Apple Distribution Partner Program

Apple's authorised distribution program for enterprise resellers. Only DPP-enrolled partners can sell Apple hardware to Indian enterprises at corporate tier pricing with Apple Business Manager enrolment, AppleCare+ / AppleCare for Enterprise, and full device traceability on Apple India's records.

In detail

Apple DPP (Distribution Partner Program) is Apple's vetted authorised-reseller channel for enterprise procurement in India. Apple approves DPP partners after a compliance, technical, and service-capability review. Once enrolled, a DPP partner can source Apple hardware (Mac, iPad, iPhone, Apple Watch, Vision Pro, AirPods) through Apple's authorised distribution network, apply corporate-tier volume pricing from as low as one unit, enrol devices into the customer's Apple Business Manager organisation with serial-level mapping, attach AppleCare+ and AppleCare for Enterprise at point of sale, and maintain full Apple India warranty coverage. DPP enrolment also makes the partner eligible to quote AppleCare OS Support tiers (Select / Preferred / Alliance) and AppleCare Help Desk Support to Indian enterprises.

Common questions

What does Apple DPP stand for?+

Apple DPP stands for Apple Distribution Partner Program — Apple's vetted authorised distribution channel for enterprise resellers selling to corporate customers in India and other markets.

Is Apple DPP the same as Apple Authorised Reseller?+

All Apple DPP partners are Authorised Apple Resellers, but not every Authorised Apple Reseller is DPP-enrolled. DPP adds the enterprise distribution tier — corporate pricing, ABM enrolment rights, AppleCare+ / AppleCare for Enterprise attach, and serial-level customer mapping. For enterprise procurement in India, look specifically for DPP-enrolled partners.

Why does Apple DPP matter for Indian enterprises?+

DPP enrolment is the only route to AppleCare+ attach, Apple Business Manager enrolment, serial-level traceability, and corporate-tier volume pricing on Apple hardware in India. Grey-market devices bought from marketplaces cannot be enrolled in ABM and are not eligible for AppleCare+ — which breaks enterprise MDM, warranty, and asset-management posture.
