How does it work?
We Chat
Reach us via our submission form below, or in-person at our booth. Include clear pictures and your desired loan amount. These all help us to better understand your needs.
We Evaluate
Before we ask you to submit anything, we’ll come to an initial agreement on the market value of your card(s). We can do this from the clear pictures that you submit or in person at our booth.
You Choose the Terms
After agreeing on a market value, you tell us what loan term best fits your financial needs, 3/6/12 months, (this dictates your rate) and we sign the paperwork.
We Take Custody
Ship us your card(s), insured and with tracking, or leave them with us at our booth. We seal your items in tamper-proof packaging and store them for safe-keeping at our climate-controlled facility.
You Get Your Money
It’s your money, use it how you want to. After we confirm the receipt of your items and their condition, we remit payment to your bank account via Zelle or PayPal.
You Make Monthly Payments
Packyderm will send you monthly invoices via PayPal so that you can pay off your loan in quick, easy installments.
We Ship Your Items Back
When your final payment clears, we send you back your card(s), insured and with tracking.
