About Kroger Wireless
Kroger Wireless is a United States mobile virtual network operator that provides domestic telecommunications services through the T-Mobile Network. Owned by Kroger, the service began as i-wireless, a Kroger Co. brand. It was trialed in 130 Kroger stores in 2006, then expanded by mid-2008 to more than 2,200 locations, including Dillons, Ralphs, Fred Meyer, and Fry’s Food and Drug stores. In May 2019, the company announced that its prepaid product brand would change from “i-wireless, a Kroger Co.” to “Kroger Wireless.” Its history also includes a loyalty offer: customers using a shopper’s loyalty card for qualifying in-store purchases could earn Wireless Rewards on select plans. The listed service type is virtual, and its country is the United States.
Who it suits
Kroger Wireless may suit US customers looking for domestic mobile telecommunications from a Kroger-owned virtual operator. Its history may also interest Kroger shoppers, though Wireless Rewards were offered only on select plans and qualifying purchases.
Verdict
Kroger Wireless is a US virtual operator owned by Kroger and operating via the T-Mobile Network. Its stated history includes a shopper-rewards offer on select plans, but no current plan details are listed here.
