DON'T PAY IT IN FULL UP FRONT! Someone in Event01 this year did that instead of buying on the 36month installment plan, and they never got the WM gift card as far as I know!
The initial purchase needs to be for the 36month contract and you can try to pay it off shortly afterwards. AT&T seems to allow you to fully pay it off online within a day or two after activation, but for paying it off with Verizon in 3 days you'll have to go into a CORPORATE Verizon store and pay it off in CASH!
If you're getting the deal at the physical Walmart store you could do a down payment for at least the Verizon phone,
and WHILE KEEPING THE 36MONTH CONTRACT pay everything EXCEPT $1.00 on the phone!
Several people did that in Event01, got emailed their WM gift cards shortly afterwards (since they bought it in the physical Walmart store), then they had to find a Corporate Verizon store to pay off the last $1.00, and then they had to call in and cancel their accounts etc within the first 3 days to get everything else refunded…
Try to make sure that the account is cancelled at the time that you're asking for it to be cancelled instead of someone setting it up to give you a bill for this month and then cancelling the account. Also, make sure that the activation fee is refunded since it's within 3 days.
Good luck!
It would probably be better to just sell your old phone outright than deal with being locked into a 3 year cell carrier contract to not lose part or all of the trade in credits from your old phone.
That's why the Black Friday WM egift card deal is so popular. The customers aren't losing bill credits for paying off early, and they still get the WM egift card.
Others here at slickdeals could probably point you to more legitimate websites to sell your old phone to. I haven't done it myself, so I can't help with any recommendations.
Good luck!
T-Mobile Keep & Switch pays off up to $800/phone on phone contracts that are 90 days or older and up to 4 phones can be paid off at once per account/person.
Currently you can get up to the iPhone 16 model lines paid off, but I noticed that after the start of the year they usually start allowing the newest September iPhone releases to be eligible for T-Mobile Keep & Switch.
Example: Black Friday 2024 T-Mobile Keep & Switch only allowed up to iPhone 15 model lines, but around January 2025 they started allowing the iPhone 16 model lines.
Theory: Around January-February 2026 I think the iPhone 17 model lines will be eligible for T-Mobile Keep & Switch…which would be around 60-90 days from the Black Friday sales and near the needed 90 days needed for a phone contract to be eligible for T-Mobile Keep & Switch.
Please don't quote me on that, because I only looked and noticed the iPhone 16s being added sometime in January/February 2025.
Nowhere in the T-Mobile Keep & Switch offer's website have I seen that you must remain with T-Mobile for a certain amount of time to prevent the rebate from being clawed back (unlike AT&T and Verizon's offers to buy out a rival cell provider phone contract).
You'd likely have to pay 1 month to T-Mobile per phone being paid off, but T-Mobile Keep & Switch works with the Essentials plan which I believe is the cheapest postpaid T-Mobile plan for those who aren't 55+, first responders, military, teachers, etc.
After getting the prepaid card and paying off Verizon I'd recommend doing 1 month of service at T-Mobile and then porting out to a different carrier a day or two before the 2nd month at T-Mobile starts!
Since Verizon automatically unlocks at 60 days you can:
take screenshots/pdfs of the newest bills for your phone line/phone contract (you should check and see what exactly T-Mobile Keep & Switch wants screenshots of),
use T-Mobile to get an eSIM/start porting out (Verizon account might not be available after you start porting out),
submit for the T-Mobile Keep & Switch rebate(s),
get the prepaid digital card(s) around 15 days after submitting for the rebate,
and you could possibly use the prepaid digital card to help pay off your remaining Verizon bill…
or if the Verizon account doesn't let you change your payment method you could use the prepaid card to pay other things off in the next 6 months before the card expires.
Customers using T-Mobile Keep & Switch that are coming from other carriers have to have screenshots/pdfs of their last bill, pay the phone off, get the paid off phone unlocked, and then go over to T-Mobile Keep & Switch and work on submitting the rebate.
DEFINITELY CHECK THE T-MOBILE KEEP & SWITCH INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR CURRENT CARRIER BEFORE TRYING ANYTHING!
And maybe take screenshots of the current T-mobile Keep & Switch website including all of the FAQs answers being extended to have proof that there was no mention of a minimum amount of time needed to be on T-Mobile to prevent the rebate card from being clawed back.

It's a bit complicated, but at least you don't get locked into a new 36month phone contract because of trading in your old phone that's still on contact. Heck, after the old phone is paid off you could just sell it outright online instead of using it as a trade in that locks you into a new phone contract…
Good luck!
iPhone to iPhone
I did eSIM swap first

If I have an iPhone 14 Pro, am I shit out of luck? Do trade in values ever go up? Is it on purpose in conjunction with the promotion?
ATT has a better deal comingfor xmas (they all likely do)
If you missed the initial trade in promo, these BF deals are just kinda trying to catch those with fomo of missing the original ones.
it gets better the longer you wait.
