Why should you sell your broken iPad to ecoATM?

Apple devices — including iPads — are known for being sturdy products that stand the test of time. That said, no electronic devices last forever. Whether your iPad has a cracked screen, water damage, or other functional or cosmetic imperfections, ecoATM offers an efficient and environmentally friendly way to responsibly recycle it.

Thousands of people across the country trust us to handle their broken iPads. Here’s why:

  • Instant Payment: You’ll never have to wait for a check or bank transfer to clear. With ecoATM, you can get instant cash on the spot (or payment via PayPal or Venmo). Get money toward a new iPad or Apple Watch when you sell us your used iPad today!
  • A Hassle-Free Process: Why list your old iPad online, handle shipping requirements, and negotiate with potential buyers when you can enjoy a smooth, convenient transaction with ecoATM?
  • Eco-Friendly Recycling: Reduce electronic waste by allowing ecoATM to resell or recycle your used iPad. Help us keep iPads out of landfills!
  • Thousands of Handy Kiosks: With more than 6,000 kiosks available nationwide — in shopping malls, retail centers, big-box stores, and more — you’re never too far away from the nearest ecoATM location.

How does ecoATM compare to other iPad resale options?

Of course, ecoATM isn’t the only place where you can buy and sell iPads, iPhones, and other old tech devices. That said, we genuinely think we’re the best place to sell an iPad, as we often offer the most cash while providing a seamless selling experience.

Online marketplaces like Facebook Marketplace or eBay can take a long time to complete transactions, as you’ll need to wait for bids from potential buyers, ship your device, and wait for the buyer to confirm the transaction. Plus, there’s always the risk of scammers to deal with.

If you use a trade-in program with Apple or your wireless carrier (such as T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, etc.), you often get paid in store credit instead of cash. Pawn shops are another option, but they often pay low rates and require you to negotiate with employees before making the sale.

In short, you can get the most money and convenience when you use ecoATM. With thousands of iPads sold and a proven track record of success, why sell your broken iPad anywhere else?

Will ecoATM still buy my iPad if it’s nonfunctional?

Unlike the vast majority of competitors, we’ll accept your broken iPad in nearly any condition. It doesn’t even need to power up! The Apple Trade In buyback program is one of the only other options we’re aware of that accepts broken iPads, and even then, you only get store credit on your Apple account instead of the cold, hard cash we offer.

We accept iPads with the following types of damage. Even if we won’t buy them, we’ll still accept them for recycling purposes!

  • Cracked or Damaged Screens: Whether it’s just a small chip or a full-on spiderweb of cracks, we’ll still take your iPad.
  • Water Damaged: If your iPad went for an unexpected swim, don’t worry! We’ll accept it for recycling, and we might even offer cash!
  • Power and/or Battery Issues: Even if it won’t turn on at all, ecoATM is still interested in buying or recycling your iPad.
  • Cosmetic Wear and Tear: Scratches, dents, and scuffs won’t necessarily stop you from cashing in on our offers.
  • Software and Hardware Problems: Touchscreen sensitivity issues? Button malfunctions? Hardware failures? These issues are no problem for ecoATM!

If you’re unsure whether ecoATM will buy your used iPad or accept it for recycling, you can get a pricing estimate on our site or visit your nearest kiosk for a free evaluation. We buy and sell iPads in a variety of conditions, so it’s always worth checking to see what we can offer!

FAQs

What should I bring to the ecoATM kiosk when selling my broken iPad?

Other than the iPad itself, you must bring a valid government identification card (such as a driver’s license) to complete our ID verification process. Otherwise, you won’t be able to finish the transaction. While we don’t offer to buy iPad accessories, you can bring them with you for recycling purposes. You can simply drop off your unwanted cases, cords, chargers, and more in our kiosk’s accessory bin, and we’ll either reuse or recycle them for you.

How much will ecoATM pay for my broken iPad?

There are quite a few variables at play when determining the value of your iPad. In most cases, the most important factors are the iPad model, resale value, and condition. Some broken iPads can be restored to working order — these iPads are the ones we’ll pay the highest prices for, as we can resell them as certified refurbished devices. Even if your iPad is too broken to restore, we’ll always offer to recycle it on your behalf.

What other electronics does ecoATM buy and sell?

We buy and sell all sorts of smartphones and tablets from both the Mac and Android ecosystems. For instance, we accept Apple iPhones, Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets, Google Pixel phones, and some devices manufactured by LG, Motorola, and ZTE.

What makes ecoATM such an environmentally friendly business?

We keep smartphones and tablets out of landfills and give them a second life by refurbishing them and finding new owners for them. Quite a few used electronics still have plenty of life in them, especially if they’re refurbished. Unfortunately, far too many of these devices end up in landfills instead of in the hands of new owners. This can lead to harmful chemicals leaking into the air, soil, and water, not to mention the unnecessary and excessive production of new devices. When you buy and sell devices with ecoATM, you’re doing your part to support a happier, healthier planet for everyone!

What security measures does ecoATM have in place?

Here at ecoATM, we prioritize your safety and security above all else. We monitor and ID-verify every transaction, helping prevent theft and fraud. We also scan law enforcement databases to make sure we never buy stolen, lost, or blacklisted devices. With ecoATM, you can focus on buying and selling top-quality electronics, knowing that every transaction is safe and legitimate.
