These programs have also gained popularity here in Brazil.
With some services offered, some are different from others, have characteristics and inherent differences between them, as well as unique and specific operating rules. We will address them below.
For example: your old device does not need to be completely intact, as if it had never been used. The cell phone may have some scratches, marks of use, cracks on the screen or scratches, as it is still possible to receive some discount. Of course, the better the conservation, the greater the discount on the new smartphone.
Check out some of the programs of this type available in our country.
Offered by Claro, it provides a discount on the purchase of a new device, depending on the condition and model of your old device. To use Claro Troca, just go to one of the brand's stores and say that you want to use the service. When this is done, the seller evaluates the old device, consulting the amount of the discount to be granted. In case of approval, the customer receives a voucher.
It can be used in that same store to purchase a new device or even a smartwatch, which is also included in the service. It is important to highlight that it is not necessary to contract any postpaid plan provided by the company, nor is it necessary to have purchased the old device at Claro.
Another plan available in the Brazilian market for those who want to save money when changing their smartphone is Trocafone. It works very similarly to other services of its kind. To use it, the customer needs to take the device to one of the 38 Smart Troca partner stores, which are several.
When the phone is presented, some data will be evaluated, such as the validity of the IMEI, the condition of the device, etc. The company claims that “marks from use, some scratch or crack on the screen are not problems that disqualify” the old cell phone from obtaining a discount on the next one.
Finally, this service is a combination of iPlace – which is a large Brazilian reseller of the brand's products – and Apple itself. It is aimed at people who want a new iPhone, but still accept devices from different brands. The evaluation of old devices can be done digitally. It is also possible to send the device by post or go to a company unit.
It should be noted that the service delivery online can only be done by users who will be using an old iPhone to get the discount. The subject must inform the zip code in which he is located to check the availability of the service. In addition to the CEP, it is necessary to inform six questions about the conservation of the device.
Only iPhones purchased in Brazil are accepted by BuyBack, so it needs to have the Anatel seal. In addition to Apple smartphones, some Apple Watch models can also be seen on the same service.
