Google Fi Pixel 9 Pro + Pixel Watch 3 Promo – Full Breakdown (With and Without Financing)
---
WHAT'S INCLUDED:
Pixel 9 Pro
$300 off instantly
Remaining $699 credited back over 24 months
Pixel Watch 3
$100 off via promo code (after phone ships)
Remaining $349 credited back over 24 months
Total Monthly Credits:
$29.12 (Pixel 9 Pro) + $14.54 (Watch 3) = $43.66/month
---
GOOGLE FI PLAN:
Unlimited Essentials Plan: $35/month
You must keep the line active and in good standing for 24 months to get all credits
---
OPTION A – PAY UPFRONT (NO HARD CREDIT PULL)
At Checkout:
Pay $699 for Pixel 9 Pro (after $300 discount)
Pay $349 for Pixel Watch 3 (after $100 discount)
Pay sales tax upfront on both
No financing, so NO hard credit check
Each Month (for 24 months):
Plan: $35
Credit: $43.66
Result: Your plan is fully covered and you get ~$8.66 extra per month, which can be used toward taxes or other fees (but doesn't roll over or get refunded)
Best for: People avoiding a credit check and okay paying upfront
---
OPTION B – FINANCE THE DEVICES (HARD CREDIT PULL REQUIRED)
At Checkout:
Pay $0 for the devices (except taxes)
Finance Pixel 9 Pro ($29.12/mo)
Finance Pixel Watch 3 ($14.54/mo)
This triggers a HARD credit pull
Each Month (for 24 months):
Plan: $35
Devices: $43.66
Credit: $43.66
Result: You still just pay $35/month total — credits cancel out the device payments
Best for: People who prefer monthly payments and don't mind a hard inquiry
---
AFTER 24 MONTHS:
You own both devices
Bill credits stop
You continue paying for the Google Fi plan ($35/mo unless changed)
Any leftover credit in a month does not carry over or get refunded
---
TL;DR:
You can avoid a hard credit pull only if you pay for BOTH the phone and watch upfront
You'll still get $43.66/month in credits, which more than covers the $35/mo plan
Any extra credit each month can only be used that month, no rollovers or payouts
Financing either device = hard pull

If you consider a single line from visible/usm/metro for $25/month it comes to $600 just for service. $432 is the total cost you pay for the phone+watch.
Plus is you get lte for watch too.
I'm not sure if this is a right deal. I am currently planning to switch to US mobile darkstar promo which is even cheaper at $19/month.

I'm planning on heading over to mint based on the experience. I don't know how good their CSRs are, but they have to be better than what I dealt with. I'm even considering moving to an iphone from android after being on android for over a decade because it all soured me on google so badly
I don't need or want the watch. What's the resale value on it? $150? So the P9P ends up being about $400-450 out of pocket, but you're locked into a contract for 2 years.
This is probably a much better deal for people who are fine paying $30+ per month for cell service, and who would find value in an expensive smart watch. Feel free to TD my post for not slobbering all over this deal, I'm just doing the math for other people like me.
After 120 days the SIM/service can be moved to another phone and this phone can be used with your other number with unlimited data. After switching to another phone after 120 days, the credits will continue to post for up to 24 months. At which point you can cancel the Fi number.
Not sure if it's a slick deal, but it's a good enough deal for a new phone if you need one before tariffs kick in.
