Issue with my Google Account

Is my Google Account eligible?

Most Google Accounts can be used with Google Fi. These include:

• Google Accounts with "@gmail.com" email addresses.
• Accounts that use your own domain name, like work or school accounts.
• Other Google Accounts, like "@yahoo.com" or "@hotmail.com" email addresses.

Google Accounts for work or school

If you have a work or school Google Account, also known as Google Workspace, your administrator has to first turn on Google Fi service and Google Payments. Otherwise, to use Google Fi, sign up with a new Google Account.
