MrBeast Reportedly Intends to Introduce Mobile Phone Service


Leaks suggest that Jimmy Donaldson, famously known as MrBeast, intends to launch his own mobile phone service by 2026. Business Insider has reported that a confidential pitch deck shows the YouTube sensation’s ambition to step into the telecommunications arena. This initiative is part of a broader strategy by Donaldson and his team to broaden the MrBeast brand, which also encompasses plans for a creator platform and financial services.

Donaldson is not anticipated to build a phone network from the ground up. Rather, the service is likely to operate as a white-label project, featuring MrBeast branding while being managed by a well-established carrier such as Verizon or T-Mobile. This arrangement, referred to as an MVNO (mobile virtual network operator), is a common entrepreneurial pursuit among celebrities. Ryan Reynolds had previously co-owned Mint Mobile before its sale to T-Mobile for $1.35 billion.

Although entering the telecom market may appear unconventional, it corresponds with Donaldson’s strategy to branch out beyond traditional media. His brand already comprises a profitable chocolate brand, Feastables; a packaged lunch rival, Lunchy; and the ghost kitchen franchise, MrBeast Burger.

For MrBeast, the mobile phone in your hand could represent the next major opportunity. If just a small segment of his over 400 million subscribers decides to join, it could result in substantial profits down the line.
