  • Do I need to include the charger and accessories with the trade-in?
    No, we only need the device without any accessories in order to complete your trade-in once we receive it. If we do receive any charging cables or accessories in the shipment we will not consider its value towards your trade-in and will be recycled.

  • How can I track the status of my trade-in process?
    When selecting your device(s) to trade-in, we'll ask for your email which will be used to send you progress updates and allow you track your device during the entire trade-in process. You can log-in to view the status of your trade-in or you can view it here.
  • Can I cancel a trade-in after sending my device?
