Frequently asked questions.What is Google Store trade-in?
It’s our trade-in program that can help you get the latest Pixel phone from Google. If your trade-in device is eligible for credit, you can offset the purchase price of a new one. You can get all this done online at the Google Store, making it convenient for you to complete your transaction all in one place.
How does it work?
We’ve made it easy to trade in an eligible device online. During your purchase of a new Pixel phone, select “Start trade-in” on the “trade-in” screen. Just answer a few questions regarding the brand, model, and condition of your device. We’ll provide an estimated trade-in value. If you accept the trade-in estimate online and complete your purchase, we’ll arrange for you to send your old device to our trade-in partner. You will receive your new phone before returning the old one, which gives you time to set the new one up.

Once our trade-in partner receives your old device, we’ll inspect it and verify its condition matches what you told us at the time of purchase. If everything checks out, we’ll credit your original purchase method. If the condition of your device doesn’t match what you described, a new estimated trade-in value will be credited back to you unless during your purchase you chose to receive your old phone back without credit if its condition doesn’t match what you described.

How will the value of my old phone be credited to me?
A credit card refund is only available if a Pixel phone is purchased.

Refund is based on (and paid after) the phone received matches the description you provided at time of estimate (manufacturer, model, whether it turns on, whether it has screen damage, etc). The refund will be issued to the form of payment you used for the order. If the trade-in refund exceeds the cost of your new Pixel phone: The excess amount will be provided as Store Credit. Phones sent for trade-in must be received within 30 days of receiving your new phone, provided the purchased device has not been returned during that time.


Do not send your device if it has a damaged or swollen battery. If the inspection results show swelling or other physical damage to the battery, the device will not be eligible for credit and cannot be returned due to safety issues and local regulatory requirements.
How much will I get for my trade-in?
It depends on the device, model, manufacturer, and condition. Answer a few questions accurately, and once we receive the device within the specified time frame and verify its condition, you’ll most likely receive the full amount of the estimated refund. Keep in mind that our trade-in partner needs to receive your device within 30 days of receiving your new phone, and the condition needs to match what you told us.
