What to check on your iPhone
Match your iPhone model
An iPhone, iPhone Plus, iPhone Pro and iPhone Pro Max from the same generation are different devices. Check your model name in Settings → General → About before selecting it.
Check storage and carrier
Use the storage capacity of your phone, rather than its remaining free space. Select the matching carrier or unlocked option in the estimate tool.
Describe its condition
Look over the screen, cameras, buttons and enclosure. Answer the condition questions for your model accurately; availability and estimated value depend on those answers.
How to sell your iPhone

Find your device
Find your exact iPhone in the tool above and match its configuration before answering the condition questions.

Answer the device questions accurately to see your estimated trade-in value.
Submit and ship
Review your offer and payout options. Follow the shipping instructions and use the prepaid label provided for your mail-in offer.
Inspection and payment
We inspect your device after it arrives. Payment follows inspection; your online estimate is not a completed payout.
Before you ship your iPhone
Prepare your device after reviewing your offer and shipping instructions. You do not need to erase it to check its value.
Back up your iPhone
Save your photos, messages and other data, and transfer what you need to your next phone before erasing this one.
Remove Find My and your accounts
Unpair any Apple Watch, sign out of your Apple Account and remove Activation Lock. Resolve any device-management restrictions before shipping.
Erase and remove your SIM
After your backup and account removal, erase all content and settings. Transfer your mobile service before removing an eSIM, and take out any physical SIM card.
Pack and label securely
Follow your offer’s packing instructions. Use a sturdy box and cushioning, attach the provided shipping label and keep your drop-off receipt.
iPhone trade-in questions
How much is my iPhone worth?
Your model, storage capacity, carrier and condition determine the estimate. Use the tool above for current options. The final value is confirmed after Plug receives and inspects your iPhone.
Where is the best place to sell my iPhone?
It depends on what you value. Carrier and manufacturer trade-ins usually pay in bill credits or credit toward a new device. Marketplaces can pay more, but you handle the listing, the buyer and the shipping risk. Plug is a mail-in buyback: get an offer online, ship free with a prepaid label, and choose store credit or a digital payout after inspection. No new purchase is required.
Who pays the most for my iPhone?
Offers change often and depend on your exact model, storage, carrier and condition, so compare a few current quotes for the same device. Check whether each amount is cash or credit, whether shipping is free, and whether you have to buy something to get it. Plug’s current “up to” values are listed on this page, and your exact offer takes about a minute.
Can I sell a cracked or damaged iPhone?
Check your exact model in the tool and select the condition that matches it. Some models offer a broken-condition option. Complete the offer process before sending a device.
Can I trade in a carrier-locked iPhone?
Choose the matching carrier option in the tool. A carrier lock is different from Activation Lock. An iPhone still linked to Find My or an Apple Account must have that lock removed before shipping.
Do I need to erase my iPhone before getting an estimate?
No. Check your estimate first. Before shipping, back up and transfer your data, sign out of your Apple Account, turn off Find My, and erase the phone. Transfer your mobile service and remove your SIM or eSIM as appropriate.
Is shipping free?
The prepaid shipping label provided for your mail-in offer is free to use. Pack your device securely and follow the carrier and drop-off instructions supplied with your label.
How can I receive my payout?
Choose Store Credit or select Choose Later to pick a digital payout method after inspection. Available options are shown in your offer and may include bank transfer, PayPal, Venmo, instant debit transfer and Cash App.
Do I have to buy a replacement device?
No. You can submit a buyback offer without placing a shopping order. If you choose Store Credit, you can use that credit toward a purchase.
When will I be paid?
Payment follows receipt and inspection of your device. Submitting an online offer does not trigger payment. Contact Plug if you need help with the status of your offer.
