Credit Card Customers Can Purchase iPhone Through Lower Monthly Installments¹ and Enjoy Flexible Upgrade to the Latest iPhone

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 15 March 2021 - Citibank announced today its partnership with local telecommunications service provider CSL Mobile to launch iPhone for Life, a purchasing program for iPhone and a first in Hong Kong. The program offers customers the flexibility to purchase the latest iPhone 12 models through lower monthly installments¹, and guarantees a buy-back value if the iPhone is returned to CSL Mobile after 24 months, under which the guaranteed buy-back value can be used for upgrading to a newer iPhone model. This partnership aims to provide selected Citibank credit cardholders² with the flexibility to settle their phone transaction in a way that aligns with their lifestyle and consumption preferences.

iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max introduce a reimagined design featuring immersive edge-to-edge Super Retina XDR displays, the powerful A14 Bionic, the fastest chip in a smartphone, advanced new camera systems, including the ability to shoot HDR video with Dolby Vision, the best 5G experience, and much more.

Selected Citibank credit cardholders² with an iPhone for Life invitation notification³ can apply iPhone for Life by purchasing an iPhone 12 model and subscribing to a designated 1O1O/csl 5G service plan for a contract period of 24 months at csl, 1O1O Center and HKT Shop. Once the iPhone for life application has been approved⁴ by Citibank, customers can split the iPhone payment⁵ into 25 monthly installments⁶ with 0% APR⁷. Customers are only required to pay around 77% of the iPhone payment in the first 24 months, and around 23% of the outstanding iPhone payment (also equal to the guaranteed buy-back value) on the 25^th month. After 24 months, customers can choose to return the iPhone to a designated 1O1O/csl retail outlet to receive the guaranteed buy-back value⁸ for upgrading to a newer iPhone model, or choose to keep their existing iPhones.

Limited Time Launch Offer

From now through May 31, 2021, the first 1,000 eligible cardholders who successfully apply for iPhone for Life will receive a pair of Powerbeats3 Wireless earphones⁹.
