Understanding MNOs vs MVNOs
MNO (Mobile Network Operator)
Major carriers that own and operate their own cellular network infrastructure, including cell towers, spectrum licenses, and core network equipment.
MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator)
Carriers that lease network access from MNOs to provide cellular service. MVNOs often offer competitive pricing and specialized plans while using the same network infrastructure as major carriers (MNOs).
Carrier FAQs
What is an MVNO?
An MVNO (mobile virtual network operator) sells mobile service without owning cellular infrastructure. MVNOs lease access to major carrier networks and deliver coverage using those host networks.
Why do some MVNOs use multiple networks?
MVNOs can partner with more than one host carrier to expand coverage or offer differentiated service across regions. Depending on the plan, you may be assigned a single host network, or your device may select the best available network when the MVNO supports multi-network switching.
