THE MISSION
We are Pandas and our mission is to give consumers the most value out of their smartphone with zero hassle by empowering them to sell it in the fastest, safest, and easiest way possible. More than 2 billion working smartphones end up forgotten at the back of some drawer after you upgrade to the latest and greatest. But there is a solution as simple as trading them in and getting paid while participating in the circular economy. So, why aren’t people selling their old phones, we wondered? This is where Pandas comes in. Inspired by humans and powered by tech, we make sure that the frustrating experience of selling your smartphone is now as quick and easy as using an ATM near you. Our proprietary A.I. technology in the Pandas kiosks allows us to evaluate a smartphone’s condition, from the smallest nick to serious technical issues, with unprecedented accuracy. Oh, and we pay users on the spot, straight to their bank account. We’re on a journey to become the most convenient trade-in channel for smartphones globally, with an available kiosk near you, wherever you are. We work with trusted partners, including tech retailers, telcos, and supermarket chains to make sure everyone can sell their smartphone in the most easy, fast and safe way.
