PureTalk Holdings, Inc. is an American mobile virtual network operator headquartered in Covington, Georgia, United States. PureTalk provides wireless phone service over the AT&T network, while also leveraging eSIM technology.

Marketing

PureTalk is promoted primarily towards senior citizens, as well as U.S. military veterans (the latter citing the company having been founded by a veteran, even though it is owned by Telrite Holdings).

PureTalk has marketed itself through paid endorsements by conservative radio hosts and internet personalities such as Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Dennis Prager, Ben Shapiro, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. Levin has promoted Pure Talk as an alternative to AT&T due to it being a "woke" company, despite the fact that PureTalk uses the AT&T network. Additionally, PureTalk joined PublicSquare, an e-commerce platform that aims to be a woke-free alternative to Amazon and other big e-commerce platforms.

In its marketing, PureTalk claims to have forgiven $10,000,000 of veteran debt.
