Where to apply if you want a free or heavily discounted Apple iPhone.
Yes, but with caveats. The government does not issue iPhones. Telecommunications companies use their own funds to provide iPhones as promotional incentives to attract Lifeline and ACP customers. These are almost exclusively certified refurbished devices, typically ranging from the iPhone 8 to the iPhone 12.
Because iPhones are in extremely high demand, inventory fluctuates daily. If you are determined to get an iPhone, you may need to check inventory frequently. Additionally, some providers may require a small one-time co-pay (e.g., -) to upgrade to a newer iPhone model.
Most households qualify through income or a program like SNAP, Medicaid, or SSI. Check eligibility →
