About Cashify:
Cashify is a private company founded by Amit Sethi, Mandeep Manocha and Nakul Kumar. It is a platform that enables its customers to sell, repair, recycle and manage their phones at the best prices
According to the company, the idea to create such a platform originated back in 2013 when one of the 3 friends (founders) planned on selling his existing Samsung phone to buy a new iPhone. However, he found the process difficult and he could not obtain the best price for his phone. Since then the team (Cashify) has done a great job in bringing their service to the market.
Today Cashify’s business is not limited to phones, as it also deals in other electronic devices like smartwatches, tablets, laptops, desktops etc.
Further Cashify plans on selling its software solution (SaaS) to companies in countries like the United States, Israel, Sri Lanka, and more.
