Use an iPhone 4 and 4S with Tracfone service

First, here is some back story on the iPhone coming to Tracfone:

We recently (a few months back now) got a tip from a visitor that Tracfone may be accepting iPhone 4 and 4S for use with their Bring Your Own Phone program which already allows users to bring CDMA smartphones to use with Tracfone service.

If you visit the following l ink, it appears that the iPhone 4 and 4S will work with Tracfone service:

We have since received significant feedback confirming that both the iPhone 4 and 4S (Verizon) will work with Tracfones Bring Your Own Phone program. See the comments below for more information.

So, it is possible to use an iPhone, like this CDMA iPhone 4 on Amazon with Tracfone service. J ust remember that it must be a used CDMA iPhone that is setup for use on Verizon,.

Many Tracfone users are already reporting that phones like the Motorola Droid 3,  or HTC Incredible (but maybe not the Moto G (Verizon)) are working with Tracfones BYOP program, so it is exciting that they will be expanding the phone options to Apple products.

Just remember that for now, phones need to be Used Verizon CDMA to work with Tracfone.

We have now confirmed that iPhone 4 and 4S (Verizon) will work with Tracfone. If you are wondering where to find a phone, Amazon has a number of used iPhones for under $100!

How to Add Your iPhone 4 or 4S to Tracfone BYOP

Here is a simple guide for those interested in using an iPhone 4 or 4S with Tracfone, but are unsure of which phone to get, and how to navigate the process.

1. You will need to find a used Verizon iPhone 4 or 4S. Here are som e links to places where you can get a used phone:

iPhone 4 8GB (black) used from Amazon

iPhone 4S 16GB (black) used from Amazon and also in White

iPhone 4S on eBay (Verizon)

Take a look at the options and find the best phone or price for you. The iPhone 4S is a little newer than the 4, comes with Siri and a few other upgrades, but is also a bit more expensive.

2. You should look into Verizon service in your area (before you buy the phone) and determine if it will work for you. If you already have a CDMA phone that works, you should be fine.

You can also use the MEID from the iPhone with your zip-code to check if it will work (but this isnt always possible if youre buying it online). To do this, go to Tracfones BYOP page and enter the information.

3. Once you determine that a Verizon iPhone will work in your area (or are at least willing to give it a shot!), go to Tracfone.com and follow the instructions for activating a new phone. You can also do this over the phone by calling Customer Service. You will need to purchas e a $10 network activation card.

Some people have reported a seamless transition to their new iPhone while others have faced a run around for some reason. The quirks of Tracfones BYOP program are still being worked out, so some patience may be necessary.

To track your minutes and service days, you can download the Tracfone app, or simply visit the Tracfone website and sign into your account.
