Total Wireless is owned by Verizon. It is a prepaid wireless service provider operating under Verizon's network and part of Verizon's Value portfolio of prepaid brands, which also includes Straight Talk, Visible, Tracfone, Simple Mobile, SafeLink, Walmart Family Mobile, and Verizon Prepaid. Verizon acquired TracFone Wireless, which previously managed brands including Total Wireless, and integrated them into its wireless business. Total Wireless rebranded from "Total by Verizon" back to "Total Wireless" to create a distinct identity while still being owned and powered by Verizon's network.
