If there is an ecoATM kiosk in your local mall or other community location, it can be a convenient way to sell your old smartphone for quick cash. Though ecoATM transactions are relatively fast and easy, there are several things you should do before you sell your smartphone via a kiosk. Failing to do so can cost you money, time and even your personal identity. The following checklist details steps you should take before you sell your smartphone to ecoATM. <\/p>\n

ecoATM Prices: Good deal or not?<\/a><\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Once you know how much your smartphone is worth, you can then make an educated decision regarding whether to sell your smartphone to ecoATM, on the private market, to a Flipsy Trust Verified Store or to another buyer. You can also gauge whether ecoATM’s pricing is fair, or at least on par with buyback stores. In some cases, the price difference might be worth waiting to receive payment; in others, the difference might be negligible and offer justification for getting fast cash via ecoATM. <\/p>\n

Assess the condition of your phone<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The condition of your phone directly impacts its value, so you should assess its condition even before you check prices. Vendors have various definitions for what constitutes a given condition, but in general phones are graded on the following conditions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Phone Condition Guide<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
New<\/strong><\/td>\nBrand new, never out of the box<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Like New<\/strong><\/td>\nNo damage whatsoever<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Very Good<\/strong><\/td>\nWorks perfectly, but might have a couple of superficial scratches<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Find the value of your phone in any condition @ Flipsy<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Good<\/strong><\/td>\nShows normal wear and tear, but still works perfectly<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Fair<\/strong><\/td>\nWear borders on the excessive, but still functions properly<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Poor<\/strong><\/td>\nHeavy cosmetic damage, perhaps even a broken screen, but still works<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Broken<\/strong><\/td>\nThe phone does not work; parts and buttons might be missing or broken<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

ecoATM does not publish a condition guide on its website, but it does say it assesses condition based on things like age and damage. If you get an estimate on ecoATM\u2019s website, they\u2019ll ask three questions about your device\u2019s condition: does it power on? Does the screen light up? Are there any cracks? It’s a good idea to assess the condition of your phone before you sell it so you can determine whether a given offer is fair. Be honest with your assessment: it’s better to get more money than you expect than less. <\/p>\n

Remove all accessories<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Before you place your phone in an ecoATM kiosk, be sure to remove all accessories that could hinder the function of the machine. Those include screen protectors, covers, and cases – items you could potentially even sell on the private market if they’re still in good condition. Chargers and cables are likewise not required for ecoATM transactions. <\/p>\n

OnePlus<\/a><\/td>\nLG<\/a><\/td>\nMotorola<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Remove the SIM card<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Your SIM card connects you to your wireless network; if you leave your SIM card in and your phone is stolen, it’s possible for others to tap into your network and make purchases on your behalf. SIM cards can also be transferred between phones, allowing unauthorized users to use your wireless plan for their own calls, data and gaming – which could rack up fees. Even though ecoATM takes robust security measures, the best security is prevention. <\/p>\n

Remove the MicroSD card<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Your MicroSD card, if present, can contain sensitive data, photos and other information you don’t want to fall into the wrong hands. Protect yourself by removing your MicroSD card, which is reusable on other devices. <\/p>\n

Make a backup\/transfer your files<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

In addition to removing your SIM and MicroSD cards, you should make a backup of your smartphone and transfer it elsewhere: to a new phone, laptop or desktop computer, for example. You don’t have to save everything, but it’s important to save anything you’ll want to use again. Many phones allow you to sync directly to a new device. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Factory reset\/wipe your phone<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

This is the most important security measure listed: always factory reset your phone before selling it to ecoATM or anyone else. Your phone stores a lot of information about you that you don’t want to go public, including passwords, private photos, and even emails, so learn how to do a “hard factory reset” to completely wipe your phone’s data before selling. This single precaution alone can prevent a lot of headaches, including identity theft. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n

Manually clean your phone<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

This step isn’t absolutely necessary, especially since you’ll be dealing with a machine; however, it stands to reason that a clean phone looks more attractive and can improve the perception of condition to the human eye. <\/p>\n

Take your ID<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Make sure you have your driver’s license or other state-issued ID with you to sell your phone to ecoATM. The machine will scan your driver’s license to match your identity to your phone (it will also scan your thumbprint); then, it will snap your photo for remote live human ID verification before any money is dispensed. If you do not have your ID, you will not be able to use ecoATM. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Double-check your appearance<\/h2>\n

While it’s true that few of us are happy with our driver’s license photos, it’s also true that they serve as easy verification. Since an ecoATM staff member will verify that your live photo matches the one on your ID card, it’s a good idea to avoid appearing drastically different. Though rare, there have been cases in which users have complained they’ve been rejected for not matching their IDs. <\/p>\n

If you’re considering selling your smartphone via ecoATM, make sure you follow these steps to ensure you’re getting the best deal, to protect yourself against identity theft and to ensure a quick, smooth transaction at the kiosk. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
