MRBEAST REPORTEDLY PREPARING TO LAUNCH HIS OWN PHONE COMPANY AS CREATOR ECONOMY MOVES DEEPER INTO TECH
AppleMagazine
|September 12, 2025
Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, is reportedly working on one of his boldest ventures yet: launching a phone company.
-
The YouTube megastar, who has already built a sprawling business empire that spans fast food, snacks, philanthropy, and entertainment, now appears ready to step into the highly competitive world of telecommunications. If true, the move would mark a dramatic escalation in how far creators can extend their influence beyond content and into infrastructure-level industries.
FROM YOUTUBE STAR TO BUSINESS MOGUL
With more than 300 million subscribers across platforms and a reputation as the most-watched individual creator on YouTube, MrBeast has turned his fame into one of the most diversified creator-led business portfolios in the world. His ventures include Feastables, a snack brand that quickly hit supermarket shelves; MrBeast Burger, a virtual restaurant chain; and multiple philanthropic projects that generate both social impact and brand loyalty.
A phone company, however, would be an entirely different scale of ambition. Unlike snack bars or fast food, telecom is capital-intensive, highly regulated, and dominated by established giants like Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. The move suggests MrBeast is aiming not just to monetize his massive audience but to transform it into a loyal customer base for everyday services.
WHAT THE PHONE COMPANY COULD LOOK LIKEDetails remain scarce, but industry insiders believe MrBeast's venture would likely take the form of an MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator). MVNOs lease capacity from existing carriers and resell it under their own brand, often with unique marketing angles, lower prices, or added perks.
