BoxTrade, Beyond the Box‘s trade-in program, is spotlighting its “Trade-In Made Better” promise to make phone upgrades more accessible for Filipino customers. It centers on converting old mobile devices into savings on new phones through in-store evaluation, guided assistance, and a clear estimated value chart for selected models, including the iPhone 16 lineup.
Easy and Hassle-Free Trade-In Process
BoxTrade lets customers bring in eligible older devices and apply their assessed value directly to a new phone purchase to reduce upfront costs. The program operates inside Beyond the Box stores, where trained specialists evaluate devices and explain how the trade-in amount will be credited at checkout.
Customers get transparent assessments and competitive valuations which reduce uncertainty compared with private reselling.
The trade-in program is designed as an easy, hassle-free step-by-step in-store experience, from device evaluation to final transaction. In-store staff will be there to manage checks and documentation while keeping customers informed about the resulting trade-in value.
- Step 1: Visit any Beyond the Box Store
- Step 2: Get your trade-in value and choose your payment option for the difference
- Step 3: Trade-in your old device and upgrade to a new iPhone
With trade-ins done on-site, BoxTrade aims to remove the logistical burden of listing and negotiating for old devices. Customers can focus instead on selecting and setting up their next phone during a single store visit.
