Frequently asked questions

What people ask us most

How much does it cost to cash a check?

The fee depends on the amount and the type of check. We tell you the exact cost before we run the transaction, no surprises. Message us on WhatsApp with the amount and we'll confirm right away.

How long does a phone repair take?

It depends on the repair and on the part. Many are ready the same day. Diagnostics are free, and we tell you the cost and the timeline before we start.

Can I pay for my phone over time?

Yes. We work with Acima Leasing: approvals run from $500 to $5,000 and you pay in installments. You can apply yourself from your phone, in a few minutes. Approval is handled by Acima, not by the store.
