Grading explained

OUR GRADING EXPLAINED

Since 2016, Enable (trading as In the Click) have decommissioned over 50,000 business devices. We take pride in our quality testing process which may include data wipe/factory reset, diagnostic testing, upgrade of software and we also grade the cosmetic condition of the devices as well for devices sold online.

Proceeds from the sale of the devices help Enable to create jobs for local community experiencing barriers to work. Read more about our programs here.
