Verizon Business Pricing 2026: One Base Plan and Everything You Bolt On

If you last looked at Verizon Business a year or two ago, you remember a ladder. Business Unlimited Start, Plus and Pro, and a decision that came down to how much hotspot data you thought you needed. Most of the pricing articles still on the internet describe Verizon that way. They are describing something that is no longer the front door.

As of today, the Verizon Business mobile plans page presents one base plan. It is called My Biz Plan, Verizon describes it on the page as “our base plan. Then add on the features and services you want,” and the site navigation lists My Biz Plan as the mobile plan entry. There is no tier to pick. There is a base rate, and then there is everything you bolt on to it.

That is a different way to shop for a line, and it creates a problem I want to be blunt about early rather than bury: because Verizon does not publish individual add-on prices on that page, the plan page cannot tell you what you will actually pay. I am not going to invent a total to fill that gap. I am going to show you what is published, what is not, and how to get a real number.

One disclosure first, because it belongs above the first link and not in small print at the bottom. The Verizon Business links in this article are monetised affiliate links and they pay E-Commerce Paradise a flat commission per sale. The Shopify, Bizee and Hiscox links further down are monetised affiliate links too. None of that changes what I write. If a VoIP number at a fraction of $65 a month is the better answer for what you actually need, which for a lot of store owners it is, I say so twice below.

What actually changed at Verizon Business

The structural change matters more than any single number. Under the old model you bought a package. You picked a tier, the tier came with a defined bundle of hotspot data and perks, and comparison was easy because the thing being compared was a fixed object.

Under the current model you buy a base and assemble the rest. Verizon’s own words on the plans page are “Pick the add-ons you want for each line on your plan and change them whenever you need.” The per line flexibility is real, and a store owner can configure a line for supplier calls differently from a line for a virtual assistant, which the old ladder did not allow without splitting accounts.

The cost of that flexibility is that the published price is now only the floor. If you need more than 5 GB of hotspot, that is an add-on. If you want coverage beyond Canada and Mexico, that is an add-on. Every one of those decisions moves your bill, and none of the amounts are printed on the page.

My Biz Plan is $65 per line, and that figure already assumes two things

Here is the headline number, straight off verizon.com/business/products/mobile/plans/ as of September 2026: My Biz Plan is $65 per line per month at one line, “Plus taxes, fees and Economic Adjustment Charge.”

Now the part that most articles skip. Directly alongside that $65, the same page states “$70 without Auto Pay and paper-free billing discount.” Read that carefully, because it inverts how the price is usually reported. The $65 is the discounted rate. The sticker rate is $70. The $5 difference is what Verizon gives back for letting them take the payment automatically and for turning off paper bills.

That distinction is not pedantry. Plenty of store owners deliberately pay vendors by invoice so everything is categorised properly at month end. If that is you and you do not put a card on file, your Verizon line is $70. You read the $65 headline and pay the $70 number, and you find out when the first bill lands.

It also changes carrier comparisons. Our own guide to the best business phone plans for small businesses now covers the My Biz Plan restructure in full, including both sides of the $65 and $70 split. On the question of whether Verizon is the most expensive of the big three, it answers not in any simple way, which is the right answer, because the carriers do not all publish on the same basis. Anywhere you see Verizon quoted at a single number, check which of the two rates it is before you compare anything against it.

What the $65 line actually includes

Verizon lists four things as included at that price. Here they are verbatim from the plan page, because paraphrasing inclusions is how errors creep into pricing articles:

• “Unlimited talk, text and 5G/4G LTE data”
• “5 GB of 5G/4G LTE mobile hotspot data”
• “Call Filter”
• “Canada and Mexico talk, text & data”

The page also notes the plan is “available with a month-to-month or device payment agreement.” Month to month means you are not locked in, which has real value for a store owner still working out whether a carrier line is the right shape of solution at all.

Look hard at that hotspot figure. Five gigabytes is a safety net, not a working setup. It covers a hotel outage or a long airport delay while you answer a supplier. It does not cover running a store from a van for a fortnight. If tethering is central to how you work, the hotspot add-on is not optional for you, and its price is not on the page.

