Apple launches monthly payment plans for annual subscription

Apple Expands Interest-Free Monthly Installments for Devices with AppleCare+ and Trade-In Bundles

Apple is making it easier than ever to own the latest devices through expanded Apple Card Monthly Installments, offering 0% APR financing, bundled AppleCare+ protection, and trade-in credits that lower your monthly payments. This upgrade transforms how enthusiasts upgrade their tech without upfront costs or interest charges.

What Are Apple Card Monthly Installments?

Apple Card Monthly Installments let you finance eligible products from Apple at 0% APR when you select this option at checkout on apple.com, the Apple Store app, or in Apple Stores. Payments spread over fixed terms, with each installment added to your Apple Card minimum payment due monthly.

Key benefits include 3% Daily Cash back upfront on purchases, which you can deposit into Apple Cash or a high-yield Savings account. Family members and co-owners also earn their own cash back on individual buys.

Eligible Products and Financing Terms

Multiple Apple devices qualify for these plans with tailored durations:

• iPhone: 24 monthly installments (choose carriers like AT&T, Boost Mobile, T-Mobile, or Verizon at checkout; switch carriers later).
• iPad, Apple Watch, Apple Vision Pro, Mac (MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, iMac, Mac Pro, Mac mini, Mac Studio), Pro Display XDR, Studio Display: 12 monthly installments.
• Eligible accessories may also qualify.

Note that mixing ACMI-eligible items with other purchases applies standard Apple Card APR to the installment product. Financing requires credit approval and is U.S.-only.

Bundling AppleCare+ and Trade-Ins into Your Plan

Enhance your purchase by adding AppleCare+ at checkout; its cost increases your total financed amount, spreading protection fees across installments. Trade in your old device to reduce the financed total, dropping your monthly payment even further.

For example, the trade-in credit applies directly, making high-end devices more affordable over time. View and manage these details in the Wallet app under Apple Card, including total financed, installment breakdowns, and early payoff options.
