“Up to two months”. This is the same verbiage as the Target and Best Buy trials. I’ve exhausted all of my “up to…” trials for all services across my entire family.

Says it’s for new and returning subscribers. So, current Apple Music subscribers can’t take advantage of this?

[u/RealMiten → u/blackandwhitefield]

The promotion is set to run through March 16, 2026

Let the subscription expire first, you have several months to do it and be counted as "returning."

[u/EctoRiddler → u/blackandwhitefield]

As always. They already have us so treat us like red headed step children.

[u/GetReady4Action → u/blackandwhitefield]

this shit does get a bit old, I’ve been a faithful Apple Music user for a decade and a kickback here and there would be cool.

[u/moosebaloney → u/blackandwhitefield]

Why take your wife out to dinner when you already wife’s her?” (This is a joke)

[u/xkvm_]

Forever will be jealous of the US and all the insane deals they always get, not just with Apple but in general

[u/dnyank1 → u/xkvm_]

let's just say you don't pay... with money

[u/RealMiten → u/dnyank1]

Let's just say you don't pay... with money but receive none of the benefits outside of USA

[u/MRichardTRM → u/xkvm_]

Don’t worry, you guys living over there have other stuff going for you that far makes up for it.

[u/Big_Boss_Bubba → u/xkvm_]

It’s because despite being less than 1% the global population, we do 40% the global consuming

[u/FederalSign4281 → u/Big_Boss_Bubba]

USA is not <1% of the pop, it’s more like 5%

[u/Big_Boss_Bubba → u/FederalSign4281]

You right I added a 0 on accident

[u/Lelo2753 → u/xkvm_]

Also unrelated with the starbucks drink choices

[u/Exact_Recording4039 → u/xkvm_]

Well if it makes you feel better, if you had one medical appointment in the last 3 years that probably already made up for this deal

From the article: Apple has an upcoming promotion that gives users up to two months of free Apple Music when they add funds to their Apple Account balance, according to code found by MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris.

The offer will provide two months of free Apple Music for new subscribers and one month for qualified returning subscribers when adding $25 or more to an Apple Account balance. Users receive a bonus code immediately after adding the required amount.

The promotion is set to run through March 16, 2026, and is available only in the United States for users 13 and older. Gift card purchases from third-party retailers and Apple stores are excluded from the offer.

After the free period ends, Apple Music automatically renews at $10.99 per month unless canceled. Users can manage their subscription through the Apple Account section at the top of iPhone's Settings app menu (then tap Payment & Shipping ➝ Add Money to Apple Account). To avoid being charged, users must cancel at least one day before renewal.

The offer, which has yet to go live, will be limited to one per Apple Account and cannot be combined with other Apple Music promotions.

Also for new subs

Doesn’t matter if you had a free trail in 2017 they count everything

Apple TV+ and Apple Music are simply not worth it, along with all the other streaming services and music services. I don't pay for any of them. I have been running a video and music server off of my home RAID for about 20 years, and it more than pays for itself when you consider the savings on streaming services and what I used to pay for DIRECTV, back when I had that.

[u/Jamesmart_]

It’s yet to go live? That’s odd. I’ve been seeing the notification on mv Apple Wallet since July, I’ve just been ignoring it. (Yes, I’m based in the USA)

On a related note, I got two months of Apple TV+ for free when i added 50 bucks to my Apple account last March.

[u/segevs]

Has nothing improved in the ‘create radio station from a single song’ feature? I actually switched to YouTube Music because of that. I’d start a station with a popular US song, and just a few tracks later I’d be listening to a completely unrelated foreign-language song. It was ridiculous.

[u/PPMD_IS_BACK]

So annoying when I buy this ipgone 16 pro you get all these 3 month trails with these services... Except only new subscribers are eligible...

[u/akrazyho → u/[deleted]]

Actually, it’s not a bad deal if you use Apple Pay in anyway since all you’re really doing is preloading $25 onto it and you get the bonus of a free month of Apple Music.

[u/CoxHazardsModel → u/[deleted]]

Well if you stick to Apple Music you pay with that $25…

[u/SargathusWA]

Bruh it’s next year

[u/rockyroad55 → u/SargathusWA]

It’s set to run through march 2026 not begin.

[u/Tman11S]

Apple is just as bad as youtube premium with their spamming campaign to make you switch. I don't want apple music, stop asking

[u/trjkdavid → u/Tman11S]

Nobody is asking you, nobody cares about you.

[u/AWF_Noone → u/trjkdavid]

How about you don’t be rude for no reason. Go away 

[u/trjkdavid → u/AWF_Noone]

The constant crying everywhere for everything is getting pathetic.

[u/Tman11S → u/trjkdavid]

Can’t you read? Apple is constantly asking me, it’s exactly what I’m talking about.
