Courtesy of Boy Genius Report.Walmart announced Monday that it will jump head-on into the cellphone business with its own, branded wireless plan.

The new postpaid plan, called Walmart Family Mobile, will be available starting next week without a contract, and is, honestly, a really good deal.

Walmart is a veteran in the cellphone market with its two prepaid plans: Common Cents, which operates on the Sprint network, and Straight Talk, which operates on the Verizon network. Walmart Family Mobile will operate on the T-Mobile USA network, the company said in a statement.

The new plan features unlimited calling and texting for $45 per month for the first line, and $25 per month for each additional line. The plan is "postpaid," which means customers will pay their bill at the end of the month, but does not require a contract so no early termination fees apply.
