Seems that you can ONLY do this IF you buy with Apple Card Monthly Installments, the iPhone upgrade program or Apple iPhone payments. So if you want to pay in full with a credit card you are **** out of luck. Unbelievable on Apple's part.
Got a tip for us?

What is visible? I have never heard of them. I will have to find out. I have 8 lines on my AT&T account, 5 phones and 3 watches.
Is anybody that has Verizon having an issue with prequalifying on the iUP? It states my account is not supported on Apple.com. But I am already part of it and have been and im getting the runaround from both Apple and Verizon.
There is a way but you have to do it via apple.com and manually entering your apple card number. It won't work when you select monthly payments but it does work when paying full price.
You can also do it on your apple app store but you can only do it via "check out" and not apple pay so likewise, you'll need to enter the apple card number manually.
Easiest way, jump to the cheapest phone with no down payment and return it. Youll pay restocking but its better than having to pay out the phone. Thats what I did
Correct - the app has to be used in order to pre-order.
Noticed this morning that I can go ahead and start the pre-order along with your choice of trade in, payment method, and carrier setup.
The only thing left is to complete the order on 10/16.
I look at it as a “perk” not unlike how you can get into concerts early if you have an American Express card etc. Not unbelievable - a way to incentivize you to use their financing options and/or recognize those that do.
Same. From a 6 Plus to an X, and I'm going back to the big phone. 12 Pro Max 128.
For me the decision was made easier because I want 128 GB which is the base level for Pro but an upgrade for the regular 12. It brings the price pretty close together and enough to justify buying the Pro even though I also am ambivalent about LIDAR and the camera.
Yeah the thing is I’d get an extra $30 knocked off on the 12 with Verizon but not the pro, which is kind of a bummer.
Isn’t there a way to save it to your favorites so you can access it quicker? I think that was what I did last year with the 11 pro and was able to get it on launch day.. unless that was what they changed to monthly payments only where you can speed throug.
Go to the phone you want in the store, select all the configuration options, and the “heart” will become clickable.
I'm in the exact same boat lol! I've either gotten Rose Gold or Gold (apart from iPhone X) since iPhone 6 and I was wanting a change with Pacific Blue. But the Gold looks sooooo good. I'm getting the Pro Max so I have some time to decide, but right now I'm torn. 😫
Why?
There’s no loan to get approval for if you pay in full with your card.
Go in and select your phone (as a new phone) including carrier & Apple care (using the iPhone app) and then select the heart so it stays in your favorites.
When it’s time to order, go to ‘For You’ and scroll down to Favorites And click on it to bring up all the specs then add to cart.
What annoys me apple store sale support dont know when the pre approval process for the 12 pro max series why announce something without giving the correct information to the people in sales to give to us customers.
I know you all can give us estimate dates but others have things to do we can’t be back and fourth on the page it would be simpler if apple provided the date to begin with so I can set up in my calendar so I come back at that day with the rest

I am all set for mine and my wife's preapproval. I went with Pacific blue for myself but now I keep doubting it. I wish there were real world pics of it. From what I saw on the GMA show, I wasnt in love with it. I generally like how sleek the black phone looks, especially with the edges of the phone basically blending in.
Do we think shipping times will slip quickly for the Pacific blue pro?
