Customer experience plays an essential role in the success of retail businesses. Trade-in programs provide a great way to introduce new services and revenue streams and enhance the customer experience while promoting sustainable values.
Consumers benefit by offsetting the cost of new devices and getting value from old mobiles by trading them for a new or refurbished device. Getting a voucher or store credit against the sold devices keeps consumers within your store for new revenue opportunities.
Trade-ins at retail stores make upgrading to a new device more affordable and open the door to upselling possibilities. Consumers can leverage their savings to explore additional offerings and enhance their shopping experience.
In addition, expanding the lifespan of old devices is also good for the environment and can support the sustainability goals of your business.

Highly targeted and localized trade-in campaigns are also dynamically managed via the tool.
Delight consumers with the best, fair, and guaranteed trade-in offers
The trade-in service flow provides automatic device model detection and comprehensive condition analysis. This ensures accurate device make and model recognition (MMR), grading, and reduces variance in the trade-in process. PiceaOnline also detects user accounts and locks and ensures the device is not lost or stolen before it is accepted for trade-in.
The trade-in values can be offered from your pricing catalog or through our trade-in partner ecosystem. So, even if you don’t have an existing trade-in partner, you can benefit from our trade-in partner integrations and preferred platform partnerships.
Consumer conversion can be optimized by offering the highest trade-in value through multiple trade-in partners. You can also enhance the appeal of trade-in offers by bundling additional benefits through OEM or device-specific campaigns. The device grading is also flexible; you can apply your existing grading criteria or create a new one.
Improve customer experience & in-store productivity with wireless solution
As a web-based solution, PiceaOnline empowers your retail sales associates to offer an enhanced trade-in experience. No investments in laptops are needed as your sales personnel can serve customers wherever in the store using tablets. This facilitates the service business integration into everyday sales actions.
Once the trade-in offer is accepted, the trade-in transaction can be completed by your sales staff. Data can be transferred to a new device and securely erased from the old device. All trade-in transaction details can be pulled into your business systems for follow-up.
