AirPods are Apple’s wireless headphones that have been successful in the markets since their launch. We currently have three models: the standard, the Pro and the Max. Each headset with its advantages and disadvantages but all with cutting-edge technology that provides the best possible sound to users.
Apple wants to continue capturing all those AirPods users to join Apple Music, its streaming music service, giving away six free months of Apple Music to all users who buy AirPods, Beats or HomePod. If you are lucky and Santa Claus has left you one of these headphones, we will tell you how to redeem those 6 months free from your device.
6 free months of Apple Music if you have new AirPods
This offer is not new, Apple promoted it at the end of 2021 and until now it is still valid, although at the time it was said that it would be for a limited time. However, Christmas 2022 has arrived and the offer is still valid for new users of a new AirPod.

It is a promotion where Apple is giving away six months of Apple Music for free to those new owners of a headset from the big apple. Before reading further, let’s see what those compatible devices are and if your headphones are included in the list:
- AirPods Pro (all generations)
- AirPods 2nd and 3rd generation
- AirPods Max
- Beats Studio Buds
- powerbeats
- Powerbeats Pro
- Beats Solo Pro
- Beats Fit Pro
- HomePod

As you can see, not only AirPods are included in the list but also HomePods and some Beats. In fact, Apple warns that some older devices are not valid for this offer:
First-generation AirPods, Beats Solo3 Wireless, Beats Studio3 Wireless, Beats EP, and Beats Flex are invalid.
Accessing the promotion is as simple as pairing your new headphones
The promotion is automatic when we first pair our headphones with an updated iOS or iPadOS device. In the first moments where we configure the AirPods or the headphones, a window will be displayed notifying us of the promotion: six months free subscription to Apple Music. If at that moment the window does not appear, enter the Music app and go to the “Listen” section at the bottom.
We can access the promotion by clicking on “Redeem now” as long as we take into account that when those six months are over, Apple will charge the subscription of 10.99 euros per month until the subscription is cancelled. Therefore, the recommendation is to accept the promotion and leave a reminder to delete the subscription registered days before the free months expire.
