Selling your iPad
Trade in your old iPad in a few minutes. Here’s the process end-to-end and what to do before you post it.
Get an instant quote
Head to sell-my-ipad, pick your model, generation, storage, and Wi-Fi-vs-Cellular, and answer a few condition questions. The price is guaranteed for 14 days from your order date.
Look at the back of the iPad — the model number is etched in tiny text near the bottom. Match it against Apple’s identify-your-iPad page to get the right generation.
Prepare your iPad before posting
- Back up to iCloud or your computer. Once we reset, the data is gone.
- Sign out of iCloud: Settings → Apple ID → Sign Out. Removes Activation Lock — without this we can’t process the trade-in.
- Remove the SIM (Cellular models only).
- Factory reset: Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPad → Erase All Content and Settings.
If we receive an iPad still tied to iCloud, you’ll have a 14-day grace period to remove it remotely from icloud.com. After that we process at £0 — so please double-check.
Send it to us
We send a free Enviropack with bag, label and instructions. Drop at any Post Office. Keep the receipt as proof of postage. Higher-value iPad Pros go on a tracked, insured service.
We test it
Our team runs a full inspection within 1–2 working days: cosmetic check, screen, touch, every button, every sensor, battery, Wi-Fi/Cellular, and a full reset. If everything matches your description we pay out; if it’s different we send a counter offer.
