The amount you'll get for a Samsung Galaxy A6 Plus 2018 depends on the device model specifics like storage, its cosmetic and functional condition, whether it's carrier-locked, and any security features left enabled. ecoATM pays instant cash at the kiosk, and you can also get a price estimate online or in the app before you go in. ecoATM's pricing is backed by market data and often beats carrier trade-in values, but final offers are determined after the kiosk inspects the phone.

Start by getting an online quote or locking in a price in the ecoATM app, then prepare your phone by backing up data and removing accounts. Find a nearby ecoATM kiosk at participating retailers, place the phone in the kiosk so it can be examined by the diagnostic, and then accept or decline the cash offer. If you accept, ecoATM pays instantly on the spot in cash or via PayPal or Venmo.

Yes — ecoATM accepts Samsung Galaxy A6 Plus 2018 devices with cracked screens, dents, faulty batteries, or other damage, though condition will reduce the payout. Devices that can't be resold are routed to responsible recycling instead of being discarded, so you'll still keep e-waste out of landfills. If a diagnostic can't produce a cash offer at the kiosk, ecoATM will recycle the device responsibly.

Yes — ecoATM buys both locked and unlocked Samsung Galaxy A6 Plus 2018 phones, but carrier-locked devices typically receive a lower offer because lock status impacts resale value. "Carrier-locked" means the phone is tied to a specific carrier and may limit who can use it after resale, which is why unlocked phones often bring higher offers. ecoATM will still make a competitive offer for locked devices at the kiosk.

Back up any important data, sign out of your Google account (or Samsung account), and disable Factory Reset Protection before you come to the kiosk. Remove your SIM card and any external storage, charge the device, and then perform a factory reset so your personal information is removed. ecoATM also recommends powering on devices when possible, since devices that power on typically earn more.

You should factory reset and remove accounts before selling to protect your information, and ecoATM recommends doing so as part of preparing your device. ecoATM's processing center also uses data-wiping tools and attempts additional wipes where technologically possible before refurbishment or resale, though they advise sellers to erase their data themselves as well. These combined steps help reduce the chance your personal data remains on the device.

Devices that are in good enough condition are refurbished and resold to give them a second life, extending the phone's usable life and preventing unnecessary replacement. Devices that can't be resold are recycled through ecoATM's certified e-waste partners to recover usable materials and keep toxic components out of landfills. ecoATM reports that a majority of collected devices are given a second life, while remaining items are responsibly recycled.

The value of your Samsung Galaxy A6 Plus 2018 depends on its real condition and setup at the time you trade it in. ecoATM reviews storage, carrier lock status, screen and battery condition, whether it powers on, and any Samsung or Google account locks, so a working, unlocked, cleanly reset device can price differently than one with damage or locks still active. You can use the online estimate as a guide, then finish at the kiosk to confirm the offer. Once you approve it, ecoATM pays right away in cash or by Venmo/PayPal where available.
