Since we offer a higher payout for unlocked phones, the best way to confirm your phone's unlocked status is by contacting your service provider directly. This is the most reliable method to determine if your phone is carrier unlocked.
If your phone is locked, simply ask your service provider if they can unlock it before you sell it. Once unlocked, you can submit your device as unlocked to receive the highest payout possible.
If you have further questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to us anytime!
How to determine if my iPhone is Unlocked?
Open Settings > Tap "General" > Tap "About" > Carrier Lock
Next to Carrier Lock > if your device is unlocked, it will say "No SIM restrictions"
If it says SIM Locked or Carrier Locked, that would indicate your iPhone is restricted to a certain carrier.
