We buy working iPhones from the iPhone 11 onward, plus the iPhone SE. The quote tool only shows the storage and carrier options that exist for your model, and it checks eligibility before showing a price.
iPhones have more ways to be ineligible than other devices: Find My, Activation Lock, carrier blacklists and unpaid balances. We ask about each one up front, and check every IMEI before sending your shipping label.

Value
How much is my iPhone worth?
A model name alone doesn't set the price. Two iPhones from the same year can be worth very different amounts.
We base offers on current resale demand for your exact configuration, then adjust for condition and anything that doesn't work.
Check my estimated valueiPhone trade-in value: what affects your offer?
Every offer starts from these factors. Your answers in the quote tool cover each one.
Model and year
Newer and Pro models hold the most value.
Storage
More storage raises the offer at every step.
Carrier lock
Unlocked phones earn more than carrier-locked or non-U.S. models.
Condition
Scratches and dents lower the offer gradually.
Screen and back glass
Cracked glass is the most common deduction.
Face ID or Touch ID
Biometrics that don't work are a large deduction.
Battery health
Below 80% or a service message reduces the offer.
Genuine parts
An "Unknown Part" message in Settings lowers the offer.
Carrier
Unlocked, carrier-locked or non-U.S.?
Unlocked iPhones can be resold to anyone, so they earn the most. Locked and non-U.S. models are still eligible at a lower offer.
UnlockedSettings > General > About shows "Carrier Lock: No SIM restrictions". Full offer.
Locked to AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile or another U.S. carrierEligible if fully paid off with a clean IMEI. A smaller offer than unlocked.
Non-U.S. modelMade for another country (different A-number, often with a physical SIM tray). Eligible at a lower offer.
Unpaid balance or blacklistedNot eligible. Pay off the balance with your carrier first.
IMEI and blacklist
Why we check every IMEI
The IMEI is your iPhone's unique 15-digit number. Carriers use it to block phones reported lost, stolen or for non-payment.
We check it before sending your shipping label, so a blacklist problem never turns into a surprise after you've shipped.
- Find your IMEIDial *#06#, or open Settings > General > About and scroll to IMEI.
- Enter it in your quoteWe check the 15-digit format instantly to catch typos.
- We run a blacklist checkBefore your label is sent, we confirm the iPhone isn't blacklisted or financed.
Battery health
How battery health affects your offer
Check Settings > Battery > Battery Health for the Maximum Capacity.
Normal (80% or higher)No deduction.
Below 80%, or a service messageA partial deduction, because the battery needs replacing before resale.
Not sureNo deduction up front. We check it during inspection.
Swollen battery or lifting screenNot eligible for an instant quote. Don't charge or ship it; email us first.
Eligibility
Is my iPhone eligible?
We buy iPhones that work, belong to you and can be resold. If a mandatory check fails, we don't make an offer, and the quote tool tells you why before you ship anything.
What we buy
We buy functional Apple devices in a variety of conditions, including devices with normal wear and eligible damage, as long as they remain suitable for resale.
- Used, older or unwanted iPhones that power on and work
- Scratches, scuffs and minor dents
- Some display issues, if the picture is fully usable
- Repairable physical damage on a working iPhone
- Single devices and business, school or office inventory
What we don't buy
We do not purchase completely non-working, blacklisted, lost or stolen, Activation Locked, counterfeit, or otherwise restricted devices that cannot be legally and reasonably resold.

- Company or school devices still under remote management
- Counterfeit devices or ones missing essential parts

How we grade your iPhone's condition
Choose the grade that matches the outside of your iPhone. Working problems are asked separately, so you're never marked down twice for the same thing.
No scratches or scuffs on the screen, back or frame.
Light scratches you only notice up close. No cracks or dents.
Visible scratches or scuffs, or small dents on the frame.
Deep scratches, heavy scuffs or dents. Still fully working.
Bent frame or heavy dents. Still powers on and works.

Data security
How to wipe and prepare your iPhone before you sell
Do these steps before you pack it. They protect your data and make sure your iPhone passes the eligibility checks at inspection.
We securely erase every device we receive, even if you've already done it. If something's still signed in when it arrives, we'll contact you before going further.
- Back up your iPhoneUse iCloud Backup, or back up to a Mac or PC.
- Unpair your Apple WatchIf you have one, unpair it in the Watch app first so it isn't locked to this iPhone.
- Sign out of your Apple AccountSettings > your name > Sign Out. This turns off Find My iPhone and Activation Lock.
- Remove your SIM or eSIMTake out the SIM card, or ask your carrier how to transfer or remove your eSIM.
- Erase itSettings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Erase All Content and Settings.
- Pack it securelyUse the original box if you have it, or wrap it in padding inside a small sturdy box.
Sustainability
Give your Apple device another life
Selling a working device keeps it in use longer and reduces unnecessary electronic waste.
Reuse
Most devices we buy are cleaned, tested and resold to someone who needs one.
Refurbishment
Where a repair makes economic sense, devices are refurbished before resale.
Responsible recycling
Parts that can't be reused are recovered or recycled through e-waste recyclers.
Selling your iPhone: what to know
When to sell
iPhones lose value steadily, with bigger drops after each new lineup is announced. If you've already upgraded, selling sooner usually means a higher offer.
Repairs and genuine parts
Recent iOS versions show repair history in Settings > General > About > Parts and Service History. Genuine Apple repairs don't reduce your offer. A part flagged as "Unknown Part" does, because it can affect features and resale.
How inspection works
When your iPhone arrives, we confirm the model, storage and carrier, check that it's signed out with Find My off, run its IMEI, test the screen, Face ID or Touch ID, cameras, audio and charging, and check battery health. If something differs from your answers, we email a revised offer with the reasons. If you decline a revised offer, we ship your device back at no cost to you.
Shipping an iPhone safely
Remove any case and SIM card, wrap the phone in padding, and use a small sturdy box. Don't ship an iPhone with a swollen battery.
Selling several iPhones
Retiring company phones? A bulk quote covers every model together. Make sure each one is released from your MDM first.
Sell my iPhone: frequently asked questions
How much is my iPhone worth?
It depends on the model, storage, carrier lock, condition, battery health and whether everything works. Use the quote tool for an estimate for your exact iPhone.
Which iPhones do you buy?
iPhone 11 through iPhone 17, including Pro, Pro Max, Plus, mini, Air and 16e models, plus the iPhone SE (2nd and 3rd generation).
Do you buy carrier-locked iPhones?
Yes, if the phone is fully paid off and the IMEI is clean. Locked phones earn a little less than unlocked ones.
Do you buy iPhones that aren't paid off?
Not yet. Phones with a carrier balance can be blacklisted later. Pay off the balance first, then get your quote.
Do you buy blacklisted iPhones?
No. An iPhone reported lost, stolen or for non-payment can't be used on U.S. networks or resold.
Do you buy non-working iPhones?
No. We do not currently purchase completely non-working devices, including iPhones that won't power on or have no working touchscreen.
Do you buy iPhones with a cracked screen?
Yes, if the picture and touch still work. Cracked screens and back glass reduce the offer.
Why do you need my IMEI?
We check every IMEI for blacklist and finance status before sending your label, so there are no surprises later.
How do I get paid?
You choose PayPal, Zelle or Bank transfer (ACH). We pay within 2 business days after your device passes inspection.
