We're Actively Buying New and Used Cellphones

1] Walk Into a PayMore Store

No appointments and no shipping labels. Bring your old device or old cellphone to a PayMore Store in Canada, and in a few minutes you'll walk out with real cash.


2] Instant Cash on the Spot

Our tech experts appraise your phone using our proprietary pricing engine to make sure you get top dollar, paid immediately. No waiting for a cheque in the mail, no e-transfer delays, no "price adjustments" after your phone ships.


3] Data Wiping Guaranteed

Every device we buy gets wiped on the spot, right in front of you. We securely erase your data and help remove any signed-in accounts before the phone leaves the counter.

The Best Place to Sell Your Phone in Canada

Got an old phone sitting in a junk drawer? A cracked device you replaced months ago? A non-working backup nobody wants? Bring it in. We buy phones in any condition because we always need the parts. No tech is too weird, too ancient, or too broken. PayMore also supports cell phone recycling when a device can’t be resold.

Which cellphone brands do you accept?

We buy phones from every major manufacturer, including:


  • Apple iPhone (all models)
  • Samsung Galaxy (S Series, Note, Z Fold, Z Flip, A Series)
  • Google Pixel
  • OnePlus
  • Motorola
  • Sony Xperia
  • Huawei
  • Xiaomi
  • LG (legacy models)
Do you accept phones from any Canadian carrier?

Yes. We accept phones from every Canadian carrier, including Rogers, Bell, Telus, Fido, Koodo, Virgin Plus, Freedom Mobile, Chatr, Lucky Mobile, Public Mobile, and Videotron. Unlocked phones are welcome too. What we can't accept is a phone that's been reported lost or stolen, or that's flagged on the national blacklist.

How much is my cell phone worth in CAD?

Pricing depends on model, storage, condition, carrier lock status, and Canadian demand. Our proprietary pricing engine updates daily, giving you competitive prices in CAD with no hidden fees.

Still Have Questions? Read our FAQs

Have a broken or damaged cellphone?

We buy cracked, water-damaged, bent, and otherwise impaired phones every day, including any broken phone with usable parts.The cash offer depends on the model, the damage, battery health, and whether the internal components are still usable. If you can turn the phone on, sign out of any cloud accounts before you come in.

Can I sell a phone that's still on a contract or financing plan?

We can buy carrier-locked phones, but we can't buy phones that still have a balance owing to a Canadian carrier or that are flagged on the national blacklist. Check with Rogers, Bell, Telus, Fido, Koodo, or whoever you're with to confirm your device is paid in full. You can also look up your phone's IMEI on the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association (CWTA) website to check its status.

Do you buy phones from outside Canada?

Yes, as long as the phone is unlocked, compatible with Canadian networks, and hasn't been reported lost or stolen in its country of origin.

Do I get paid in Canadian dollars?

Yes. All offers and payouts are in CAD. Our pricing reflects the Canadian market, so you won't lose value to exchange rates or cross-border fees.

Do I have to pay tax when I sell my phone?

No. You're the one getting paid, so there's no GST, HST, PST, or QST charged to you on the sale. If you sell phones regularly as part of a business, talk to a Canadian tax professional about reporting.

Any tips for getting top dollar?

A few things help:


  • Bring the original box, cables, charger, and accessories if you still have them
  • Charge the phone before you come in so we can test it
  • Remove screen lock passcodes and sign out of iCloud, Google, or Samsung accounts
  • Wipe off fingerprints and dust from the screen and back
  • Bring the phone in soon after upgrading to a new device, since newer models may hold stronger resale value
  • Visit PayMore to review your offer in person and decide if it’s the best deal for your device


A little prep time on your end usually means a bigger offer on ours.

Why become a PayMore customer?
  • Top dollar for your devices in Canadian cash
  • Data wiping guaranteed, performed on-site in front of you
  • Friendly, locally owned and operated stores
  • Fully licensed and insured under Canadian municipal, provincial, and federal regulations
