Cricket Expands Alternate Payment OptionsWe’re also working hard to give our customers flexible and secure payment options. Cricket is the first no-annual contract wireless provider to offer customers three well-known alternative payment methods—Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay—in all company-branded retail locations and service apps. Customers can now use these alternative payment methods on the myCricket app and all Cricket-branded retail locations nationwide.

• Apple Pay is free for all users of Apple devices and Apple Watch. Payments can be made by holding the device near the in-store card reader or a single-touch purchase online on the MyCricket app.
• Google Pay gives customers the power to make in-app and tap-to-pay purchases using any Android phone, tablet or watch.
• Samsung Pay is included with high-end and mid-range Samsung phones and allows customers to make payments using their Samsung smartphone.

Our goal is to continue innovating our purchase experience and delivering a high level of both security and service to our customers. Apple Pay, Samsung Pay and Google Pay use token encryption to ensure maximum security. ***

Cricket just took home the top spot in the J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Wireless Purchase Experience Non-Contract Performance StudySM—Volume 2, marking its third win in a row.
