Frequently asked questions about kids' mobile plans
What is the best mobile plan for kids?
For younger children (8–12 years), a small plan with 1–4 GB is usually enough — Fello's under-18 plan gives 8 GB for 110 kr/month. For teenagers who stream and scroll more, Fello's 20 GB for 140 kr/month is a strong pick with 5G included — and through our link you get an extra discounted month.
Is prepaid or subscription cheaper for kids?
A fixed-price subscription is almost always cheaper than prepaid if the child uses the phone regularly. Subscriptions also give better cost control — you know exactly what it costs each month with no surprise bills.
Does my child need 5G?
No, 5G is not essential for kids. Regular 4G handles YouTube, TikTok and games fine. If you want 5G anyway, Fello is a good pick since it's included from 110 kr/month on the under-18 plan at no extra cost.
Are there parental controls or data limits on mobile plans?
Most operators apply a hard data cap — when the allowance runs out, speed is throttled instead of charging extra. That means no surprise bills for parents. Content-level parental controls are best handled in phone settings (iOS Screen Time / Android Family Link).
What age is right for a first mobile plan?
Most families land around 9–11 years. The age matters less than whether the child understands the basics of safe phone use. Choose a no-contract plan so you can adjust as needs change.
Can kids have their own mobile plan?
Children under 18 in Sweden cannot sign up for a subscription themselves — you as guardian are the legal contract holder. The plan can still be used by the child in practice.
