Batteries Plus, a leading specialty battery retailer, announces a cost-effective and environmentally responsible incentive aimed at helping consumers save money while prolonging the life of their iPhones. Customers who recycle their old iPhone battery at any Batteries Plus store will receive $35 off the purchase of a replacement iPhone battery.
This incentive comes amidst excitement surrounding Apple’s latest iPhone release, offering an alternative for those tempted to upgrade their phone solely due to a fading battery. Rising costs and inflation are significantly impacting purchasing decisions, particularly when it comes to spending money on new technology. In fact, 63% of Americans say they won’t buy a new phone this year due to inflation, according to a recent WalletHub survey. The recycling incentive offers a budget-friendly solution to extend the life of existing devices. While the iPhone 16 Pro costs around $1,000, a new phone battery costs as low as $24.99 after the Batteries Plus discount.
“We all know the frustration when our phone battery starts to lose its strength and we find our phones constantly sitting on a charger throughout the day,” said Jon Sica, Chief Operating Officer for Batteries Plus. “But a brand-new phone doesn’t need to be the answer. Simply replacing the battery can keep a cell phone running at its full potential, while also saving our customers hundreds of dollars.”
Not only is replacing a phone battery cost-effective, but recycling the spent battery is a crucial step toward reducing electronic waste. By taking advantage of this offer, consumers are contributing to a greener planet while ensuring their devices perform at their best. This incentive furthers Batteries Plus’s commitment to making battery recycling accessible and mainstream. Earlier this year, Batteries Plus launched a battery recycling initiative in collaboration with the Green Bay Packers, and backed by a $7 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy.
