Can unlocked iPhone 15 ProMax be activated with a different carrier than one of the three major carriers that is selected in order to obtain 0% interest on Apple Card?

I want to purchase a new iPhone 15 ProMax with my Apple Card in order to have FREE monthly financing. I will be using Consumer Cellular to make the purchase. I understand, I have to select a carrier (Verizon, T-Mobile, ATT) to get the FREE monthly financing. I also understand the phone will arrive "unlocked." Does this mean I can pick any of the three above carriers but immediately use on Consumer Cellular instead?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 15

Why are you arguing this here? The are thousands of posts and comments across social media confirming what I wrote and what k_p95 wrote confirming you can use any carrier. Just look at the groups in Reddit, Facebook, Instagram etc. The iPhones are unlocked and unactivated. The eSIM is also unlocked, but the carrier you choose must support eSAM and iPhones. When you purchase the iPhone you’ll see a message to activate in a specific carrier. You just bypass the carrier activation process and activate it on the network of your choice. I just don’t see what your issue is.
