Check If You Can Keep Your Number

If you want to keep an existing phone number for your second line, enter the 10-digit phone number in the required field and click Check My Number. AT&T will check whether the number is eligible to be transferred to your new line.

If you're bringing your own compatible device, you may also be able to activate the additional line using an eSIM. With an eSIM-compatible phone, you may be able to activate AT&T service within minutes.

Consider AutoPay and Device Protection

Once you've purchased a new phone or added a second line, consider enrolling in AutoPay to help you save on your monthly bill.

You may also want to add device protection for a new phone. Depending on the protection plan and coverage, it may help reduce your out-of-pocket costs if your device is lost, stolen, or accidentally damaged.
