# 'Apple Upgrade' Program Reportedly Launching Next Week

Apple and Klarna are partnering on a new "Apple Upgrade" program set to launch in the U.S. on Tuesday, July 28, according to _Bloomberg_'s Mark Gurman.

  
The program will allow you to finance most iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch models, with 24-month or 36-month terms available depending on the device. Customers will have the ability to pay off the device early during the term, upgrade early to a newer device, or keep the existing device at the end of the financing period.

Some lower-priced devices, including the Apple Watch SE, the entry-level iPad, the iPhone 16, and the MacBook Neo, will not be eligible.

Apple plans to stop accepting new iPhone Upgrade Program sign-ups once the new Apple Upgrade program launches, the report said.
