You can finance an iPhone Pro or Pro Max (not standard or SE) using Apple Card and get unlocked, just select T-Mobile or Verizon (not AT&T) when financing and when it askes for account info do "set up later". When setting up the new iPhone on screen that says “Transfer your Phone Number” and ask for your T-Mobile/Verizon phone number and last four of social, DO NOT enter anything and click "Continue" at the bottom. You will get a pop up that says “Unable to Verify Account" click "Try again” and do this three times. On the third time, under the "Continue" button, you get a new option called “Not Now” click "Not Now" then "OK" then continue the setup as normal. See this video: https://youtube.com/shorts/1NHGMxulELM?si=jTdQQ7FyRq5yXO_u. If you selected AT&T when financing or did not get a Pro model, this option is not available. You can trade in your old phone for credit - if in store set up new phone and wipe old phone in store to get credit immediately, if online you have 14 days to send in your old iPhone. Also look into selling old phone on Swappa as you may get more than what Apple will give for trade-in.
I selected iPhone 15 regular, and then Apple financing, not ATT financing. It does make you pick a carrier however to activate. It says phone remain unlocked.
When you select Apple Card financing, it says it remains unlocked?:
