MISSION

Better than new

At Afterlife, we’re on a mission to redefine what “new” means. By bundling gently-used, previous generation iPhones with the benefits we need most, we’re proving that used can be better than new.

When we consider our tech's entire lifecycle, our combo of iPhones and benefits make memberships are truly better than new. Reuse is a small difference that means the world to us.

One used phone won’t save the earth—that’s not the point. Afterlife exists to offer the choice to make responsible purchases without compromising on quality. The choice to vote with our dollar for a future that values resourcefulness over consumption. The choice to make the most of what we have—for ourselves, our peers, and the generations to come.

Join us in making the most of what we have. Choose better than new.

Impact measured

By reusing previous-gen iPhones, we avoid up to 83% carbon emissions versus new.

Every phone that stays in use is one less phone being made from scratch, saving precious resources and keeping our carbon footprint in check.

When you join Afterlife, you're joining a movement to value resourcefulness over consumption.
