Does Verizon require a contract?

For Christmas I really want an iPhone. My parents have us with MetroPCS but they have no iPhones; so, I'm trying to convince them to move to Verizon. But, my parents are illegals and said they need to be documented to have phones with contracts. Does Verizon have any plans that don't need a contracts? P. S. Please no hate on my lovely parents.

Verizon requires plans with all their iPhones

Verizon does have a prepaid plan, that doesn't require a contract, but you can't get that for the iPhone

the only companies you can get the iPhone from that doesn't require a contract is Virgin Mobile and Cricket.

You should check out Virgin Mobile, they have iPhones with no contracts. I think it is so adorable that you think your parents are lovely. You Have a great holiday.

  • Why does iPhone not have the option to require a password to turn the phone off? When someone steals your iPhone, the first thing they do is turn it off, not allowing you to use the GPS function to search for the phone. This means you have 0 time to get a rough idea of where your phone is, as this may still be very useful in tracking your phone. Is it because: 1. They not thought of the idea 2. Apple wants stolen phones in order to increase sales 3. It's a stupid and pointless idea to begin with
  • Does the iPhone 6 require internet for it to buy it? Or can you buy it without the internet? Ok, so my dad's going to buy me a new phone as a reward for getting into this good school. I want to get the iPhone 6, but he says that the iPhone 6 MUST HAVE internet and that we can't afford that. Is this true, do you need to buy the iPhone 6 with internet?
  • Does the iPhone 4 require a SIM card to work? I want to get off of my contract and change to prepaid but I don't want to buy a SIM card will my iPhone 4 work with out one?
  • Does the Apple iPhone 4 require internet? I don't want internet on the phone. I was wondering if I can still get it without internet. It would be with Verizon. Oh I meant that would I have to pay for internet to be able to use this phone? Some companies make you get internet for phones like these, but I do not want it.
