Discounts on gadgets and internet service

Households can now afford the internet and devices they require for work, education, healthcare, and other purposes thanks to the new federal FCC Program (FCC).


The FCC provides qualifying households with the following benefits:
  • ✔   Using participating internet providers, you can receive a monthly discount of up to $30 on high-speed internet service.

  • ✔   For those who live on eligible tribal lands, participating internet providers are offering discounts of up to $75 per month on high-speed internet service.

  • ✔   A one-time savings of up to $100 on a desktop, laptop, or tablet (with a co-payment of at least $10 but not more than $50).

Monthly internet service costs can often be eliminated by combining the FCC Program with low-cost internet offers from participating providers across California. If your household has a low income or takes part in specific assistance programs, you might be eligible. Per household, only one device and one monthly service discount are permitted.

A household: what is it?

Even though they are unrelated to one another, a household is a collection of people who live together and share finances.

The Disengaged / Disconnected

  • Unconnected Learners / Students

    Children who are without broadband or satellite internet and are between the ages of five and seventeen are referred to as "underconnected students." Even though they have an internet connection, students who only have dial-up or cellular data do not have one that is sufficient for online courses and/or online resources.

  • Households / Families Without Computers

    A household is considered to have no computer if it only has a smartphone or no computer of any kind. A smartphone does not meet the minimum requirements for online classes and/or online resources, despite the fact that it can connect to the internet. A standard laptop, desktop, or tablet can fulfill the minimal requirement.
