kind of, multi step process, step 5 is what you want but you need to do steps 1 to 4 first or it does not work.

1) the device is preloaded with this plan and it can not be transferred (unless you do those future steps
2) even though the device is preloaded it is not activated, you have to activate it via the red card and calling a number or doing the online chat
3) during the activation if you are already a tracphone customer you can stack it with existing tracfone service
3b) or get a new phone number
3c) or transfer your existing phone number via a competitor like mint mobile, the big three (at&t, verizon, t-mobile), or another MVNO
4) once the device is activated your 1 year is counting down (or more than one year if you are a rollover customer with existing tracfone service like previous deals. For example my tracfone services goes until feb 2027 for I have bought previous deals, each new phone had 1 year of service plus data so somehow I got from 2025 to 2026 to 2027 via buying like 3 plus phones over the years for me and my family members, unlocking them and giving them to relatives post the 60 days unlock window)


5) if you want to use this tracfone service with a different phone, you need to buy a $1 to $5 sim at walmart, target, family dollar, dollar general etc other places. This type of sim is called "Tracfone Bring Your Own Phone SIM Kit, No Airtime - Prepaid". You put this sim card in your google pixel phone (or other phone) and then follow the red card which is going to do steps 1 to 4 with your new phone, this in turn transfers your service from the motorola phone to your pixel phone. In theory your motorola should be unlocked in 60 days since it was activated and it just needs to talk to the tracfone / motorola servers. Newer phones use unlock servers similar to iphones for several years now. Some 2023 and earlier android phones do not automatically unlock via wifi after activation with step 4, you had to have service still on the device and then use a tracfone email portal to request an unlock code you enter manually via the number pad.

Any questions ?

Samsung A15 5G has better screen (Super AMOLED FullHD vs LCD HD), faster charging speed (25W vs 18W), longer support (4 years of Android update and 5 years of security update vs only 1 Android update and 3 years of security update)

Moto G 5G 2024 has smoother screen (120Hz vs 90Hz), stereo speaker, Snapdragon 4 gen 1 is slightly better than Dimensity 6100+ and Moto My UX is basically stock Android

Does anyone know whether you have to transfer a number to get the 24gb per month? I'm not clear on that part.

1. Either new number or port.
2. Read the details at beginning of thread, it's not per month - it's per year.

My mom has a different cheap Motorola phone w/Tracfone service that she bought from either QVC or HSN last year. Her service is about to expire so I was looking into getting her a 1-year refill at whatever is the cheapest price, since she almost never uses her phone. I saw 1-year plans w/3 GB data on eBay for $79.99, so it makes sense to get this deal, because it's the same price but she would get a new phone. How would she go about activating this phone and keep her original service line & phone number?
cheapest option is Moto G Play 2023 $34.88 at walmart with 1 year 1500/1500/1.5GB unused data doesn't expire if you add plan before it expires. When activate you just click Keep Number to extend current.

I did read the description, but had it been worded "2gb per month with carryover" I would have understood it. Now I'm going to go cancel the order.

It looks as if that deal at Walmart is completely sold out. Happen to know of any other similar deals to that one? I'm looking to refill the 1 year plan on my grandparents phone. They have been using an iphone with the Tracfone plan and we'd like to extend the 1 year. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Again, always check HSN and QVC for deals if you need cheap service. Activate cheap new phone keeping number, then later reactivate iphone - again keeping number so plan moves back to iphone.

Believe these QVC/HSN deals include a sim card that is tied to the bundle phone. So they need to be activated with the included phone to activate the 12 months of service

So activate the phone from the bundle online and select 'keep current number' this will transfer your current line to the bundle phone + combine your current balance with the 12 months included in the bundle. Then your previous phone should show up as 'deactivated' in your online account. Select reactivate and the same 'keep current number' process and you should be able to move the new extended service back to your original phone.

As was just said - No - do not swap sims, always use original sim in a Tracfone - phone & sim are registered together.
New phone has it's own sim which will activate the new plan when phone is activated.

All these low end phones have slow chipsets. If you find the A15 sluggish, the Moto G probably won't be much of an improvement for general use. For my specific use-case, Snapdragon w/Adreno GPU is better than MediaTek w/Mali GPU (PS2 Dirge of Cerberus FF7 is 3-5 fps on D6100+ and 30+ fps on SD480). Hence, I wish I'd gotten this Moto G with Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 instead of the A15.
I own both. The G5 is FAR superior in performance to the A15. It's not even close. The only things the A15 has over the Moto G is the display and length of software updates.

When this year of unlimited talk/text is over, do I still keep the balance of minutes/texts I have right now?

Not sure if anyone will see this or know and I don't dare ask customer service. Recently got a QVC deal, activated one phone by transfer then just swapped the SIM back to the original flip phone. Phone stopped working right so I contacted customer service who did something to the account and the phone works now. The weird part is that my account shows 0 mins / 0 txt / 0 data, but we have no problems with calls, texts or data usage. When I activated via transfer my account showed the right numbers but since the swap then fix by customer service it works but shows 0.


Has anyone ever seen this? Did I get a free year of Unlimited?
