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.
Hello, I'd like to move the data, minutes, text, and remaining days FROM my line TO my line .
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.

Any chance I will get before that?
Additionally, checkout screen says "first amount billed", will that have to be paid at time of checkout?

Did you opt for installment billing?
So -
Activate 1st moto, keep number
wait 2 days
Activate 2nd moto, keep number
wait 2 days
transfer service back to original phone
should accomplish that, correct?

If you are actually wanting to use the phones, the Moto G Play 2024 is a much better phone. Moto G Play 24' 2-Pack [qvc.com] $99 - $30 = $69
QVC also has Moto G Stylus 4G 2-Pack [qvc.com] for $64.98 after $30 code, or BLU View 5 2 Pack [qvc.com] for $49.98 after code.
So -
Activate 1st moto, keep number
wait 2 days
Activate 2nd moto, keep number

After you activated 1st moto, text UNLOCK to 611611 (sometimes twice) to check the unlock date.

Just get em set up and that's about it
Would these be acceptable for trade in with spectrum?
Current personal tracfone line with 1 month unlimited $15 - > Transfer line and number to Moto G #1 -> wait 2 days -> Transfer line to Moto G #2 -> wait 2 days -> Transfer line back to original phone
Current personal tracfone line with 1 month unlimited $15 - > Transfer line and number to Moto G #1 -> wait 2 days -> Transfer line to Moto G #2 -> wait 2 days -> Transfer line back to original phone
Mixing TF $15 unlimited plan with this PAYG buckets may not have the results you wanted. TF may combine or list two separate buckets (one for current plan-unlimited and other plan-PAYG, each with different expiration dates.)
