It takes some configuring, but I've had good experiences with using Google Family to manage my kids devices.
1. Go to the web to find the current minutes, messages, data, and days remaining on your permanent phone.
2. Activate your "donor" phone on the same account.
3. Go to the web to find the current minutes, messages, data, and days remaining on your new, donor phone.
4. Go to support.tracfone.com and scroll down to and click "Chat with Support".
5. Populate the message template below with details of your donor phone and permanent phone and share with the CSR.

currently has ### minutes, ### messages, #.# GB data, ### days left which I'd like added to my line which currently has ### minutes, #### messages, #.# GB data, ## days left.
My account email address is:
The end result should be minutes, messages, GB data, days left.

I did this process with Orbic flip phones last year or year before. Currently have service into 2032.
It took a while (months actually) to actually get all of the lines to consolidate together, but the process did work eventually. Just remember to wait at least a day between activating new line.
If just doing it twice that should be sufficient. When I did a whole bunch of them sometimes I had to wait a month or 2.
