsyical one after?
So, I chatted with Sprint CS and that is what the rep stated. "the account bill due on 7/17 has a total amount of $40.10. Please be advised that this due date was for your cycle that starts 05/24/2020-06/23/2020. The next due date for 8/17 will be for your bill cycle 06/24/2020-07/23/2020 this is the next bill cycle." Then I asked if I cancel today, will I be charged for bill cycle from 6/24-7/23, the rep indicated no. Is this correct?

Service Period..........................Bill Due Date
3/24/20 to 4/23/20.....................4/17/20
4/24/20 to 5/23/20.....................5/17/20
5/24/20 to 6/23/20.....................6/17/20
6/24/20 to 7/23/20.....................7/17/20
As of today 6/29/20, you're into the 4th service period and have paid only 3 bills. If the rep said you could cancel today and not have to pay the 4th bill, then you got free service from 6/24 to today. If you feel lucky and trust the rep, go ahead and cancel without paying the 4th bill.
If you had asked the rep "if I cancel today, will I be charged for service cycle (instead of bill cycle) from 6/24-7/23", the rep likely would have said "Yes".
Now what do I do with this "virtual" card?
The email said I could add it to my "mobile wallet" so I tried adding to my PayPal account and it was immediately rejected: "Your card has been declined. Please try a different payment method."
I'm guessing I can't just add it to my checking or savings account. There are a whole lot of limitations on what it can be used for and if I just use it directly to buy things I will (1) not have an easily accessible transaction register for later referral, and (2) of course forfeit my credit card's 1% bonus on purchases but I think that's a foregone conclusion anyway.
I saw people talking about the Venmo trick but I have never used Venmo and would rather not. I don't have a Samsung phone (no Samsung Pay).
Maybe Google Pay? Any ideas are appreciated. Thanks.

You will no longer be charge of this services due to your month in advance.
Sprint, like any other postpaid carrier bills month in advance. A month in advance is essential for continuous service with no interruption. Just like paying for rent, a month in advance is paid for the usage of all services. This, in turn, will be used when you make any changes on the account. If you make any changes, like changing a plan, add or remove services in the middle of the billing cycle, you will receive prorated credits based on the month in advance that you have placed. And when you cancel your account, you won't have to pay for the services on the last cycle at all as this will be covered by your month in advance.
