Services
Until now, Apple used to sell its products through its official stores, authorized retailers, and e-commerce platforms like Amazon and Flipkart. Keeping in mind the COVID-19 pandemic, Apple will ship all orders from the online store with contactless delivery. Orders that do not require a signature will be left at the customer’s door, and those that do will need only a verbal confirmation from a safe distance instead of a written signature, the American tech giant said.

The AppleCare+ service by Apple Online Store will provide Indian users with up to two years of extended warranty of its hardware products. Apart from this, the trade-in program of the iPhone seller assists customers to access discounts on the purchase of new iPhones by returning previous models. The company will provide trade-in value of up to Rs. 35,000 and users will be able to add remaining amount and buy new products from the store.
