FAQ (Frequently asked questions)
Everything you need to know about our trade-in process and how we handle your devices.
Before selling your iPhone, sign out of your Apple Account and erase all content and settings. Properly erasing the iPhone disables Find My and removes Activation Lock, allowing the device to be inspected and activated by a new owner.View the guide:https://support.apple.com/en-us/109511
Before selling an Android device, remove every Google Account connected to the phone and then complete a factory reset. Removing the account first helps prevent Google Factory Reset Protection from locking the device after it is erased.View the guide:https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/17299872
Before selling your Apple Watch, unpair it through the Watch app on your paired iPhone. Unpairing the watch erases its contents, restores the factory settings, and removes Apple Activation Lock.View the guide:https://support.apple.com/en-us/108372
Already shipped your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch? You may still be able to erase the device and remove it from your Apple Account through Find Devices on iCloud.com. The device must be completely removed before it can be processed.View the guide:https://support.apple.com/guide/icloud/remove-a-device-mmfc0eeddd/icloud
In most cases, Google Factory Reset Protection cannot be safely removed remotely after the device has been shipped. You may remotely sign out of or erase the phone, but the device could still request your previous Google Account information during setup. Please remove all Google and Samsung accounts through the phone’s Settings before completing a factory reset and shipping the device.View Google’s remote-device guide:https://support.google.com/android/answer/6160491
We provide a pre-paid shipping label for your convenience. Once you accept our offer, you’ll receive detailed instructions on how to securely package and ship your device to us.

If you ship the wrong device, we’ll notify you immediately and provide options. You can either have the device returned or discuss an updated offer if applicable.
