Trade in devices
Here's how it works
1
Pick your new phone
  • You choose a device for $999.
  • 2
    Check trade-in eligibility
  • AT&T says: If your old phone’s value is $290 or higher, you qualify for the full $1000 promo credit.
  • Your old phone's trade-in value = $290 → so you qualify.
  • 3
    Send in your old phone
  • AT&T gives you a prepaid label or lets you bring it to a store.
  • You ship/trade-in your old.
  • 4
    Get promotional credits (not instant)
  • AT&T doesn’t give you $1000 upfront.
  • Instead, they spread the $1000 over your monthly bill credits.
  • Example: $1000 ÷ 36 months = about $27.77 off per month.
  • 5
    Pay the balance monthly
  • Phone price = $999.
  • Monthly installment (36 months) = about $27.77.
  • Credits = $27.77/month.
  • Your bill for the phone = $0/month (since the credits cancel it out).
