The state launched the Internet Discount Finder website to help Wisconsin households find and access affordable broadband.
The new tool can assist in finding free and discounted internet service available to eligible Wisconsin residents: https://apps.psc.wi.gov/InternetDiscountFinder
“Affordability is a consistent barrier to many who need broadband. The Internet Discount Finder is designed to make it easier for Wisconsin households to find ways to save money on essential internet services,” says PSC Chairperson Rebecca Cameron Valcq.
The Internet Discount Finder quickly matches eligible Wisconsin residents to low-cost home internet service and discount programs by entering their address and identifying their eligibility criteria. The tool will show available plans and describe next steps for enrollment in the Affordable Connectivity Program. The ACP helps eligible households get a discount of up to $30 per month for broadband service and internet connected devices. It saves up to $75 per month for households on qualifying tribal lands.
