Ultra Mobile’s free device promotion is here—and it’s out of this world!
Last month we talked about the importance of device compatibility in this day and age. With T-Mobile’s ongoing spectrum upgrade rolling out across the nation, the ways in which we deliver cellular data and service are changing fast—and much of yesterday’s tech is falling too far behind to keep up. To help ensure that Ultra Mobile customers have an optimal service experience from the word go, we are proud to introduce our first ever free device promotion! We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to make sure that this giveaway is done right—the Ultra way—and we’re ready to flip the prepaid game on its side yet again.So let’s get started!
$29 plan will be eligible for a free Nuu Mobile A4L Ultra Mobile smartphone, a brand new Android device designed to take full advantage of the Ultra Mobile network.¹ We chose our most popular plans for eligibility because we wanted our first device giveaway ever to be accessible to as many people as possible and help those people with older devices make the most of T-Mobile's network upgrades! Beginning the first week of December, Retailers can acquire Nuu A4L stock for their storefronts via their epay Marketplace or VidaPay Marketplace. Simply log into your marketplace of choice under your Ultra Master Agent, filter for Ultra, and add devices to your cart to order while supplies last. Once you have devices in hand, you can begin distributing them to qualifying customers upon activation. Talk about making life Ultra!

GUATEMALA TRIVIA Guatemala has been inhabited by humans since at least 12,000 B.C. Today, over half of Guatemalans are descended from the indigenous Maya people. Guatemala’s geography is quite mountainous with many active volcanoes. Pacaya, the most active of these volcanoes, last erupted in 2015. Many important everyday objects and ideas originated in Guatemala, including blue denim, chocolate bars, instant coffee and even the number zero!

DID YOU KNOW?
DECEMBER 2017
International Calling & The Holiday Season The holiday season is back again, and for many of us that means family gatherings, hanging decorations and getting the shopping done. However, Ultra Mobile and our Retailers know it means something else that’s just as important—a surge in international calling activity. S e c o n d o n l y t o M o t h e r ’s D a y, t h e w i n t e r h o l i d a y
season is the most active for calling all year long. And it’s little wonder: with so many cultures celebrating Advent, Boxing Day, Victory Day (Bangladesh), Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Ōmisuka, New Year’s Eve, Independence Day (Haiti) and others within the same month, it’s easy to see that the holiday season is a truly worldwide event.
It’s also a very busy season, meaning that sometimes gifts can be forgotten or cards may not make it to the post office— but there’s always time for someone to pick up the phone and share seasonal greetings. Ultra Mobile is proud to partner with retailers like you in making these all-important connections possible all year round—and especially this time of year.
THANKS!
