You can do it during the pre-order. Verbiage exists when you choose to upgrade. Test in in the app and you'll see

Is that $9.96 a month with the bill credits? If you trade in early, you generally lose any remaining bill credits. So instead of having $180 left, you'd be looking at original full price minus your payments minus the credits you have received thus far. So it could be $1000-$120-$276=$604.
Given it’s a shorter cycle, doesn’t this give two months payment to Verizon? Basically you’re paying a month overlap cost to upgrade.
I have $850 in vzw gift cards LOL so that’s who I’m going with this year even though I hate ordering through the carrier.
Verizon phones are unlocked after 60 days (2 billing cycles) after that they are free to use on any carrier
When I go to my line on the Verizon account, my only option to upgrade is to pay the full amount for my phone which is $634. I got my 12 Pro Max on launch day last year and it should be eligible for the Annual Upgrade program, I just have to pay 50% off the phone (at 43% currently) but it doesn’t give me the option for this smaller payment, only the full pay off (option is greyed out, and even if I do it from the shopping page, it’s the same result.) How can I get it to only give me the Annual Upgrade price?

nice...im going through apple with trade in and using the 650 towards a new iPad Pro
Just click that first option when you’re preordering it’ll give you the amount you need to get to 50%
Will the option become available when preordering? Right now if I try to buy another 12 Pro Max, it won’t let me select that option, it is greyed out and the only way to proceed is to check the pay off in full.
Any ideas which unlimited plans apply for the $1000 Verizon trade in deal mentioned here? Trying to see if my "The new Verizon Plan Unlimited" will apply as do not want to change.

If that option is greyed out right now then yeah you would have to talk to a representative because I doubt it'll let you when iPhone 13's preorder goes live.
on the website it says 'save up to $1000 via trade-in and get your trade-in promo credit over 24 or 30 months.'
wait if I would like to upgrade my 13 to 14, my 12 will worth let's say $300? that's ridiculous and a rip-off. I really need a clarification about this.

So i saw someone post your problem on reddit and he went to a verizon store to run a mock upgrade and it worked in-store so you might have to do it in store.
Yeah it’s meant to make you stay the whole 24/30 months with verizon. I’d suggest just selling the phone yourself instead.
Yea, that's why I never do promotions or trade ins through verizon. Only Best Buy or Apple.
Verizon always does that nonsense.
