Add Minutes and Data to your line
Top up anytime. Add-ons apply to your line after checkout.
Quick answer
How do I add minutes and data to my FreeCall Wireless line?
Choose the package you need (data, talk and text, a combination or international calling), enter your FreeCall Wireless number and complete checkout. Add minutes and data top-ups are paid add-ons applied to your line after payment and are not part of the Lifeline benefit.

- Talk and text
- International
How top-ups work
- Check your current balance in My Account
- Choose a data, talk and text, combination or international package
- Pay securely at checkout
- Your add-on is applied to your line after payment
Top-ups are paid add-ons. They are not part of the Lifeline government benefit and do not affect your eligibility.
Do I need to add minutes and data with Lifeline?
No. Lifeline service includes unlimited talk and unlimited text each month at $0. If you use all of your monthly high-speed data before your plan renews, you can add minutes and data to stay at full speed.
How do I check my balance?
Sign in to My Account or call (918) 931-0991. Your balance shows remaining high-speed data and any add-ons.
What if a top-up does not appear on my line?
Restart your phone. If the add-on still does not show, call (918) 931-0991 and we will check it. See Returns & Refunds for our refund terms.
Which top-up should I choose?
| If you… | Choose |
|---|---|
| Run out of data before your plan renews | A data package |
| Make lots of calls on a prepaid plan | A talk and text package |
| Need both data and minutes | A combination package |
| Call family in another country | An international add-on |
Is my payment secure?
Checkout uses an encrypted connection, and we never store full card numbers on this website. You receive a receipt by email and in My Account. If an add-on does not appear on your line within an hour of payment, restart your phone and contact us.
Do unused top-ups roll over?
Each package lists how long it is valid before you buy. Data and minutes from an add-on are used before they expire and do not change your Lifeline plan, which renews on its own schedule.
Can I add minutes and data for a family member?
Yes. Enter their FreeCall Wireless number at checkout. The add-on goes to that line only, and the receipt comes to you. Make sure you have the account holder's permission before topping up a line that is not yours.
Frequently asked questions
Does topping up affect my Lifeline benefit?
No. Top-ups are separate paid add-ons.
When does a top-up start working?
Right after payment is confirmed and the add-on is applied to your line.
Can I top up someone else's line?
Yes, if you have the FreeCall Wireless number and the account holder's permission.
