To add minutes to Boost Mobile, you have three official options: redeem a Re-Boost card by phone, in the Boost Mobile app, or on the Boost Mobile website. Before adding minutes, it is important to check your current balance so you know exactly how much to add and can manage your Boost Mobile services effectively.
Check your current balance
Dial the USSD code *233# from your Boost Mobile phone to check your current balance instantly on screen. You can check your balance using the My Boost Mobile app or by signing into your account on the Boost Mobile website. The official help page states that the My Boost Mobile app lets you check your balance and see your usage and recharge history. You can also manage service online by signing in on the website, where the account dashboard allows you to manage your Add-Ons.
Redeem a Re-Boost card by phone
Re-Boost cards are available at retail locations including convenience stores, grocery stores, electronic retailers, and Boost Mobile authorized dealers. Scratch off the protective coating on the back of the Re-Boost card to reveal the hidden PIN. To redeem a Re-Boost card by phone, dial #ADD (233) from your Boost Mobile phone and enter the Re-Boost PIN when prompted. This is the official phone method documented by Boost for adding value to your account. Retain the receipt from the Re-Boost card purchase as it contains essential information for resolving card activation issues.
Redeem a Re-Boost card in the app
The Boost Mobile app is available for both iOS and Android devices. Open the Boost Mobile app, go to Settings, then select Redeem Re-Boost Card under Billing & Payments, and enter the PIN. The app is also documented as a place to recharge, set up and manage auto recharge, check your balance, see usage and recharge history, and get help.
Redeem a Re-Boost card on the website
Sign in at BoostMobile.com, go to Payments, click Make a Payment, select Redeem Prepaid Card, and enter the Re-Boost PIN. This is the official website path for redeeming a Re-Boost card.

For activation support, call Boost Mobile Activation Support at (866) 957-8278, also available daily from 8 a.m. to midnight ET. Note that the help page does not give a separate “add minutes” phone menu; the documented phone method for adding value is to dial #ADD (233) from a Boost phone and follow the prompt for the Re-Boost PIN.
