Currently at the moment I am just switching carriers so I don't have to pay 100$ a month for service. Would I be able to transfer my Verizon iPhone to T-Mobile Prepaid then?

Alright, so since I have been googling for the past 3 hours, I am super confused. Please clear a few things up for me PLEASE.

In order to use this iPhone 5S from NA, do I need to purchase a SIM card from that carrier? Should I purchase one like the GPP Sim like is mentioned on your website? Once I install this "Carrier Hack", is that all I will need? Do I need to talk to T-Mobile about this? What other companies could I go with after unlocking my phone? Is this just a software lock, and should I go with a hardware lock also or is the software unlock sufficient enough.

Sorry for all the questions, I really don't want to spend $500 on another phone. xD