Canada and Mexico included is the quietly useful one for this audience, because high ticket suppliers in furniture, outdoor equipment and appliances often have Canadian distribution arms. If you travel more widely than that, the international question is a different article and we cover it in our roundup of the best cell phone plans for international travel.

The $5, $15 and $20 figures are not add-on prices

This is the most misreported thing about the current Verizon Business page, and getting it wrong changes your maths by a lot. The plan page carries this line: “Qualify for special device discounts and promotions when you spend $5, $15 or $20 a month on add-ons.”

Those three numbers are spend thresholds. They are the amounts of monthly add-on spending that unlock progressively better device discounts. They are not the price of an add-on, they are not three add-on tiers, and they are not a menu. If you see an article presenting Verizon add-ons as costing $5, $15 or $20, that article has read a device promotion ladder as a price list.

What the thresholds do tell you is how Verizon designed the plan. It is built to reward stacking: the more you bolt on each month, the better the phone deal you qualify for. Recognise that for what it is, an incentive to spend more per line expressed as a discount on hardware. If you were buying phones through Verizon anyway, it is real money back. If you are bringing your own device, the thresholds are not an offer aimed at you.

What Verizon does not publish, and why it matters more than the headline rate

I checked the plans page with a real browser rather than trusting a cached summary, and I also tried the dedicated My Biz Plan URL, which returned no readable content. Here is what is genuinely absent, stated as absent rather than filled in with a plausible guess.

Individual add-on prices are not published. The page names the add-on model and gives you the $5, $15 and $20 device discount thresholds, but it does not give you a price list. What a hotspot upgrade costs, what an international add-on costs, what device protection costs, none of it is on the plan page. It appears in the configurator once you start building a line.

Multi-line pricing is not published. The page shows the one line rate and no per line rate at two, three, five or more lines. Under the old ladder those discounts were published in a grid and you could work out a four line bill in your head. If you are pricing a line for yourself and a line for a virtual assistant, the second line’s rate is not a number you can look up.

What the “Save 15%” banner applies to, and when it ends, is not published. More on that in a moment.

Put those three gaps together and you get the honest conclusion of this article. The plan page tells you the floor and nothing else. For a single line, own device, no add-ons, autopay on, you know the answer: $65 plus taxes and fees. For any other configuration, including the very common one of two lines, the page cannot tell you your bill. That is not a criticism of the price, it is a statement about what you can learn without opening the configurator.

The published figures, in one table

Here is everything Verizon publishes on that page in one place, with the gaps marked as gaps rather than estimated:

Item	Published figure
Base rate, 1 line, with Auto Pay and paper-free billing	$65 per line per month
Base rate, 1 line, without Auto Pay and paper-free billing	$70 per line per month
Taxes, fees and Economic Adjustment Charge	Additional, amount not published
Talk, text and 5G/4G LTE data	Unlimited
Mobile hotspot data included	5 GB of 5G/4G LTE
Call Filter	Included
Canada and Mexico talk, text and data	Included
Agreement type	Month to month or device payment agreement
Add-on spend thresholds for device discounts	$5, $15 or $20 a month on add-ons
Individual add-on prices	Not published on the plan page
Per line rate at 2 or more lines	Not published on the plan page
Scope and end date of the 15% banner offer	Not published on the plan page

The “Save 15%” banner, and why I am not turning it into a number

The plans page carries a banner reading “Save 15% off our My Biz Plan base rate,” with the note “Add-on prices additional.”

The temptation is obvious. Fifteen percent off $65 is a figure any calculator will produce, and putting it in a headline would get this article more clicks than the honest version. I am not doing it, for three reasons.

First, the page does not state which base rate the 15% applies to. Verizon publishes two, $65 with the autopay and paper-free discount and $70 without, and applying the same percentage to each gives two different answers.

Second, the page does not state whether the discount stacks with the autopay and paper-free discount or replaces it. Those are wildly different outcomes and the page is silent.

Third, the page does not state when the offer ends, and a promotional banner with no published end date is not something you can plan a business expense around.

The note “Add-on prices additional” is the tell, and it is the same story as everything else on this page. The discount is against the base only. Whatever you bolt on sits outside it, at prices you cannot see until you configure.

