Magento 2 trade-in: the old device becomes the down payment for the new one
With the Magento 2 trade-in module from Mironsoft your customers can submit an old device for purchase. You appraise it in the admin and make an offer, and once the device has arrived the customer receives a credit as a voucher or store credit for the next order.
Request form
With the Magento 2 Trade-In customers enter model, condition and photos in their account or on a page of its own.
Valuation table
A base value per model and deductions per condition answer produce a guide value.
Offer in the admin
Your team reviews the details and creates a binding offer with a validity period.
Customer acceptance
The customer confirms the offer by link and receives the shipping instructions.
Voucher or store credit
After inspection the amount is credited and can be used on the next purchase.
Status emails
Every step triggers an email, adjustable per store view.
Why merchants take back old devices and credit them
A credit for the old device lowers the barrier to buying new. The customer does not have to sell the old device alone, and you gain stock for refurbishing or spare parts. That is why merchants look for a Magento 2 trade-in that maps request, appraisal and credit in one continuous process.
Without a tool, buy-back runs through email chains, phone calls and spreadsheets. Offers get lost and vouchers are created by hand. With a Magento 2 trade-in, every case has a status, a deadline and an owner, and the customer can see at any time where the device stands.
Magento 2 trade-in request: submit an old device with model, condition and photos
Customers open the form in their account or on a page, choose category and model and answer questions about condition, such as display, battery and accessories. They upload photos directly. Which categories take part and which questions are asked is up to you in the admin. Guests can submit a request if you allow it.
- Category, model and condition questions configurable
- Photos with size and format limit
- Request for guests or only with an account
Appraisal and guide value: a Magento 2 trade-in table for models and conditions
For each model you store a base value, and for each condition answer a deduction in euros or percent. The customer’s answers produce a guide value, which your team adjusts after checking the photos. The table can be imported via CSV so that price changes for many models are loaded quickly.
- Base value per model, deduction per answer
- Guide value for the customer, final value after inspection
- Import and export the table via CSV
Magento 2 Trade-In offer and acceptance: the customer confirms and sends the device
In the admin you see incoming requests with photos and answers, review them and create an offer with an amount and a validity period in days. The customer receives an email with a link to accept. After accepting, they get shipping instructions, optionally with a note to erase personal data from the device first. Please review legal notes on buying from private persons yourself.
- Offer with amount, validity and message
- Accept or decline via link in the email
- Data erasure note configurable
Magento 2 Trade-In: credit as voucher or store credit for the next purchase
After the device has arrived and been inspected, you confirm the value and the module creates a voucher code or credits the amount to the customer account. If the condition differs, you adjust the amount and the customer is informed. The voucher is redeemed in the cart like a normal code. A payout to a bank account is not part of the feature set.
- Voucher code or store credit as the credit
- Adjustment with email if the condition differs
- Redemption in the cart like a normal code

How this differs from return portals, vouchers and payment modules
The Magento 2 Trade-In from Mironsoft accepts old devices the customer wants to get rid of. It is not a return portal for ordered goods, not a voucher module for marketing campaigns and not a payment service. The credit is created as a code or balance, not as a bank transfer.
The interface needs no additional library and fits Hyvä and Alpine.js. The status emails use the Magento email templates.
No download — personal setup instead
The Trade In module is not listed here as a ready-made download for self-installation. The purchase is a commission: after the purchase we get in touch, install the module in your shop and agree categories, valuation table and credit with you.
