Yokota Air Base – Yokota shoppers purchasing big-ticket items can also purchase peace of mind with Exchange Protection Plans or AppleCare+.   

Exchange Protection plans, powered by Asurion, can be purchased with electronics, jewelry, appliances, sunglasses, lawn and garden items and more. The plans cover the most common factors that can damage or destroy items, such as accidental damage from handling (on portable electronics); breakdowns because of heat, dust and humidity; power surges; and wear and tear. Exchange Protection Plans come in varying lengths, from one-year to lifetime warranties.

“Yokota Exchange shoppers can rest easy knowing big-ticket purchases are protected,” said Yokota Exchange General Manager Andrew Defelice “They can shop with confidence knowing that their purchases are safeguarded.”

Electronics that connect to Wi-Fi receive additional benefits with Exchange Protection Plans, including 24/7 tech support to assist with new device setup, smart home setup, Wi-Fi troubleshooting, settings optimization and more.

For shoppers purchasing Apple computers, smartphones, tablets, Apple TVs, watches and more, there’s AppleCare+ protection to cover screen damage, theft, batteries and more. AppleCare+ provides service and support from Apple experts, with most issues being resolved in a single call.

Online shoppers, including honorably discharged Veterans who have verified their eligibility to use their lifelong benefit at ShopMyExchange.com, can add protection plans or AppleCare+ during checkout. In-store shoppers, including Veterans with service-connected disabilities and Department of Defense and Coast Guard civilians, can speak with an associate at checkout to add a plan.
