Join realme VIP Before Ordering a Phone to Get realme Care+ at Half Price
Set a reminder for about eight months after your phone arrives to decide on the half-price extended warranty, before its 270-day buying window closes.
You become a realme VIP member for free when you register on the realme online store, and members get 50% off realme Care+ plans. Create your account before you buy the phone, so you are already a member when you choose a plan.
Timing decides which plans you can still buy. Screen damage and accidental and liquid damage plans must be bought the same day or within 3 days of activating the phone, so decide on those along with the phone order. The extended warranty has a 270-day buying window, so you can use the phone for a few months before deciding whether you need it.
Damage cover starts 7 days after you buy the plan, while the extended warranty starts only when the standard warranty ends. Membership also gets you a free in-person system upgrade, screen cleaning and a new protective film for realme phones, so get the film replaced at a service visit instead of paying for a new screen guard.
