Apple discontinuing Apple Card financing for phones without carrier connection - Lemmy.world

I’m curious whether or not “carrier connection” includes prepaid mobile plans or if it’s shorthand for “contract-only”.
I assume you just have to activate with that carrier. Do the big 3 even have prepaid plans?
Yeah, AT&T has a fairly sweet prepaid plan. Unlimited data, talk, text, no throttling, and only $50 a month if you use autopay.
