Upon purchase of the iPhone under the financing scheme, please request the reseller to register the iPhone on Servify’s mServ App or Servify portal within 7 days of purchase. Upon successful registration, the buyback plan will be activated within 5 business days, subject to eligibility checks as deemed fit by Servify.

The Plan Activation and Expiry Date will be communicated to you at the time of loan disbursal.

- When can I exercise my Buyback option i.e. sell my original device for assured value?
- Within the plan term, if you wish to upgrade to a new iPhone by redeeming the buyback value as per the benefits offered by the plan, you must visit the nearest Apple authorized reseller store. Also, you can initiate redemption directly with Servify and a logistics agent will visit you to pick your registered device.
- The reseller shall initiate the buyback process by downloading the Servify App on the iPhone and follow the instructions provided in the Servify App to complete the quality check (“QC”) procedure and providing all the details asked in the process.
- Subject to you providing required details and subject to the iPhone passing the quality check (“QC”) specifications as listed below under “QC Specifications”, the buyback request shall be approved. Please note, an online quality/diagnostic check will be conducted while raising a buyback request. No test shall be skipped by you. If skipped, Servify may deny the benefits. If the iPhone does not pass the QC test, you shall not be eligible to avail the buyback plan.
- After the device diagnostics and QC is completed the final Buyback Value is shown. If the Buyback value is acceptable, you have to handover the iPhone and other accessories to the reseller, who will provide you the Buyback value benefit in your next iPhone purchase.
- You need to ensure that you close your loan with the financing partner before the iPhone is picked up for buyback execution. Servify assumes no responsibility towards the financing partner for the underlying loan taken by the borrower.
- You need to initiate the buyback execution before the end of 24 months, while the in-store buyback/doorstep pick up can be done up to 30 days from the end of 24 months. Once a pickup is scheduled, you need to ensure the device is handed over to the logistics partner. Any delay/cancellations of pick up can lead to rejection of the buyback plan redemption.
