Terms & Conditions

The Extended Warranty must be purchased and registered within the first 11 months of your New Apple device’s original Apple hardware warranty. Keep the confirmation and the original sales receipts of your Apple product(s) as well as the Extended Warranty. Proof of purchase may be required if there is any question as to your products eligibility for the Extended Warranty coverage. Only genuine parts are utilised during a repair. The extended warranty does not cover accidental or physical damage of any form. Digicape Protection Plan cannot be transferred to another device. A separate plan must be purchased for each product to be covered.

Digicape Protection Plan (DPP) Terms & Conditions

Digicape Protection Plan (the “DPP”) is a product underwritten by Praysa Trade 1167 (Pty) Ltd t/a Digicape, an authorised Apple Reseller. Your Extended Warranty (referred to herein as the “DPP”) is governed by the following Terms and Conditions. Subject to these Terms and Conditions, your DPP (i) covers defects for the Apple branded product(s) and accessories (collectively referred to herein as the "Covered Equipment”) listed in your DPP Coverage and (ii) is only available for the Apple branded product(s) purchased from Digicape in South Africa.

1. Repair Coverage

Your coverage for defects begins on the date your Covered Equipment's Apple hardware warranty expires and terminates at the end of the Coverage Period (“Repair Coverage Period”). The duration of the DPP Coverage is valid for the set period (“Coverage Period”) specified in the DPP purchased, commencing on the date of invoice for the DPP. The price of the DPP is listed on the DPP's original sales receipt. There is no informal dispute settlement process available under this DPP.

Digicape will, at its option, repair or replace the affected Covered Equipment, if:

during the Repair Coverage Period there is a defect in the Covered Equipment's materials or workmanship or,
during the Coverage Period, the capacity of the Covered Equipment's battery to hold an electrical charge has depleted fifty (50%) percent or more from its original specification (after being fully charged and the Covered Equipment playing audio or video with all settings reset).

Digicape will provide both parts and labour. Digicape may provide replacement product or parts that are manufactured from parts that are new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability. The replacement product or parts will be functionally equivalent to the replaced product or parts and will assume the remaining coverage under the DPP. The product or parts that are replaced become Digicape's property. Digicape strongly advises you to record as a backup, data and software residing or recorded in the Covered Equipment, before making the Covered Equipment available for service. Telephone support for the Covered Equipment, is limited to hardware support only.
