When you pre-order your iPad, you'll select 'add a trade-in,' and you'll be asked a few questions to get your estimated trade-in value. If you choose to finance your iPad, Apple will apply the trade-in value as instant credit. If you pay the full amount, they'll credit your payment method once they've received and evaluated your trade-in.
