Is Apple offering free two-hour delivery for last-minute holiday shoppers?

Apple has introduced a complimentary two-hour delivery service for those in need of last-minute holiday gifts. This service is available until December 24 in most metropolitan areas across the U.S. and Canada, with a three-hour delivery option offered in Australia. Typically priced at $9, the two-hour delivery is facilitated by courier partners such as Uber Eats and Postmates, with items dispatched from local Apple stores. Eligible products include in-stock iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, AirPods, Apple TVs, and Beats headphones. However, custom Macs, engraved items, and accessories are excluded from this offer. Additionally, certain products can still be delivered by December 24 with express shipping. Apple also continues to offer an extended return policy, allowing returns until January 6, 2026, for purchases made now.
