Engrave Your iPad or Air Tags, or Apple Pencil

Make it your own — or a gift they’ll never forget — with free laser engraving. You can add a message to any new iPad, AirPods, AirTag, or Apple Pencil (2nd generation). This option is available online and through the Apple Store App. NOTE: This service is only available online and is not offered on refurbished products.

After you select an eligible product, you’ll see an option to Add Engraving. Type in text and choose emojis to craft your own special message. You’ll see a preview of the engraving as you enter it. Then Save it and Add to Bag.

You may be able to make changes to the engraved text or cancel your item if online Order Status indicates that it has “Not yet shipped.” See the Viewing & Changing Orders section of Shopping Help for details or go directly to online Order Status.

Buy a Certified Refurbished Product

Apple is the exclusive provider of Apple Certified Refurbished Products and Clearance items.

Refurbished Products

Apple Certified Refurbished Products are pre-owned Apple products that undergo Apple's stringent refurbishment process prior to being offered for sale. While only some units are returned due to technical issues, every unit is evaluated to ensure it meets Apple's quality standards. We back these products with our standard one-year limited warranty. For extended coverage, you have the option of purchasing the AppleCare Protection Plan with any Apple Certified Refurbished product.

Refurbishment Process

Each Apple Certified Refurbished Product:

  • undergoes full functionality testing and any defective modules identified in testing are replaced.
  • Apple Watch and Apple Pencil devices that require replacement parts are not included in the Apple Certified Refurbished Program.
  • is put through a thorough cleaning process and inspection.
  • is repackaged (including appropriate manuals, cables, and new boxes).
  • includes either the Operating System originally shipped with the unit or, in some cases, a more recent version.
  • is placed into a Final QA inspection prior to being added to sellable refurbished stock.
  • is given a new refurbished part number and serial number.
  • is placed into a Final QA inspection prior to being added to sellable refurbished stock.

Refurbishment procedures follow the same basic technical guidelines as Apple’s Finished Goods testing procedures.
