About Straight Talk Wireless

Straight Talk Wireless was launched in 2009 as a joint venture between TracFone Wireless and Walmart, designed as a no-contract wireless brand sold exclusively in Walmart stores and on Walmart.com. Following Verizon's acquisition of TracFone in 2021 for approximately $6.9 billion, Straight Talk became part of Verizon's prepaid portfolio.

The brand primarily uses Verizon's network but can also utilize T-Mobile and AT&T towers depending on the device. Straight Talk has maintained its position as one of the largest prepaid wireless brands in the United States with its Walmart-exclusive retail partnership.
