\u00ab Financing + Trade-in \u00bb: Since 2020, Younited has been offering an exclusive solution for installment payments of Apple products, fully instant and 100% digital, combining spot and forward trade-in offers in France, Italy, and Spain. This partnership promotes the second life of devices while providing immediate economic benefits to consumers who choose one of its various trade-in options. The days of keeping your old iPhone in the drawer are behind us!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the context of inflation and increasing demand for eco-responsible consumption solutions, Younited has developed an exclusive solution for Apple customers. This European platform combines the installment payment technology \u00ab Younited Pay \u00bb with a device trade-in program. Customers thus benefit, in addition to an innovative financing method, from an immediate reduction in their monthly payments by opting for an immediate (\u00ab spot \u00bb[1]<\/a>) and\/or future (\u00ab forward \u00bb[2]<\/a>) trade-in option for their Apple products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This program promotes more environmentally respectful consumption by involving the consumer in a \u00ab second life \u00bb approach from the moment of purchase. This option is subscribed by over 70% of customers of the program and widely praised by the salesclerks of merchant partners, who see the purchasing experience completely redefined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the \u00ab Younited Pay \u00bb financing solution, based notably on Open Banking, customers can request to spread the payment of their Apple product purchases over several installments, starting from 10 monthly payments and for amounts from \u20ac300. Financing for Apple Care insurance and accessories can also be included in the shopping basket, for a few extra euros per month. Thus, the comprehensiveness of the offer and its ease of integration into physical and online sales channels allow merchant partners to increase their average basket by 20% and makes their customers 20% more likely to buy again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Younited Pay solution offers a 100% digital amortizable credit experience (no revolving credit or unregulated installment payment), with no delay or paper-based documentation needed. Subscription takes only a few minutes, and customers receive an instant definitive response. In practice, they only need to provide an identity document, share their bank statement via a secure connection thanks to Open Banking technology. Customer and merchant satisfaction rates exceed 95%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
