what is roaming?

Roaming provides customers the ability to use their Cricket service throughout the US and Canada even when outside the unlimited coverage area included in your rate plan. There is an additional charge for roaming calls.

Cricket Wireless customers can use their Flex Bucket or pre-purchased roaming minutes to use Cricket service in roaming areas. Cricket PAYGo customers must use their account balance to pay for roaming minutes.

All customers should update their PRL by dialing *228 before entering a Roaming Coverage area.
