Apple launches Mac upgrade program, allows for some businesses to upgrade their Macs every 90 days through CIT financing

If your business is looking to upgrade its Macs a bit more often, this might be for you.

Apple has recently launched a new program via its business portal that allow for Mac upgrades every 90 days with financing through a certified third party. Through CIT, businesses can get a base model ($999) Macbook Air for $30/month with the option to upgrade it in three months if a new model comes out.

Although Apple currently offers multiple financing options for business from its own Apple Financial Services division, the new offering through CIT seems to offer a genuine Mac upgrade program for the first time in Apple history.

The program was first spotted by Max Weinbach on Twitter, who offered the following screenshot:

As mentioned earlier, business customers can return or swap their Macs after three months.

CIT’s fine print says that the financing is 3 percent of the total cost, so as you add upgrades to your Mac, the monthly cost would change slightly. According to CIT’s website, you apply for financing through them, sign paperwork, CIT issues a purchase order to Apple, and then your product is purchased. 

Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
