Paypal updated their offer to 1 time per account and sent everyone an email. 99% already used their offer. Stop multiplying these for every store.

Paying full price might be better anyway. Most of the "free iPhone 17" deals require you to switch to a plan that costs at least $70-90. Plus activation fee. If you go prepaid you can probably get a plan with everything you need for <$25. Do the math and see if it makes sense for you, I think no unless you're already on the $70-90/mo plan (and for some family plans) and it makes sense for you.

part of Paypal terms
"""Eligible Purchases do not include: (1) purchases that are marked as "pending" as of the end of the Offer Period"""

I think as long as the order is MARKED AS PENDING BEFORE DEADLINE it should qualify. of course you need to have the 20% offer.

Deadline is December 2nd 11:59PM PST

Can you still do a trade-in with this? I don't really want to sell my old phone and Apple is giving me more money than its going for on Marketplace
Yes, you can do a trade-in. That's what I did when I purchased my iPhone using Pay in 4.

i know i'm super late to this offer, but i decided to take the risk and order tonite, like smiling buffalo mentions, i'll wait and see if i get the points. i ordered for in store delivery tomorrow, so if the points dont post i'll just cancel the order.
for anyone trying, i'm not sure if this is neccessary, but i made sure to unfreeze my experian credit report before going thru the checkout.

I did yesterday but it's 24 hrs gone still don't see any pending points. Only thing i did different is, my credit card is in frozen state. Not sure, because of that my application could have denied. But still the apple pay is still showing as payment in progress. weird. If i don't get point, i may need to return the device Frown

do you mean your order did not go thru because the pay4 application was denied? i think its possible that frozen credit file will cause a denial

or you mean the order went thru? has your iphone shipped or marked as ready for pickup? i'll let you know if it changes when apple updates order as ready. but on the apple side its showing as payment complete.

So I pulled the trigger and I'm seeing a pending charge for PayPal pay in 4 of $320, but I do not see an email from Apple nor do I see anything in my order history? I believe when I clicked PayPal pay in 4 when it routed back to Apple site it said session expired. I'm a bit worried if I make another purchase the offer wouldn't even apply - anyone know what's going on here? I have a feeling the pending charge Will just disappear since nothing shows up in order history via apple

Pay 4 option showed up again but the 20% offer no longer shows in my rewards. Looks like they are offering a 5% option now

My iPhone order was $1314. For local pickup today. Once order was marked as ready for pickup by Apple, the points show pending now (25000).
Where exactly do you see 25,000? I see "Points Pending," but nowhere does it say 25,000.

Did the trade-in reduce your final out the door price (so you'd be losing basically 20% of that trade in value)?
