Trade In Old Electronics for Costco Credit With Phobio
Costco’s Phobio-backed trade-in program lets you swap old electronics (phones, laptops, tablets, smartwatches, desktops, media players) for up to $2,550 in Costco shop card credit, with no membership required. You get an online quote by selecting make/model and device condition, can print a shipping label or request a box, wipe your data (Phobio will also delete it), and after a 3–5 business day inspection you receive payment on a Costco shop card usable in-store or online. Devices from multiple brands—Apple, HP, Dell, Lenovo, Microsoft, and others—are accepted, though large appliances aren’t eligible. The initiative promotes repurposing electronics to support safer mineral sourcing and reduce mining demand, while boosting your savings at Costco.
