Apple’s new iPhone 18 Pro is here, and Verizon is rolling out several ways to make the upgrade easier on your wallet. The carrier is offering up to $1,200 off a new iPhone for anyone who adds a new line on an eligible myPlan, while existing customers can get up to $1,020 off an upgrade.
Switchers have another option with Simplicity Pro, which bundles the iPhone 18 Pro and unlimited service for $80 per month, split between $50 for the phone and $30 for the plan. The brand is also offering deals that include an Apple Watch and an iPad, plus a separate offer for business customers.
Trade In Your Old Phone and Save Up to $1,200
Verizon’s myPlan offers provide bigger savings for customers with an eligible device to trade in. New customers and those adding a new line can get up to $1,200 off a new iPhone with a qualifying trade-in and eligible myPlan.
Existing customers aren’t left out. Verizon is offering up to $1,020 off when you upgrade an existing line and trade in an eligible phone on myPlan.
Eligible trade-ins include qualifying devices from Apple, Samsung, Google, and Motorola. The phone must have been active on the Verizon account for at least 60 days.
The caveat here is that they aren’t instant $1,200 discounts. Verizon applies the savings as monthly promotional credits over a 36-month interest-free device payment plan, so you will need to stick around to receive the full value.
Get the iPhone 18 Pro and Service for $80 a Month
Verizon’s Simplicity Pro offer is another option that makes it easy to get Apple’s newest device. Switchers can get the iPhone 18 Pro for $50 per month and pair it with a $30 unlimited wireless plan, for a combined cost of $80 per month.
Simplicity Pro also comes with an annual upgrade option. After 12 months, or once at least 33% of the phone has been paid off, you can swap your current device for the latest eligible iPhone.
And thanks to the Verizon Loyalty program, you’ll be able to enjoy a few extra perks. Members won’t pay activation or upgrade fees and can earn 3% back each month in Verizon Dollars. You can put those rewards toward another phone purchase or accessories, including the new AirPods 5.
Verizon Will Throw in an Apple Watch and iPad
Buying an iPhone can also open the door to two more Apple devices. Customers who purchase a new iPhone or bring an existing phone while opening a new line can get an Apple Watch and an iPad included through promotional credits.
The bundle works with both Simplicity and myPlan. You’ll need to add new lines with Auto Pay for the Apple Watch and iPad, and Verizon will cover the eligible device costs through monthly credits spread over 36 months. That means the hardware may be covered, but the extra connected-device service lines still add to the monthly bill.
Customers using the bring-your-own-device route must also keep the new phone line active for at least six months. The good news is that the bundle can stack with eligible Simplicity Pro and myPlan iPhone offers, potentially making it one of the more valuable options for someone already planning to add an Apple Watch or iPad.
Businesses Can Get an iPhone 18 Pro for Free
Verizon has separate launch offers for business customers. Companies switching to Verizon Business can get the 256GB iPhone 18 Pro for free or receive up to $1,200 off the iPhone 18 Pro Max with an eligible trade-in and qualifying My Biz Plan.
Some customers can squeeze out an additional discount by bringing their existing number. Verizon is offering an additional $360 port-in credit on select My Biz Plans.
Verizon Is Giving iPhone Buyers Plenty of Options
No single Verizon iPhone 18 Pro deal works best for everyone. Switchers who don’t want to rely on a large trade-in discount may find the $80-per-month iPhone 18 Pro and unlimited service bundle easier to understand, especially with annual upgrades included.
Those with an eligible phone to trade in can potentially save considerably more through myPlan, with discounts up to $1,200 for new lines or $1,020 for existing-line upgrades. And if an Apple Watch or iPad was already on your shopping list, Verizon’s additional device bundle could stretch the value even further.
