Planning for future technology refreshes helps organizations maintain productivity, support security requirements, and maximize the value of every device throughout its lifecycle. Our Apple Trade-In program helps make device refreshes simple by providing credit for eligible devices that can be applied toward the purchase of new Apple products. ## **Maximize Long-Term Value**![](https://fe5e0932bbdbee188a67-ade54de1bba9a4fe61c120942a09245b.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/Maximize_the_Value_of_Every_Device_with_Apple_Trade_In_(15).png) Mac is designed to deliver long-term value. According to a 2026 Forrester Total Economic Impact™ study commissioned by Apple, organizations reported greater residual value recovery because Mac devices retain more value over time, helping offset future technology refresh costs.¹ Our Apple Trade-In program helps organizations take advantage of that value by receiving credit for eligible devices when it's time to upgrade. ## **Simplify Your Refresh Strategy** Trade-in helps organizations: - Receive credit for eligible Apple devices - Apply Trade In credit toward new Apple products - Simplify device refresh planning - Support ongoing technology investments ## **Support Your Sustainability Goals** When devices aren't eligible for Trade In, Apple will recycle them responsibly at no cost. Trading in eligible devices and recycling the rest helps organizations support sustainability initiatives while extending the lifecycle of valuable materials. ## **Complete the Device Lifecycle** From deployment and management to support, protection, and refresh, every stage of the device lifecycle contributes to long-term business value. Our Apple Trade-In program helps organizations maximize the value of every Apple device while planning for what's next. **Contact us to see how much value your eligible Apple devices could provide toward your next technology refresh.**   ### References 1.
