What is Topping-Up?
To activate your phone today, you're going to need to top-up. Since Cricket PAYGo is pay-as-you-go, "topping-up" means adding funds to your Cricket PAYGo account, so you can enjoy your service without interruptions (and without a monthly bill). When your balance gets low, top-up again to keep the conversations flowing. If you sign up for auto top-up today, you'll never have to worry about topping-up again.
How to Top-Up After Activation?
After you top-up and activate your Cricket PAYGo account, there are several ways you can top-up to enjoy uninterrupted service.
Auto Top-Up
Make it a no-brainer by enrolling today in auto top-up, which automatically adds funds to your account each month. Or if you decide later that you want to enroll, call Customer Service at 1-800-CRICKET.
Cards and PINs
You can buy top-up cards and PINs at many Cricket PAYGo locations. Top-up cards and PINs are available in values ranging from $10 to $65, depending on retailer and region. Find a store
On your Phone
You can also use *PAY (*729) to top-up with your credit or debit card.
In-Store
Some Cricket PAYGo locations don't have top-up cards or PINs. At these locations, you can add funds directly to your account without using a PIN. You can top-up your account with amounts as little as $1 and as much as $300. Depending on the Cricket PAYGo location, you can pay with cash, check, credit card, or debit card. Find a store
