# 'Apple Upgrade' Pricing: You Can Lease an iPhone Starting at $18/Month

As expected, the Apple Upgrade program launched today, allowing customers in the U.S. to lease most iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch models. While the program is offered by Apple, the leasing is handled by financing company Klarna.

The program essentially allows you to subscribe to an Apple device with monthly payments. At the end of the lease, you can return your device and either upgrade to a new one or move on. If you prefer to keep your device at the end of the lease, you can pay a fee through the Klarna app to own it outright instead of upgrading to something new.

Apple Upgrade allows you to lease an iPhone for as little as $17.99 per month, with the complete breakdown of starting prices listed below.
