If you’re in the market for a new phone, now’s the time to upgrade. Fall is when most next-gen models are released, which means that there are some massive launch discounts that can help you put one in your pocket for less. Verizon is currently offering some incredible deals on the new iPhone 17 series and Google Pixel 10 lineup, as well as the latest Samsung phones, which could save you up to $1,200.
The savings don’t stop there, either. You can also save each month with discounted subscriptions and special plan offers for teachers, nurses and others. To help you make the most of these deals, we’ve rounded up all the best Verizon offers available right now, below. Verizon offers deals year-round, but the details change frequently. We’ll keep this page updated with the latest bargains, so be sure to check back whenever you’re looking to upgrade or switch from another carrier.
Best Verizon phone deals
Verizon routinely offers substantial savings on phones, but it’s important to note that the majority of these discounts are applied as credits over 36 months. This means you’ll need to remain a Verizon customer for at least three years to pay off your phone. You’ll be responsible for any remaining charges if you cancel before that period ends.
Apple’s new iPhone 17 lineup is here, and Verizon is offering you a chance to grab any model for less right now. Both an eligible trade-in and a new line on a qualifying unlimited plan will save you up to $1,100. That scores you the basic iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro or iPhone Air for free, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max for around $3 per month. You can also get the basic iPhone 17 for free when you switch your existing number over from another carrier.

Adding a new line on an Unlimited Plus or Ultimate plan will knock up to $1,100 off the basic Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, S25 Edge and S25 FE, which means you can grab any model for free right now.
If you’re after the Galaxy S25 Ultra, you’ll save $832 with a new line, dropping the price down to $13 per month. You can also save up to $1,000 on any model with both a new line and a trade-in.

Google’s cutting-edge Pixel 10 phones hit shelves just last month, and you can take advantage of some serious launch discounts right now at Verizon. Just adding a new line on a qualifying unlimited plan scores you the basic Pixel 10, 10 Pro or 10 Pro XL for free. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is also available for preorder (releasing on Oct. 9) and you can save up to $1,000 with both a new line and a trade-in, which drops the price down to around $22 per month.
Though the new iPhone 17 models are now available, the iPhone 16E is still the most affordable option out there. It lists for just $600, and you can get your hands on one for free when adding a new line on an Unlimited Plus or Ultimate plan at Verizon. Discounts will be applied as bill credits over 36 months.
Best Verizon plan deals
If you’re looking to switch to Verizon, there are a few deals on various plans that may make you lean toward one or the other. Promotions on plans are less common these days, though oftentimes you can get some free extras, such as free streaming service and music subscriptions, with enrollment in some of the higher-end 5G plans.
There are a few things to note on Verizon’s plans. First, Verizon often limits these perks to one per account, so only one person on a family plan needs to be on an Unlimited Plan to get the Disney bundle (Disney Plus, ESPN Plus and Hulu). Other people on the plan can be on cheaper plans like 5G Start — though it is worth mentioning that Verizon limits access to its fastest 5G networks (what it calls 5G Ultra Wideband) to its pricier unlimited plans.
Your company may also offer a corporate discount on plans, but you will need to check to see if that applies to personal accounts. Those who have Fios can check if a corporate discount is available at Verizon’s Deals at Work site.
Are you a teacher, or is someone on your family plan a teacher? You could save on your wireless bill. Verizon offers a teacher discount of up to $25 off per month depending on how many lines you have.
Verizon uses ID.me to verify eligibility, with the discount appearing on your bill in “one to two billing cycles.” You only need to have one teacher on your plan to get the discount to apply for all lines.
Verizon’s deal for nurses is identical to the teachers’ deal mentioned above, with up to a $25 discount each month on wireless plans.
You’ll need to verify your employment through ID.me, with the discount appearing in “one to two billing cycles.” Only one nurse needs to be on your account for all lines to get the savings, though you can’t combine the nurse discount with the teacher offer.
Military, first responders, volunteers
Verizon offers a discount to active-duty military, veterans and first responders. Like with the nurse and teacher deals, you only need one person on your plan to meet these qualifications to be eligible for up to $25 off, which will vary depending on how many lines you have.
Verizon is using ID.me to verify eligibility, with the military offer available to both active-duty service members and veterans. The first responder deal is open to “firefighters, police, EMS workers, retirees, volunteers and immediate family of those fallen in the line of duty.”
Verizon’s student discount is actually pretty good. You need to be an “actively enrolled student (including online enrollment) in a US secondary educational institution of higher learning, including undergraduate, graduate and/or vocational school or institution.”
If you fit that description, you can get four years of discounts; one line gets $10 off each month, and two lines get $25 off. The discount is available on many current plans, including the Unlimited Welcome plan.
Verizon verifies enrollment through UNIDAYS and caps the discount at two lines per account. The provider also requires annual enrollment verification.
Discounts for people age 55 or above
Verizon has a discount for customers aged 55 or above, though you will need to be in Florida to get it. If you do, you can get unlimited talk, text and 5G data for $45 a month on one line or $80 a month for two lines. Like the student deal, this is capped at a max of two lines per account.
One of Verizon’s most unique offers is that customers on eligible unlimited plans can add a variety of services and subscriptions for a flat rate of just $10 per month. That includes memberships, subscriptions and benefits like Walmart Plus, Disney Plus bundles, a 100GB hotspot and much more. At just $10 per month, signing up through Verizon could save you as much as $30 per month compared to signing up independently.

Like the rest of the wireless industry, Verizon has offers available for both new and existing customers. While there are some additional perks and discounts for switchers, many of the deals are under the same terms.
It’s easy to see hundreds of dollars off the price of something and get excited, but make sure you know what you’re signing up for. Verizon applies these discounts as bill credits that are usually spread across a 36-month period. Sometimes part of the discount is given in the form of a prepaid gift card (for a trade-in) and the rest is done as bill credits, but that’s specified when it’s happening.
If you don’t stick with Verizon through the full 36 months of bill credits, you’ll be responsible for all remaining charges. Before canceling or transferring your service to another carrier, be sure to understand what you’ll owe to make sure you can cover those charges before making a move.
