TextNow 101: Perks

TextNow offers a lot of its services for free, from unlimited talk & text (both on Wi-Fi and nationwide), to essential data for apps like email, maps, and rideshare on a 5G network. And if you didn't know how it's free, it's quite simple – TextNow passes the cost of phone service to advertisers, not the customers.

This means that while using the app for calling & texting, you will see some personalized ads, but it also means that you will be offered discounts and deals from your favorite brands, also known as TextNow Perks.
