Rozetka launched a program to exchange old smartphones and tablets for certificates
The Ukrainian online store Rozetka launched its own trade-in called “Rozetka Exchange” – the retailer began to accept old tablets, smartphones and smartwatches in exchange for a certificate with a nominal value of the remaining value of the gadget.
Used equipment can be brought to the nearest reception point Rozetka Exchange at the drop-off point or store (the list and addresses are available on the initiative’s website). An on-site expert carries out diagnostics, assesses the condition of the device and issues a certificate for the appropriate amount, which can then be used to purchase any goods marked “Rozetka Seller” (except alcohol, tobacco products and gift certificates).
In addition to the old smartphone, tablet or smartwatch that is subject to exchange, you must have an identity document with you to draw up the act of acceptance and transfer.
Currently, the following are participating in the program:
- smartphones — Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi and other brands;
- tablets — Samsung, iPad Apple, Lenovo and other brands;
- smartwatches — Apple, Samsung.
Do I need to remind you once again that you need to prepare the device in advance – transfer personal information and content to a laptop or computer, then delete it from the device, log out of all your accounts and perform a factory reset. A specialist in the store can help with all this, but then it will take a little more time.
The site also has an online calculator that allows you to pre-estimate your gadget. It shows the maximum amount — provided the device is in perfect condition. That is, the more scratches on the case/screen and the worn battery, the lower the final cost.
There are more and more exchange programs that are a good alternative to selling the device on the secondary market, and this is quite a positive trend.
