For Your Clients
Get a Quote
Clients submit the devices they want to offload and receive clear, market-driven value.
Move the Devices
From individual shipments to larger device volumes, Phobio manages the logistics required to get technology where it needs to go.
Process & Erase
Devices are evaluated against documented criteria, and data is securely erased, with the documentation clients need for their records.
Recover the Value
Once devices clear processing, recovered value goes back to the client according to the program structure.
Put It Toward What’s Next
Recovered capital can help clients fund their next technology investment giving you another opportunity to support the next stage of their lifecycle.
"Phobio has streamlined the entire buyback process for our computers which means I don’t worry about coordinating logistics. Their friendly and responsive approach, and flexibility in working with our fully remote team, has saved me time and helped us reduce the cost of new machines."
What makes Phobio different?
Phobio combines technology and operational expertise to power trade-in and buyback programs from start to finish.
Rather than simply buying devices, we help businesses launch customized programs that fit their brand and customer experience. Our technology supports pricing, logistics, inspections, reporting, and payments, making it easier to recover value from used technology.
Does device value change over time?
Yes. Trade-in values can change as market conditions change.
Once you receive a quote, your trade-in offer is guaranteed for a period of time as specified in the program terms and conditions, provided the device you send matches the information you submitted.
How does Phobio protect my data?
Protecting data is built into every step of the buyback process.
As an R2v3 certified organization, we maintain secure chain-of-custody procedures and use NIST 800-88 compliant or equivalent data sanitization methods, with certified verification where supported. Before sending a device, we also guide customers through removing personal accounts and activation locks to help protect their information and ensure a smooth trade-in experience.
Put device value to work.
Whatever your goal, Phobio makes it simple to turn used technology into value you can use.
