How the Program Works
Customers purchase eligible Pixel 10 series phones on a 24-month no-cost EMI plan through participating retail stores. Within 30 days of purchase, they enroll on Cashify’s website. After completing nine monthly payments, users become eligible to upgrade to the latest Pixel model. When upgrading between the 9th and 15th EMI, Cashify credits the remaining loan balance directly to the customer’s bank account, enabling loan closure without pre-closure charges.
“We’re continuously working to make Pixel phones accessible to more people in India,” said Mitul Shah, Managing Director of Devices and Services at Google India. “This program is designed with convenience and ease-of-mind at its heart.”
Exclusive Benefits and Subscriptions
The program offers substantial value-adds beyond financing. Pixel 10 Pro, Pro XL, and Pro Fold buyers receive one year of Google AI Pro, six months of Fitbit Premium, and three months of YouTube Premium. Standard Pixel 10 buyers get six months of Google One Premium (2TB storage), six months of Fitbit Premium, and three months of YouTube Premium.
The assured buyback feature guarantees device exchange regardless of cosmetic condition, provided the phone powers on and passes basic functional checks. This removes uncertainty from the upgrade process and ensures predictable costs throughout ownership.
Strategic Market Play
This initiative reflects Google’s commitment to value-conscious Indian consumers who prefer structured payment plans over large upfront costs. By partnering with trusted financial institutions and Cashify’s established trade-in network, Google addresses concerns around affordability, upgrade anxiety, and device resale hassles simultaneously.
