iPhone Upgrade Program FAQ: Everything you need to knowGet the latest iPhone models without breaking the bank.
Considering joining Apple's new iPhone Upgrade Program when you pick up a new iPhone? Here's everything you need to know before signing up.
What exactly is the iPhone Upgrade Program?
This is Apple's response to new carrier deals that allow you to finance your phone for a set amount each month. The iPhone Upgrade Program lets you buy a new iPhone over the course of 24 payments; after 12 of those payments, you can automatically upgrade to the new iPhone—no hassle or extra fees required.
Previously, carriers offered you a set subsidy on your phone—somewhere between $300-$400 off—in return for signing a two-year contract; now, those subsidies are disappearing, being replaced instead with monthly plans from those carriers for paying off that expensive new iPhone. It makes sense that Apple would get into that game.
