  • The Apple Trade In programme makes it easy to trade in an eligible iPad. Just answer a few questions regarding the model and condition, and we will provide an estimated trade-in value Footnote  or a simple way to recycle it for free if it’s not eligible for credit.

    If your iPad is eligible and you accept the quote, we will send you a free trade-in kit, separate to your new iPad (at no cost to you), so you can then send in your current iPad within the 14-day return window.

    Once we receive your iPad, we’ll inspect it and verify its condition. If the condition matches what you described, there’s nothing more you need to do. If the condition doesn’t match, a new trade-in value will be provided. You’ll have the option to either accept this revised value or reject it. We’ll work with you to confirm that you still want to move forwards with the trade‑in.

    The trade-in process can take up to 2–3 weeks.

    You can also trade your device in at an Apple Store at the point of purchase; however, the trade-in value in‑store may be different to the estimated trade-in value you received online.

  • Apple Trade In makes it easy to get credit towards the purchase of your next device. Simply answer a few questions about the model and condition of your current device, and we will provide an estimated trade‑in value. Footnote  If it’s not eligible for credit, you can recycle it for free.

    If your device is eligible and you accept the trade‑in estimate, we will send you a free trade‑in kit with instructions and a pre‑paid shipping label. Once you receive the kit, you have 14 days to send in your device.

    When we receive your device, we’ll inspect it and verify its condition. If everything checks out, your trade‑in will be complete. If the condition doesn’t match what you described, you’ll receive an email with a new trade‑in value. You’ll have the option to accept or reject this revised value.

    The trade‑in process can take up to 2–3 weeks.
