Postpaid plans are required when financing a phone through your carrier and I believe are paid for the previous month's usage. Prepaid plans can't be used to finance a phone purchase and are paid for the following month's usage. Other than those main differences, the cell coverage should be the same under either plan. Autopay is when you sign up to pay your monthly bill automatically by providing a credit card rather than going in each month and paying manually. It saves you an additional $5 a month whether you have a postpaid or prepaid plan. Being able to get 6GB of data plus unlimited calls and texts for about $38 after tax was a no-brainer for me especially since I've been very happy with Verizon.

I just pay my bill by phone each month and if I'm paying say for a phone and iPad, then the amount is the same until they are paid off. I think I'm getting 2 GB.
