Pay monthly contract for Samsung phones

A pay monthly contract means you pay a fixed price each month, for a set period of time (usually 12, 24 or 36 months).

Your monthly cost will cover the cost of a new handset and an allowance of texts, calls and mobile internet data. This deal will normally be found through a mobile provider like Vodafone, Three or O2.

There might be an upfront payment before your contract starts to help pay off the cost of the handset.

After your contract term ends, your provider might offer you the chance to upgrade to a newer mobile phone. However, it’s always worth comparing mobile phone deals to see what other providers are offering, just in case you can get a better deal elsewhere.

To start a contract, you’ll need to pass a credit check as the mobile phone isn’t technically yours until it’s fully paid off at the end of your contract.

SIM-only deals

A sim-only tariff provides an allowance of calls, texts and data, for a monthly fee.

The difference between SIM-only and a contract is that you don’t get a handset with a SIM-only plan, which is useful if you want to keep your current Samsung phone.

Pay as you go for Samsung handsets

If you want more flexibility, or you don’t use your mobile much, you might want to consider a pay as you go (PAYG) tariff.

On PAYG, to use your calls, texts and data, you simply pay money to top your phone up with credit. When the credit runs out, you can top it up again as needed.

Just so you know, you can't get PAYG deals through GoCompare right now. But if you want to find out more about pay as you go, we have a handy guide to help you.

Top tips for cheaper Samsung mobile phone deals

It won’t surprise you to know that we recommend comparing different mobile phone tariffs, to see what option suits you best, and which provider has the most suitable plan for your budget.

Before choosing a new deal:

• Make sure you fully understand the deal you’ve chosen
• Don’t be fooled into buying something you don’t need. If you only use 10GB of data each month then why pay for an unlimited data plan?
• Don’t always go for the most expensive handset - look at cheaper alternatives such as keeping your old handset and opting for a SIM-only deal
