Get a new iPhone every year, easily and affordably

Forget your 24-month mobile upgrade – iStore has launched a programme to help you get a new iPhone every year.

Contracts offered for handsets from providers span two years, but Apple introduces a new iPhone on an annual basis.

This means that you often spend a year missing out on the latest mobile technology available.

“We know how frustrating it is when you have to wait to get your hands on something you want,” iStore said.

“And we know how nationwide FOMO sets it when the latest iPhone is being paraded around by other people whose contracts have luckily coincided with the time of the new product launch.”

Through iStore’s brand new iStore Card, you can now get the latest iPhone every year through a monthly payment plan separate from your cellular network.

This is how it works:

  • Apply for iStore Card here (https://www.istorecard.co.za/)
  • Once you have it, walk into any iStore, and take out a 24-month payment plan for your brand-new iPhone
  • Get your SIM-only contract separately on any network, or use prepaid voice & data, and enjoy
  • Come back in a year and trade in your old iPhone for the latest one*, or at least have the freedom to choose what you want when you want it.

The table below outlines some monthly payment plan examples (available across all iPhone models):

iPhone model On a 24-month payment plan
iPhone 6s 16GB R549 pm
iPhone 6s 64GB R633 pm
iPhone 6s 128GB R722 pm
iPhone 6s Plus 16GB R634 pm
iPhone 6s Plus 64GB R722 pm
iPhone 6s Plus 128GB R815 pm

This is the qualifying criteria for an iStore Card:

  • 18 years and older
  • R4 000 minimum salary
  • South African citizen