What the older Verizon answers hub still says

There is a second Verizon page, a business plan costs hub, that gets cited a lot in pricing roundups. I read it, and I want to be careful with it, because it is visibly stale. It carries offers stamped “Ends 5.30.24” and “Offer ends 6.30.24,” and it still names plans by the legacy Business Unlimited labels the current plans page has moved past. Treat anything from it as dated, and do not build arithmetic on it.

Two figures from it are worth knowing, clearly labelled as what they are. That hub says Verizon’s One Talk “starts at $15 per line,” useful context because it shows Verizon does sell a cheaper business phone system number that is not a full smartphone plan. It also says wireless business internet “Plans start at $69/mo.” Both come off a page carrying expired 2024 offers, so treat them as historical signals about the shape of the lineup and verify either in the configurator before budgeting against it.

That same hub still describes a discount for military owned small businesses by referencing a Business Unlimited plan. Verizon’s own content hub naming plans the main plans page has retired is the clearest evidence of how much stale Verizon pricing is floating around.

What a high ticket store owner is actually buying at $65 a line

Here is where most phone plan articles stop being useful to the person reading this site, so let me reframe the whole question.

If you run a high ticket dropshipping store, you did not go looking for a business phone plan because you wanted better coverage. You went looking because a supplier asked for one. Dealer applications for the brands worth carrying in furniture, saunas, outdoor kitchens and e-bikes ask for a business phone number as routine, sitting on the form next to your EIN and resale certificate. Our complete guide to finding high ticket suppliers walks through what those applications ask for.

So the real question is not whether $65 is a good phone rate. It is what a supplier hears when they call the number back. A dealer rep reaching a personal voicemail greeting recorded three years ago is a signal, and not the one you want while someone decides whether to open a wholesale account for you.

Judged on that job, a $65 Verizon line does several things well. It is a real business account with the carrier. It gives you a number separate from your personal one, which means you can answer it differently. And it comes with Verizon’s network, which is worth money if you take supplier calls where coverage is genuinely marginal.

What it does not do is make you sound more professional than a well configured VoIP number for a quarter of the cost. That is the honest comparison, and it is the reason the next section exists.

When $65 a line is the wrong answer

I will say this plainly, and yes, the link above pays me. If all you need is a professional number for supplier applications, one that rings on your phone, sends voicemail to your email and does not tie a personal line to your business, a VoIP number is very likely the better answer and costs a fraction of $65 a month.

That is not a knock on Verizon, it is a statement about the job. A carrier line is a mobile plan that happens to give you a business number. A VoIP number is a business number that happens to reach your mobile. If the business number is the entire reason you are shopping, you are buying a lot of mobile plan to get a piece of software.

The cases where the carrier line genuinely wins are narrower than the marketing suggests, but they are real. You want your primary working phone on a business account. You need coverage where a data dependent VoIP app will simply fail, which matters if you drive to trade shows and warehouses. You are buying phones and want the discounts those $5, $15 and $20 thresholds unlock. Or you want one vendor and one bill when something breaks.

If none of those describe you, spend the difference on inventory photography and move on. We go through the shared numbers, the VoIP options and the coverage cases in our companion piece on Verizon Business alternatives for store owners. The wider category comparison lives in our guide to the best plan for digital nomads and international travelers.

How to get a real number in about ten minutes

Since the plan page cannot give you a total, here is the short process that will.

Start with the line count you actually need. Most single operator stores need one. A virtual assistant handling supplier email usually does not need a carrier line at all, they need an extension on a shared number.

Decide the autopay question before you configure anything, because it is worth $5 a line every month and it is a bookkeeping decision rather than a phone decision. If your workflow can live with a card on file, you are at $65. If it cannot, budget $70 and stop reading $65 as your price.

Then open the configurator and add only the add-ons you would genuinely use, watching what each one does to the monthly figure. This is the only place those numbers exist.

Note where you land against the $5, $15 and $20 thresholds, but only if you are buying a device. Otherwise you would be spending money to unlock a discount on something you are not buying.

