Carrier AHIP Discounts: If a carrier offers an AHIP discount, most of the time these discounts are offered through a special link provided by carriers. You can find how to get to the carrier AHIP discounts below.

If the "$50 AHIP Discount" is blue, then that is a link you can click to go to the carrier-branded AHIP login page.  You'll know the link worked if the carrier logo is in the top right corner! Here is an example:
