As a Boost Mobile customer, you may want to add other people to your account. This is not difficult. It just requires a few simple steps. Of course, you will need to determine if you want to add people who have phones that have already been activated or if you want to add new phones that haven't been activated and haven't yet been assigned a phone number. However, once you decide which category you fit into, its easy.

Primary Boost Line Holders Who Want to Add Other Existing Lines...

If you are the primary person on your Boost account you can add other existing lines to your account by simply logging in to your account and creating a family. A family is a group of phones/lines/phone numbers that are grouped under one primary account. These additional lines are considered secondary lines. Add each additional Boost mobile line to the primary or main Boost mobile line and select invite. The invited Boost mobile customer will receive a free text with an invitation. The invited Boost member must log in to their account and select accept. This is the method that can be used to add existing Boost customers to a primary Boost mobile account.
