Value for a Samsung Galaxy S24 depends on its condition, storage capacity, carrier lock status, and any security settings that remain active. ecoATM pays instant cash at its kiosks and you can get an online price estimate before you go in, so you'll know the likely offer ahead of time. Because ecoATM pays cash (not just store credits), many sellers find its offers competitive with or better than carrier trade-in programs.

First, get an online quote on the ecoATM website to see an estimated value. Next, prepare your Samsung Galaxy S24 (back up data and remove accounts), then find a nearby ecoATM kiosk — ecoATM operates a large nationwide network of kiosks (6,000+ locations inside Walmart and other major retailers). At the kiosk you'll connect the device so it can run diagnostics, then you can accept the instant offer and choose payment (cash, Venmo, or PayPal) or decline and keep your phone.

Yes — ecoATM accepts Samsung Galaxy S24 devices with cracked screens, dents, faulty batteries, and other damage, though condition will affect the offer you receive. ecoATM will make an offer based on the device's condition; if a cash offer isn't available the kiosk will recycle the device responsibly. Selling a damaged phone to ecoATM gets you paid or ensures the device is handled in an environmentally responsible way.

Yes — ecoATM accepts carrier-locked Samsung Galaxy S24 phones, but carrier-locked devices typically receive a lower offer than fully unlocked ones because a lock can limit resale options. A carrier lock means the phone is tied to one wireless provider until any contractual obligations or unlocking processes are completed. ecoATM still evaluates locked devices and aims to provide a competitive offer based on market value.

Back up any photos, contacts, and other data you want to keep, then sign out of your Google account and any other accounts on the device. Disable Factory Reset Protection (FRP) if it's enabled, remove your SIM card, and perform a factory reset before you visit an ecoATM kiosk. ecoATM recommends these steps so the diagnostic is accurate and your personal data is protected.

You should factory reset your Samsung Galaxy S24 before selling it to remove your personal data. ecoATM also performs additional data-wiping steps on all devices before they're resold, and devices are wiped to industry standards as part of ecoATM's secure data-handling practices. Taking the preparatory steps above helps ensure your accounts and personal information are removed before the device changes hands.

If your Samsung Galaxy S24 is in good condition, ecoATM will refurbish and resell it so the device can be used again and its life extended. Devices that can't be resold are recycled through certified e-waste partners, and ecoATM reports diverting millions of devices from landfills. Selling your device to ecoATM helps keep toxic materials out of landfills and supports responsible reuse and recycling.

The trade-in value of your Samsung Galaxy S24 isn't fixed — it's based on factors like storage capacity, physical and functional condition, and whether the device is carrier-locked or unlocked. ecoATM gives you an instant cash offer at the kiosk (paid in cash or via Venmo/PayPal where available) rather than store credit, so you can see what your Samsung Galaxy S24 is really worth before you commit. Start with an online estimate, then complete a quick on-site diagnostic at a kiosk to lock in your final trade-in value.
