iPhone 12 Pro For those that pre-financed, how did checkout work?

For those that did a pre-finance option, before preorders went live, how did that work once the preorders went up?

Im thinking of doing this for the 12 Pro, do you just pick your iPhone, checkout as normal and have that finance option?

Pretty much. You have to pick your phone preference and carrier ahead of time. When you go into the store app when preorders open, it’ll pop up with your pick and upgrade program option. Just a couple of taps and you’re done. Make sure your shipping address and CC info are up to date before the store closes for preorders.

Ah ok,

I’m not looking to do upgrade program,

Just to get pre-approved for the 0% finance, then once preorders open, go through checkout and have the option to use my prepaid loan to pay for / secure the phone.

I used my Apple Card for 0% APR iPhone Payments. I was going to do use the iPhone Upgrade Program but I would have needed to enter all kinds of account owner details at checkout because that program requires an active post-dated line on one of the major carriers. Since I’m on a family plan now I decided I’d rather not be responsible for another person’s social and their account password/PIN just to be allowed to upgrade my phone on my credit line.

Checkout was very fast with the iPhone payments. If I remember correctly it was only about 5 taps or so from start to order confirmation.
