How Same-Day Payment Works When You Sell to SellYourMac
The biggest fear when selling an Apple device is handing it over and waiting on payment. SellYourMac's flow is built so the money lands the moment our technician confirms the device matches your quote — usually 60 to 90 minutes door-to-door.
Step 1 — Get and accept your quote
Submit your device through the quote form. You'll get a locked AED price within 60 seconds. Choose your preferred payment method during checkout: bank transfer (IBAN), Liv. wallet, or e& money.
Step 2 — Free doorstep pickup
Our technician arrives in your slot — typically same-day in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, and most major emirates. They verify the model, IMEI/serial, condition tier and battery health on the spot.
Step 3 — Instant payment release
Once verified, payment is initiated from our finance system. Three options:
1. Bank transfer (IBAN) — credited within 30 minutes during banking hours via UAE FTS. 2. Liv. wallet — credited within 5 minutes, no fee, daily limit AED 500. 3. e& money — credited within 5 minutes, no fee, daily limit AED 500.
What if my device doesn't match the quote?
The technician will show you the issue (e.g. battery health 78% when you reported 90%, or undisclosed back-glass crack) and offer a revised quote on the spot. If you accept, payment proceeds. If you decline, the device stays with you and pickup is free of charge — no penalty.
Frequently asked
Is there any fee for Liv. or e& money payout?
No. SellYourMac covers all transaction fees. The AED amount you accept in the quote is exactly what lands in your account.
What if my mobile wallet limit is too low for the payment?
We split the payment across two methods (e.g. half Liv., half bank transfer) or release it in two daily tranches. Either way, the full amount is yours within 24 hours.
Do you pay cash on collection?
Yes — cash on collection is available for amounts under AED 200 in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. Above that, we default to bank transfer for safety.
