Apple to reportedly launch in-store, trade-in program for the Mac
Wednesday, June 10, 2020 at 12:54PM If the new Bloomberg report is accurate, you might be able to trade-in your old Mac computers in stores, which is a first for this product segment. Apple already offers in-store trade-ins for the iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. The company also provides trade-ins for the Mac on Apple's site, but now this will be an offline option. It'll supposedly be available in Canada starting June 18, while US retail stores will offer this starting June 15.
Customers can exchange their machines for credit towards a new Mac or an Apple gift card. The move can help boost sales for Macs, especially with rumours that a new Mac is coming out soon. But as Bloomberg points out, the impact of this program might take weeks to be realized, with around 200 retail stores still closed because of COVID-19 precautions.
