Push to Talk
Push to Talk (PTT) is a walkie-talkie type service that allows you to instantly reach others by eliminating the dialing and ringing steps in a regular cellular call. You can call one person or everyone in a group in an instant. To use the service, your phone and the receiving phones must be capable of PTT. A selection of PTT phone models are currently available on our Phone Models page.
Push to Talk is an add-on feature to any GSM National or Family Talk plan. The cost to add the PTT feature is $11.99/month per line. The price includes unlimited usage for calls anywhere in the national Push to Talk coverage area (see PTT coverage map).
For more information about Push to Talk, see the video tutorial or the FAQs on the AT&T website.
To order the Push to Talk service, select the "Yes" button for PTT on the Order Form.