Finally, take the configurator total and run the same exercise at another carrier. We did exactly that in our head to head on Verizon Business versus T-Mobile Business, and the answer comes down to trading network quality against monthly cost based on where you physically work.

Running the business behind the store

A business phone number is one line item on a longer list, and suppliers ask for it because it sits alongside other signals that tell them you are a real company. Getting those right is worth more than getting the phone plan perfect.

Start with what you are going to sell, because the niche decides everything downstream. Our breakdown of the best high ticket niches to build a store around is where I would send anyone still choosing.

If the model itself is new to you, read our explainer on what high ticket dropshipping actually is before you spend a cent on a phone line, because the economics of selling few expensive items are not the economics most dropshipping advice assumes.

Then work on the supplier side, which is where the phone number earns its keep. Our step by step guide to landing high ticket suppliers covers what a dealer application asks for and how to answer it so the account gets approved.

And get the legal entity in place, because the phone number on the application is far less important than the company behind it. Our walkthrough of business formation for a high ticket dropshipping store explains what suppliers are actually checking.

On tooling, the stack I keep coming back to is deliberately small. Build the storefront on Shopify. If the entity is not formed yet, Bizee handles the filing without the hourly rate.

Once you are moving real money, general liability cover through Hiscox is the piece most store owners put off for a year longer than they should.

If you would rather not assemble any of this yourself, our done for you store build and launch service puts the whole thing together, suppliers included.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does Verizon Business cost per month in 2026?

My Biz Plan, now Verizon Business’s base wireless plan, is $65 per line per month at one line with Auto Pay and paper-free billing, or $70 without those discounts. Taxes, fees and the Economic Adjustment Charge are additional and not published. Add-ons are priced separately and those prices are not on the plan page.

Is Verizon Business still sold as Start, Plus and Pro tiers?

Not as the front door offer. The mobile plans page now presents My Biz Plan as the single base plan you add features to, and the site navigation lists it as the mobile plan entry. Any article describing Verizon Business as a three tier unlimited ladder is describing a legacy structure.

Do the $5, $15 and $20 figures on the Verizon page mean add-ons cost that much?

No, and this is the most common misreading. Those are spend thresholds. Verizon’s wording is that you “qualify for special device discounts and promotions when you spend $5, $15 or $20 a month on add-ons.” They describe how much add-on spending unlocks a better device deal, not what an add-on costs.

What does Verizon Business cost for two or more lines?

Not published. Verizon shows the one line rate of $65 with the autopay and paper-free discount and no per line rate at two, three, five or more lines on the page we could read. The only way to get a multi-line figure is to build the account in the configurator.

What is included in the $65 My Biz Plan rate?

Unlimited talk, text and 5G/4G LTE data, 5 GB of 5G/4G LTE mobile hotspot data, Call Filter, and Canada and Mexico talk, text and data. The plan is available with a month-to-month or device payment agreement.

How much is the “Save 15%” offer worth?

Unknown from the page. The banner reads “Save 15% off our My Biz Plan base rate” with the note “Add-on prices additional,” but the page does not state which of the two published base rates it applies to, whether it stacks with the autopay discount, or when it ends. Computing a discounted figure from it would be guesswork.

Do I need a carrier line to get a business number for supplier applications?

No. If the only job is a professional number for dealer applications that separates work from personal, a VoIP number costs a fraction of $65 a month and does it well. A carrier line makes sense when you want your working phone on a business account, when you need coverage where a data dependent app would fail, or when you are buying devices.

Is the $65 rate available without a contract?

The plan page states My Biz Plan is “available with a month-to-month or device payment agreement,” so month to month is offered. A device payment agreement is the alternative if you are financing hardware through Verizon.

The short version

Verizon Business is no longer a tier you pick. It is one base plan at $65 per line per month with Auto Pay and paper-free billing, $70 without, and everything else is an add-on at a price Verizon does not print. The $5, $15 and $20 figures are device discount thresholds. Multi-line rates are not published either, and neither is the scope or end date of the 15% banner.

So the plan page tells you the floor and nothing more. If you want a number you can budget against, you have to build the line. And before you do, be honest about whether the job you are hiring this for, sounding like a real company when a supplier calls back, requires a carrier plan at all.
