Sprint Intros New Wireless Business Plans

Sprint is rolling out new wireless plans for business customers that the company says gives them the ability to pool data among devices without the worry of variable pricing with shared data plans.

Dubbed Sprint Business Fusion Plans, they start at $15 with a qualifying smartphone purchase. They include unlimited talk and text and Sprint Direct Connect. Customers can choose unlimited data while on the Sprint network for $30 or the ability to pool data among users with 2GB for $20 or 1GB for $15.

As an incentive to sign up, smartphone data plans include double the data allotment for a limited time. Customers also get the choice of adding devices to the pool of data, including tablets, mobile broadband cards, mobile hotspots, routers and machine-to-machine (M2M) devices. Plans for basic phones are available as well.

Businesses can buy their devices through the Sprint Easy Pay program and pay in 24 monthly installments. When purchasing a smartphone or basic phone with Sprint Easy Pay, customers will receive a monthly discount on the unlimited talk and text portion of their plan. They also have the option to activate an existing Sprint device or pay full retail price.
