Earth Day 2026: Trade In Your Old Tech for 5% Extra (Ends April 24)

This Earth Day, the tech sitting in your drawer is worth more — literally. Until Friday, April 24 at 11:59pm ET, use the code EARTHDAY5 at checkout to earn an extra 5% on top of your trade-in value, up to a $200 bonus, paid out however you want: cash, store credit at a SELLIT9 partner, or Aeroplan points toward your next flight.

This is our small way of saying thanks — and a bigger reminder that the phone, laptop or camera you haven't used in two years isn't junk. It's someone else's next upgrade.

Every trade-in keeps one more item out of a landfill

The world generated more than 60 million tonnes of e-waste last year, and less than a quarter of it was formally recycled. The rest ended up in landfills, exported to countries that don't want it, or sitting in drawers waiting for "someday."

Every item traded in through SELLIT9 avoids that path. Here's what actually happens when you send us something:

1. We assess it. You get an instant quote online based on model, storage and condition.
2. We refurbish it. Our partners wipe it, inspect it, replace parts if needed, and test it end to end.
3. We resell it. Refurbished phones, laptops and cameras go to another Canadian who wanted the same thing — for less money and without manufacturing a new one.

That's a win for your wallet and a small, real win for the planet. No e-waste, no new rare-earth mining, no shipping a brand-new unit across the ocean.

How to claim your Earth Day bonus

1. Start a trade-in at sellit9.com/sell to get paid in cash — or visit one of our merchant partners to trade in for something new using SELLIT9 Trade.
2. Apply the code EARTHDAY5 on the Trade-in Summary page before you submit.
3. Watch your offer go up by 5%, then hit submit.

Got a drawer full of old tech? You can trade in as many items as you want in a single submission — the 5% applies to your full trade-in value, capped at a $200 bonus per customer.

Three ways to get paid

Most trade-in programs give you exactly one payout option. We don't. Pick whichever actually fits your plans:

• Cash. An e-Transfer or direct deposit after we receive and assess your items. Instant-quote pricing, no negotiation. Best if you want the value in your bank account.
• Store credit. Trade through a SELLIT9 Trade merchant and apply your value directly to a new phone, laptop or camera at checkout. Best if you're already upgrading.
• Aeroplan points. Convert the trade-in value into Aeroplan points — useful if you're already saving toward a flight or a redemption partner. Best if you fly.

You choose the payout when you get your quote. The 5% Earth Day bonus applies to all three.

Earth Day 2026 FAQ

When does the Earth Day bonus end?

The EARTHDAY5 code expires Friday, April 24, 2026 at 11:59pm Eastern Time. Trade-in submissions need to be completed before then for the 5% bonus to apply.

How much is the 5% bonus worth?

Exactly 5% of your total trade-in value, capped at a $200 bonus. So a $1,000 trade-in earns you an extra $50; a $5,000 trade-in earns the full $200 cap.

Can I use EARTHDAY5 on multiple items in one submission?

Yes. Bundle as many items as you want in a single trade-in — the 5% applies to the combined total. One redemption per customer.

Does the Earth Day bonus work with cash and points?

Yes — the 5% bonus applies whether you choose cash, store credit at a SELLIT9 Trade merchant, or Aeroplan points.

What happens to my old phone or laptop after I trade it in?

It's wiped, inspected, refurbished if needed, and resold to another Canadian. Items that can't be refurbished are sent to certified recyclers — never to landfill.

Is SELLIT9 only in Canada?

Yes. SELLIT9 operates across Canada, with free Canada Post shipping included on every trade-in.
