Lifeline benefits are particularly valuable for residents in urban centers like Ann Arbor, Kalamazoo, and Dearborn, providing reliable communication for work, telehealth services, and staying in touch with family. With Cliq Mobile offering coverage throughout the entire state of Michigan, eligible participants can enjoy dependable service whether they're in Traverse City, Saginaw, or anywhere in between, ensuring no Michigan resident has to go without this crucial connectivity resource.

ACP UPdate

📣 2025 Update - Michigan Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP)

The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) has provided essential phone and internet service discounts to millions of households across the Country, including many in Michigan. Due to recent funding changes, the ACP program is currently paused, and many in MI are asking: “Is ACP ending?” or “When will ACP funding resume?”. The reality is- we don't know (yet).

At Cliq Mobile, we’re actively monitoring ACP updates from the government and the FCC, along with the MI State Government. While ACP funding and benefits are temporarily on hold, experts believe there’s a strong possibility the ACP program may return. Make sure to join our mailing list to be among the first to find out, so that you'll be first in line if/when the program does return.

What ACP Offered (And Could Offer Again):

Monthly discounts on phone and internet bills.

Free or discounted smartphones.

✅ Easy application and qualification based on income or participation in assistance programs.
