About ConnectEdge


ConnectEdge is a unique telecommunications and connectivity program created by LeanStream Wireless in partnership with T-Mobile. The Program is focused on enhancing access to affordable, reliable internet and cellular phone services for LeanStream’s partner organizations and their stakeholders.

The ConnectEdge phone plans provide subscribers with unlimited talk, text, data, and 11GBs of hotspot service. Oh, and the phones are free of charge with no long-term contracts!

The ConnectEdge Wifi on the Go provides subscribers with a portable HotSpot device and unlimited nationwide wireless internet.

Equipment typically arrives within 3-5 business days. Your subscription payments will process automatically each month.
