Visit the deal page on a desktop browser. Also do store pick up if possible to get the phone unlocked right away otherwise you might have to wait for 35 days for unlock.
You can select new customer and pay in full to get the $480 price. You can then select simplicity plan. Once you get the phone you can just cancel the line. Verizon unlocking policy states the devices are unlocked immediately if you pay in full. Their cancellation policy states no activation fee within 3 days and then only prorated charges if you cancel your line within 30 days.
***You might have to wait for 35 days before the phone is unlocked if you don't do store pickup in person as Verizon considers their online store purchase with delivery not secure. You can cancel your line nonetheless as the device will still unlock automatically after 35 days****

Community Reviews
This Verizon Pixel 11 Pro deal is mainly about getting a heavily discounted flagship and then verifying carrier unlock after activation. The strongest upside is the low out of pocket price, with store pickup and immediate activation often leading to an unlocked phone that works with Google Fi, Mint, T Mobile, or other eSIMs. The main catch is Verizon's confusing unlock behavior, since some units stay locked for hours or days and the bootloader remains permanently locked. Cancellation usually needs chat or phone support, and full month bills or prorated charge adjustments can take follow up.

I picked up the phone at the store; can I cancel the line without activating the phone? I assume the SIM card - an eSIM - is built into it.
edit: if it does not work with the other SIM, you will need to activate the phone on Verizon first and then check again.
Create a new profile in your browser, the only extension installed should be the CB extension. Use that profile when making a purchase.
I have 3 profiles for this, one for C1, another for rack, and one for Delta (but delta is by far the worst, can't remember the last time I used it).
Spend $90 to get a guaranteed $420 is a no-brainer, and they have Lowe's GCs which is basically a cash equivalent to me during my remodel.

Developer Options it was grey out. So I freaked out for about an hour or two thinking how was I going to get around this. Than I found out that only meant you can't really put on a different operating system. Than everyone kept tell me to put in a sim card from my mint mobile. THESE PHONES DO NOT TAKE PHYSICAL SIM CARDS. Anyone commenting must not be from the US cause the US phones DO NOT TAKE A PHYSICAL SIM CARD. I then went to my account and my account said it was unlocked. I than went into setting and searched for other towers and they all showed up so at that point probably around 6 pm I realized I was unlocked. Around 9 pm so 7 hours of having the phone and making 2 calls and 3 text and watched a little youtube tv. I got onto chat and was really nice to the person and had them cancel the line. I told them the people at work said verzion didn't work out there and I didn't believe the people I worked with but yeah it didn't work. So he cancelled the line right away and said there be no bill even though there kind of is one he said don't worry it will come off or something too that affect.
Once that was done I had a sim card in my pixel 7a from mint. I went to the google pixel 11 pro and selected add Esim. I had it serach the network. It found the mint mobile and transfered it over to the pixel 11 pro as an esim since THESE PHONES DON'T TAKE SIM CARDS. Anyway got that done and mint has worked fine and the last 2 hours been working on logging into every app cause nothing is really saved.
Now my mint expires in 15 days and Specturm is offering me a free year since they took over cox so now i have to figure out how to port my number from mint too spectrum on the same phone.
