I have a 2018 11” iPad Pro that’s covered with AC+ with monthly payments. I’m trying to cut down subscriptions and I’m wanting to just make the one time payment for the coverage. Is this possible?
Got a tip for us?

iPad AC+ monthly payments -> one time prorated payment... is this possible?

I am 99% sure there is no such option available at present.
You have to take that decision when you originally sign up.
Nope. You could buy an iTunes gift card (can occasionally be found discounted by 15-20%) and use that to pay for your AC+ subscription.
Can I ask why you want to cut out the AC+ monthly payment, but are ok making what's essentially the sum of those payments one-time?
I get that a true pro-rated amount would be slightly less, given upfront AC+ is cheaper than sum of monthly payments... But that aside, this feels a little bit like forcing a "cut to monthly subscriptions" in your life, but not actually cutting out the expense? Like, if it's more a psychology / budgeting thing, you could just make a "lump-sum payment" of the remaining monthly payments (that would get you to the 2yr mark) into a savings account, and then just draw from that savings account every month to pay for the AC+ payment?
I understand if there are other reasons you want to do this...
