Sell your used Toast POS hardware.
Handhelds, terminals, kitchen displays, kiosks, card readers, printers and networking. Owned outright, any generation Toast still supports.
Can you sell used Toast hardware?
Yes, if you own it outright. Toast hardware runs only Toast software, and each device needs its own Toast subscription to stay active, so the next owner is another Toast restaurant. Equipment leased through Toast Easy Pay belongs to Toast until the lease is bought out, and retired models such as the Toast Go 1 cannot be reactivated.
That makes the details matter. Before we quote, we check three things with you: whether each device is owned or leased, which generation it is, and whether Toast still supports it. Then we make one written offer for everything that can go back into service. Read the full explanation in our guide to Toast's rules.

A written offer
Every quote covers your whole list, item by item, in writing. You get it within 1 business day.
Straight answers
If something is leased, retired or cannot be reactivated, we tell you before you ship it, with the source.
A second life
Working equipment goes back into service at other restaurants. What cannot be reused is recycled, not landfilled.
Three things to check before you sell
Owned or leased?
Equipment on Toast Easy Pay belongs to Toast until it is bought out. How the buyout works.
Still supported?
The Toast Go 1, Elo V1 and devices on Android 7.x or 8.0 are retired and cannot be reactivated. Identify your hardware.
Payments uploaded?
Every handheld and terminal should show zero in the Queues tab before it is reset. Reset steps.
What affects your offer
- Generation and support. Whether Toast still supports the model. Retired devices cannot be reactivated.
- Ownership. Owned outright, or leased through Toast Easy Pay and not yet bought out.
- Condition. Screen, touch, battery and housing. Say whether each unit powers on.
- Completeness. Chargers, docks, stands, power supplies and attached readers.
- Quantity and sets. Matched sets, such as terminals with their guest displays, are easier to place.

Selling Toast hardware: questions and answers
Answers drawn from Toast's own support documentation, linked on this page. Toast's policies can change; check your contract for anything specific to your account.
Can you sell used Toast POS hardware?
Yes, if you own it outright. Toast hardware runs only Toast software, and each device needs its own Toast subscription to stay active, so the next owner is another Toast restaurant. Equipment leased through Toast Easy Pay belongs to Toast until the lease is bought out, and retired models such as the Toast Go 1 cannot be reactivated.
Will a used Toast device work for the next restaurant?
Yes, on a Toast account with a subscription for that device. Toast lists "the device was purchased secondhand" as a normal reason a device has no subscription, and the fix it gives is buying one in Device Hub. Toast also says reusing hardware at a new location often needs a factory reset first.
Can Toast hardware be used with Square, Clover or another POS?
No. Toast says third-party apps cannot be installed or run on Toast devices, and its payment devices can only process cards through Toast. That is why used Toast hardware goes to other Toast restaurants rather than to restaurants on a different system.
I lease my Toast hardware through Easy Pay. Can I sell it?
Not until you own it. Under Toast Easy Pay you pay to use Toast-owned equipment for the lease term, and ownership passes only when you buy it out. Toast handles buyouts through [email protected]. Once you hold title, send us the list and we will quote it.
Which Toast devices can no longer be reactivated?
Toast lists the Toast Go 1, Elo V1, older Samsung, Acer, Azpen and OnePlus tablets, POSPAD, Teamsable, MR18 and Open Mesh access points, the MagTek eDynamo, and any device on Android 7.x or 8.0 as no longer supported. Toast says these need a new device to be purchased.
Do I need to factory reset my Toast devices before selling?
Make sure every payment has uploaded first: Toast says the Queues tab should show zero before a reset. Then follow Toast's reset steps for each device. If you are not sure, tell us in the quote and we will walk you through it before anything ships.
Does Toast buy back or trade in old hardware?
Toast does not run a general cash buyback in the US. It offers a recycling program for returned, damaged, retired and legacy hardware, and it sells certified refurbished Toast Go 2 handhelds, which shows used Toast hardware does go back into service.
