Just to answer some common questions I keep seeing:
- Each card needs to be purchased as a separate Target transaction in order to get the Target card bonus for each Apple card.
- You can use the same Target account, no need to make separate accounts (unless you are trying to circumvent the new limit that seems to have been added today).
- You will get an order confirmation email immediately.
- Apple cards will arrive via email several hours to a day later. The email has a link to Target's fulfillment site which will then take you to the actual gift card code. From there you can either manually copy/paste the code or simply click the link and it should open up the proper program on your computer or phone in order to load the card to your Apple account.
- You will receive another email at some point that informs you that the email with the Apple gift card was sent. This email doesn't have any value.
- Target bonus cards will arrive a day or so later via email. I've found that they generally arrive a few hours after you receive the email I mentioned in the previous point above. Sometimes the cards will already be loaded into your Target wallet in the Target app, but the majority of mine have not been preloaded. The email will contain a link that will load them into your Target account. The Target app also has a button that will allow you to combine all the cards into a single balance for easier use.
- The Apple gift cards will trigger the bonus offers on the Apple site (for instance, buy an Apple TV with the Apple gift cards you bought from Target and Apple will send you a $50 Apple gift card).
- You can use the Target gift cards to buy other items at Target that have a gift card bonus offer, but you can't use them to actually buy more gift cards. For instance, you can buy two packs of laundry detergent which has a $5 Target gift card bonus offer and you'll get the $5 bonus gift card, but you can't use the Target gift cards to buy more Apple gift cards.
- You can load up to $2000 in total balance to your Apple account. Additionally you are only allowed to load $2000 total per day. So even if you buy something using your Apple balance you'll still need to wait a day before you can load more gift cards into your balance.
- You can apply up to 8 gift card codes during checkout at Apple.
Apparently, Best Buy will offer the same deal (BB GC) during BF.

Edit: some idiots have been replying to me on how they like this deal better than BB's since GC is more useful to them. I couldn't care less about your situation. I'm just letting people know about BB's deal.
Assuming you're treating the $20 like cash, you're getting 16.67% off, not 20%.

20% would be if they were only charging you $80 for a $100 gift card. You're paying $100 for $120.

Edit: Unless you're including the Red Card 5% off, in which case it's more like 21%

Stores have stock but the pick up windows are very limited. I got a pick up time by signing up early, like go on Apple's website and checkout in the morning at 7am to get a pickup window that day.
what's the advantage of doing a store pick up?

hmm. ok will give it a try but honestly i see two things here - i saw a page where i can make a reservation

but then each time i went to checkout - iphone 12 pro max - i can't find any stock for pick up - it just says unavailable.

i dont want to make an appt to go there and then find out they dont have stock

so unsure if they truly dont have stock or they did that to prevent crowds.

why? You already lost the benefit of not paying a lower amount in taxes with an immediate trade in.

I just did this hoping for the best. Buying the m1 air and figured this would "save" me $200.probably just sell the target gift cards if they arent automatically added to my target account
I've gotten 9 of the 11 I ordered so far. No Target GCs yet tho.

And it took you how long to get the Target GCs after you got Apple GCs?

I bought $2,800 worth of gift cards. I've received most of the Apple GCs from my purchases earlier in the day, but only a few of the Target ones. My order for the 8th GC got canceled. I tried chatting and they told me to call. First rep had no idea what was going on - first said I couldn't make a "bulk" purchase (i.e., I was getting too many even though there's no limit), then said it was a system thing, and told me to try tomorrow, but I asked for a supervisor and was transferred to a Target GC Specialist who told me:

1. There is no limit on the number of GCs I could order online, but sometimes the system flags too many back-to-back purchases so if that happens, to just give it half an hour and try again.

2. All the Apple GCs and Target GCs should be sent within 48 hours. Said there are delays on Apple's end since they're supplying the GC #s.

3. The system is being overworked since this promotion is so popular. Said this is probably the best promotion they've had in the history of Target and they've literally gotten millions of orders.

3. The promotion is ending TONIGHT so if I tried to try again tomorrow I would've been screwed. Target runs on Central Time, but she said she's seen some promotions end Pacific Time too. Soo.. if anyone is still contemplating it, get on it.

4. I was offered an additional Target GC credit for the inconvenience. She said they have a list of people and they'd determine how much they're giving people and send it out next week.

I maxed out the Chase Freedom 5% PayPal bonus, two Citi CC 5% back up to $500 offers (basically $25 back on $500), and used my RedCard on the rest. Actually used two Target accounts (my husband has one too), but bought 21 GCs on mine, so I guess that 20 order limit within 24 hours is not a thing?
You were persistent and really got the info on this. Pretty incredible that this is one of the largest promotions they have ever done. I was thinking about this tonight went to my local store and they had no Apple Gift cards at $100. So I did everything online. If I could do this in store I could have used Chase points to credit the transaction. Target codes as grocery.

I'm not sure I follow - i basically wanted to do it in store to avoid waiting for some third party to approve trade in

8 hrs now. still zero cards. 0 apple. 0 target. hope nothing cancelled..
I ordered 12 today. While ordering the 9th got canceled but I think it was because my credit card flagged it. I started using another credit card for the remaining 3. I opened the bank app for the first credit card and sure enough it had flagged the transactions and asked if I approve them which I did.

I've received 1 apple gc so far and funny enough it was from the last order I placed. Orders were placed between 2pm and 3pm central time

I saw your response in the thread and here is my question:

a) I will have to buy the phone online as I will be paying with an Apple account balance (one can't do it at the store, unfortunately).

b) If I pay for it online, how is the trade in handled? Is it a separate transaction or will be it be part of initial iphone 12 pro max order?

c) If I buy the phone online, will I be able to do the trade in the store?

d) If I choose to do the trade via mail, how will I get the $210 trade in value assuming the following scenario:

Total price: $1,306
Paid via account balance: $1200
Remaining paid via credit card: $106

Trade in value is $210.
Will $210 go entirely on my card? Or entirely via Apple gift card? Or a combination?

Thanks in advance
You could just buy the phone completely online, and then pick up in store, and while you're there to pick up your phone, you can do your trade in there. Your trade in will be credited back either to your credit card, debit card or another Apple store GC if you're so inclined. If you do ship to home, Apple will send you a trade in box to mail back your trade in, and then the "credit" will go on an Apple store GC but you can chat and reqeust the trade in to be go back to your credit card or debit card.

Not sure if anyone is in a similar situation but what if my balance is $2000 but the item i want to buy is $2400.

Can I apply my balance and then under the apply 8 gift card section - apply four individual codes?

anyone know if that will work?
Mentioned on the Wiki, scenario #2

isn't there actually an advantage and let's forget how it is being paid? For instance, for a phone that costs $1200 with a trade in of $300, wouldn't the tax be computed on $900 and not $1200?
