Apple’s 2025 Black Friday Event Starts November 28 With Up To $250 In Free Gift Cards

Apple has announced its Black Friday event will start on November 28 and run through December 1 in a host of countries.

Those participating include the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Thailand, and others.

While Apple doesn’t offer any direct discounts, the company has confirmed that customers will receive a free Apple gift card with a value of up to $250 in value, depending on their purchase.

The freebie will be offered on purchases made via the Apple Store, the Apple Store app, and the Apple website. However, it’s important to note that the gift card can’t be used against the initial purchase – it can only be used on future purchases.

In the United States, Apple is offering up to $250 back in gift card value on a range of products, including iPhones, Macs, iPads, Apple Watches, AirPods, and more. As you’d expect, the more you spend, the higher the value of the gift card buyers will receive. However, Apple’s news products like the latest iPhones and Apple Watches are not included in this offer.

That means that buyers of the latest products might be better off picking them up from third-party retailers like Amazon. Especially if they are offering direct Black Friday discounts.
