1. Save up to $550 on a new Galaxy Note 20
One of Verizon’s signature promotions is the classic upgrade and save, which is often applied to some of the hottest new smartphones on the market. The Samsung Galaxy Note 20 is one of the latest devices to become available on this scheme, saving you up to $550 when you trade a device back to Big Red.
On this and any of the buy and save promotions, you can grab different discounts depending on whether you’re already with Verizon or not. If you’re already on the network, you’ll only get a total of $400 off, and you’ll have to upgrade to unlimited service while you’re at it.
Hit the button below to find the deal, or read on to find out how you can save on the Note 20 without having to shell out the full stack of cash.
2. Buy one, get a free Google Pixel 5 with trade-in
The hotly anticipated Google Pixel 5 is now available on Verizon. Better yet, you can get it for free when you switch to the network and buy two Pixel 5s.
The retail value of the Pixel 5 is $699.99, but you can save most of that straight away with a popular BOGO deal. Of course, you need a new line of unlimited and a monthly payment plan before you can take full advantage of these savings. You can also save lesser amounts when you activate a tablet or dip into other discount plans.
Hit the button below for more details.
3. Buy one, get one with the iPhone 11 and iPhone 12 range
If you’ve been itching to grab one of the latest iPhones, Verizon is making the deal even sweeter right now. Big Red is offering a second Apple device for free when you buy the iPhone 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, iPhone 12, or 12 Pro with a new line on the Above, Beyond, Do, Play, or Get Unlimited plans. The only catch is that you’ll have to trade in your current device if you want the full value.

The exact amount you can save depends on the model you want and whether you’re switching, but all four iPhones have various trade-in and other promotions available right now. If you trade in your phone and switch to the network then your total savings can be up to $800, making the latest iPhone effectively free.
Hit the button below to find out more about these deals.
4. Grab your next phone for free
How does a free Google Pixel 4a sound? There are several great phones that are free right now from Verizon as long as you add a new line of service on a qualifying unlimited plan. You’ll pay for the device upfront, but you’ll receive bill credits for the full value of it over 24 months.
The Pixel 4a is the most notable example, but the deal also applies to a few other devices such as the iPhone SE, Moto G Power, and the Galaxy A11. Hit the button below to see the full array.
5. Get the Google Pixel 4a 5G for $10 per month, and promotional prices
While not quite free like the phones above, there are Verizon deals on several devices right now which means that they’re as low as $5 per month, rather than the higher prices they usually carry.
The most notable of the savings are on the Pixel 4a 5G. It’s down from $24 to $10 per month right now.

Another option in this bracket is the Samsung Galaxy A51. It offers one of the best experiences on Android in a well-designed chassis, for one-third the price of modern flagships. This deal gets you it for free over the life of your 24-month contract.
The Galaxy A21, the LG Stylo 6, and the Moto G Stylus are also all available at a cut-rate right now. The button below takes you to the full selection.
6. Get up to $550 off top Android phones when you switch
On many more flagship smartphones that haven’t already featured in this Verizon deals list, you can trade your old device and save as much as $550. If you’re already a Verizon subscriber then you can upgrade with a trade-in and get up to $400 back instead.
How much you can save depends on whether you’re switching or upgrading, the device you’re trading in, and the phone that you want, so there’s an array of different iterations. Your best bet is to head to Verizon and select your ideal phone to see what offers are currently available.
7. Military, teachers, nurses, and first responder discounts
In an age where teachers, nurses, and other first responders are asked to work like never before, Verizon is giving back. The carrier offers a variety of perks and discounts for those who serve — from unlimited plans for $30 per month to hiring veterans, it’s an impactful way to say thank you. The plan discounts are valid on four-line plans, so your entire family can save.
It’s easy to sign up — simply verify your eligibility and enroll with your basic information. If you’re a service member looking for employment, you and your spouse can join the Verizon Talent Network and stay informed with the latest job postings.
8. College discounts — save up to $25 on unlimited
There’s a good chance that your spring semester is taking place at least partly online, and that means you’ll need reliable data. While some schools plan to conduct in-person classes, others are making the move to online learning. Whatever the situation, Verizon has college students covered. Right now, you can save $10 per month with a single line of unlimited service or $25 on a pair of lines. All you have to do is verify your student status with UNiDAYS and then Verizon will hook you up.
The offer is good for online students as well, and you don’t have to add a new line of service. However, the offer is only good for a maximum of four years so super-seniors be warned.
9. Get up to $450 in Verizon eGift Cards when you switch
Verizon is jam-packed with great deals if you want a new device, but what if you’re happy with the one you’ve got? Well, you can get $450 money back in the form of a gift card just for bringing your current device to the network and activating an unlimited plan.
Unlike most deals, you’ll have to add a promo code at the rebate center to get your eGift Card. Claiming the card requires a promo code, which you’ll be provided with when you sign up. For a limited time, the reward also comes with a Verizon Stream TV for free.
10. Get up to one year of PlayStation Plus and PlayStation Now for free
This holiday season is proving to be the year of the video game, and now Verizon is getting in on the action. Right now, you can get up to one year of free PlayStation service when you grab a new phone with monthly installments. You’ll have to choose the Play More, Do More, or Get More plan to get the perk though. Xbox users are unfortunately out of luck, as there’s no alternative offer in place.
If you still need to get your hands on a PlayStation 5 this year, good luck. Here’s our handy buyer’s guide to help you start searching.
