The FCC’s Affordable Connectivity Program, formerly called the Emergency Broadband Benefit program, is a government program that reduces an eligible household’s broadband internet service bill. Discounts are provided through bill credits, limited to one per household and the amount varies based on customer location and qualifying service.
We are not affiliated with the government or any government programs. We are a lead generation company that facilitates connecting consumers with the verification process and service providers so that they can receive discounted services if they qualify for them.

How to Get Free Government Internet Service
You can get your home internet service for free or at low cost when you apply for the FCC internet subsidy provided by the ACP program. You will get payment assistance from the government, but your internet plan will come from private internet providers. The ACP payment assistance for eligible households is $30/month. For eligible households on Tribal land, the FCC internet subsidy is $75/month.
To find out whether your ACP program internet would be free or low-cost, look up your participating internet provider’s plans here on CompareInternet.com. Many providers have first-tier internet plans with a low enough price that your internet will be free after your ACP benefit. Other ISPs start their plans around $50/month, so your cost would be only $20/month after your $30 ACP program benefits.
List of Internet Providers Participating in the ACP Program:
- AT&T
- Brightspeed
- CenturyLink
- Cox
- Earthlink
- Fidium Fiber
- Frontier
- HughesNet
- Lumos Fiber
- Metronet
- Optimum
- Quantum Fiber
- Spectrum
- Verizon
- Viasat
- Windstream
- Wow!
- Xfinity
- Ziply Fiber
How to Maximize the Benefits of the ACP
- Know your needs: You don’t want to pay for speed you don’t need. If you work or study from home, you may need faster internet with unlimited data or high data caps. If you mostly browse the web and use email, a slower plan with less data will work for you.
- Check your local options: Enter your zip code here at CompareInternet.com to see a detailed comparison of pricing and plans. You may get a better price from one ACP-participating provider than another.
- Track your internet usage: If your plan has data caps, be very careful not to exceed those caps, or you may face extra charges. Most providers will have an app or portal where you can check your current data usage.
What is the difference between the ACP and Lifeline programs?
The Lifeline program is much older than the ACP, having started in 1985. Lifeline was originally founded to provide phone service but can also now provide broadband assistance. The Lifeline benefit is $9.25/month payment assistance. To be eligible for Lifeline, households must be at or below 135% of the federal poverty level or qualify for certain other federal programs such as housing assistance or Medicaid.
The ACP program internet benefit provides $30/month for households at up to 200% of the poverty level, or with a household member who qualifies for certain other federal programs such as SNAP. Qualifying households on Tribal lands receive $75/month from this FCC internet subsidy. Eligible households also may receive $100 toward the purchase of a digital device through an ACP-participating provider.
