Background
FavTrip was looking for a unique and low-lift way to increase store traffic and deliver added value to customers. Competition from other c-stores meant finding a simple, scalable solution that could both attract new customers and fit seamlessly into existing operations.
Objectives
FavTrip wanted to offer a convenient, value-added service that brings customers inside stores and provides them with instant cash to spend. They needed a compact, low-maintenance solution that made the most of limited floor space and increased revenue potential without internal staffing, maintenance or operational complexity.
Solution
ecoATM kiosks were deployed at select locations in 2025, offering customers instant cash for their used devices.
Since launch, they’ve seen the following benefits:
- Convenience: Customers have a simple and secure way to sell their used phones in under seven minutes.
- Added Revenue: ecoATM’s generate consistent, supplemental income and put cash in customers’ hands to spend in-store.
- Effortless: There’s no store training, maintenance or staff involvement required to host a kiosk.
- Minimal Footprint: ecoATM’s take up less than 9 sq. ft. in stores and fit within their existing floor plans.
Results
- $100,000/kiosk/year paid to consumers
- 35 kiosk interactions/store daily
- 12 devices collected/day/kiosk
- 46% of kiosk visits lead to device collection + payout
“ecoATM gives our guests a fast, safe way to turn old phones into instant cash in minutes, with many shopping with us right away. It required no training or maintenance, fit into our layout, and became effortless, incremental income.”
– Babir Sultan, President and CEO, FavTrip
