Apple has expanded into Saudi Arabia with the launch of the Apple Store online and the Apple Store app to offer direct support in Arabic for the first time.

The launch of the online store gives Saudi customers access to Apple's full product lineup along with services from the company's expert team.

The iPhone maker said its online store in Saudi Arabia will offer flexible shopping with Buy Now Pay Later, allowing customers to pay in four monthly instalments with 0% interest. 

The Trade In program also lets users trade in devices for credit or recycle them for free to support sustainability efforts.

Saudi expansion 

Apple also plans to open its first flagship retail stores in Saudi Arabia starting in 2026, including a landmark location in Diriyah. 

This expansion builds on the iPhone maker's existing presence in the country, including the launch of the region’s first Apple Developer Academy in Riyadh in 2021.

“We are thrilled to bring the Apple Store online and the Apple Store app to Saudi Arabia, offering customers a new way to explore and shop Apple's extraordinary lineup of products and services,” said Apple SVP of retail and people Deirdre O’Brien.

“Our customers in Saudi Arabia are passionate about the things they can do with technology, and our teams can’t wait to connect with customers and help them discover how Apple innovations can meaningfully enrich their daily lives.”
