The promotion will be valid for all customers who purchase eligible products either at an ‌Apple Store‌, by phone at 1-800-MY-APPLE, or online. See the eligible product purchases listed below

As apparent from the list, in line with previous years, Apple is excluding newer ‌iPhone‌, Apple Watch, and Mac models from its gift card promotion. Interestingly, Apple is offering double the gift card value specifically for purchases of the 27-inch ‌iMac‌ compared to other Mac models part of the promotion. Amid rumors of an imminent update early next year, Apple may be looking to clear out existing stock of its largest ‌iMac‌, using the higher gift card value as an incentive for customers.

As a reminder, ‌Apple Store‌ gift cards can be utilized for several purchases, including products, accessories, music, movies, TV shows, iCloud, and more. For the latest and greatest Black Friday deals, be sure to checkout our dedicated roundup.

So you get nothing for buying the top of the range 16" Macbook Pro? But I can get $50 on 4 Airtags?
It says "up to $50 off accessories" and the most expensive item on that list is the magic keyboard. It will get the highest gift card amount. The Airtags will likely include a $10 - $15 gift card. Most likely... $10.

I recommend reading the actual offers on the Apple website. The article is missing a bunch of key details.

FULL T&C on how much you'll receive for each product, the up to $50 on accessories is only really on the Magic Keyboard, 4 Pack of AirTags is a $25 GC

The $50 card with Apple TV 4K is solid (assuming it's the 2021 version).

Nice, any idea if this works with the education store?

/edit - from the UK small print:

This offer cannot be combined with the Corporate Employee Purchase Programme, education or business loyalty pricing

So no!

The * Probably means 'Up to' $50 for that list of products.
