Not Your Average Coverage.
GatorGuard works alongside your AppleCare+, giving you unparalleled coverage and benefits for your new Mac, iPad, iPhone, or Apple Watch.
The included 3 year Safeware warranty for Mac covers your AppleCare+ deductibles – meaning you pay nothing when your computer requires hardware service. The included Safeware warranty for iOS covers your deductibles for the 2 year AppleCare+ term, and also gives you an additional 3rd year of warranty through Safeware.
Because we’ve partnered with SafeWare, your warranty extends beyond Gainesville. You can have your products serviced at any Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider, so no matter if you’re traveling for work, or home for summer break, you can relax knowing your device is covered.
Your GatorGuard membership also includes a FREE data transfer, priority service, discounts and more, saving you more than $800 over three years! Read more about all of GatorGuard’s amazing benefits below.
