At a time when the entertainment and news worlds are being hit with fresh rounds of layoffs, Visible is marking a milestone that feels especially relevant. The prepaid carrier’s Connection Protection program has reached its third anniversary, covering three months of wireless service for eligible Visible members dealing with a layoff, reduced hours, or a stretch between jobs, and it also includes support from nonprofit partner Empower Work.
Built to make sure job loss does not also mean losing phone service, the three-year program comes at a time when thousands of people are experiencing layoffs from billion-dollar corporations. Recently, Sony said it would lay off hundreds of TV and movie studio employees, ESPN was preparing another round of cuts after losing about 40% of its subscribers over the last decade, and more than 650 employees were let go across ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC local operations.
Since launching in 2023, Visible says the first-of-its-kind program has delivered more than 30,000 codes and has been redeemed more than 16,900 times. Visible also says participant data shows the program eases stress, keeps people connected to employers, and helps them get back on their feet, as it was designed to do.
“There’s no playbook for this in the wireless industry because no one else has done it,” said David Kim, President of Verizon Value. “Visible built Connection Protection from scratch because we saw a gap between what carriers offer and what people actually need. Three years later, the demand continues to grow.”
Visible Launches More Ways to Save
Visible knows that wireless service is not just about streaming and scrolling anymore. The investment in the Connection Protection program helps people apply for jobs, answer calls, access healthcare, talk to family, and stay reachable during a rough patch. If life gets disrupted, Visible members know that their phone bill should not become another emergency.
Visible keeps things simple with three plans, but the differences come down to speed, perks, and premium data access. The base Visible plan is the budget option with unlimited data and hotspot, but speeds can slow during congestion, and video is capped at lower quality. Visible+ is the middle tier, adding premium data on Verizon’s faster 5G Ultra Wideband network, faster hotspot speeds (up to 10 Mbps), and international perks like roaming in Canada and Mexico. Visible+ Pro is the top-tier plan, built for heavier users, with unlimited premium data, the fastest hotspot speeds, 4K streaming, and extras like an included smartwatch service and expanded international calling.
Backed by Verizon’s network, Visible is offering major savings for anyone looking to trim a monthly bill without giving up a major-network connection. Switching to a simpler wireless setup, hotspot use, and a plan that is built to be managed in an app is easier than ever:
