RingConn Trade-In Program (2026): Up to $90 Off When You Upgrade

RingConn’s trade-in program lets you swap almost any smart wearable for a discount on the Gen 3 smart ring. Unlike most trade-in programs, it accepts competitor devices — not just RingConn’s own rings.

Quick facts:

  • Up to $90 off for existing RingConn owners
  • Up to $60 off for Oura Ring, Galaxy Ring, Ultrahuman Ring, Apple Watch, or Galaxy Watch owners
  • Eligible devices must be returned within 30 days of receiving your new ring (check official terms for current requirements)
  • Discount applies at checkout on the RingConn Gen 3

How the trade-in program works

Step 1: Go to the trade-in page

Visit the RingConn trade-in program page and select your current device from the list.

Step 2: Verify ownership

You’ll need proof that you own the device:

  • Order confirmation email or receipt
  • A photo of the device
  • Account showing the registered device (for RingConn owners)

Step 3: Get your discount code

After verification, you receive a discount code to use at checkout when purchasing the RingConn Gen 3 on Amazon.

Step 4: Keep your old device

RingConn doesn’t require you to return the old device. You keep it as a backup, give it to a family member, or sell it secondhand.

What the Gen 3 costs after trade-in

ScenarioFinal price
Gen 3 retail price$349
RingConn owner (max trade-in $90)$259
Oura/Galaxy Ring owner (max trade-in $60)$289

For comparison, the Oura Ring 4 costs $349 plus a $6/month subscription ($72/year). The Gen 3 has no subscription fees — ever. See our RingConn Gen 3 review for the full feature breakdown.

RingConn vs Oura vs Samsung: trade-in comparison

RingConnOuraSamsung
Official trade-in programYesNo (recycling only)Yes (via Samsung.com)
Accepts competitor devicesYesN/ASamsung devices only
Max discount$90N/AVaries

Subscription after upgradeNone$6/month requiredNone

Oura doesn’t offer a trade-in program — they only have a Device Recycling Program that gives no discount on a new ring. Samsung’s trade-in only accepts Samsung devices and requires you to ship the old one back.

RingConn’s program accepts any brand. Check RingConn’s official trade-in page for current device eligibility, return requirements, and discount values.

Is the trade-in worth it?

Worth it if:

  • You own an Oura Ring and want to stop paying $6/month — the trade-in plus no subscription saves you $132+ in the first year alone
  • Your current ring’s battery has degraded (common after 1–2 years of daily wear)
  • You want Gen 3’s new features: blood pressure trends, vibration alerts, 12-day battery life
  • Not sure which generation is right for you? Compare Gen 3 vs Gen 2

Skip it if:

  • Your current ring works fine and you don’t need new features
  • You bought your ring less than 6 months ago
  • You’d rather sell your old ring privately for more than the trade-in value (Gen 2 still sells for ~$150–200 on eBay)

Tips to maximize your savings

  1. Stack with promotions: Check if RingConn is running any seasonal sales alongside the trade-in — see our discount code guide for current deals
  2. Order the free sizing kit first: Gen 3 uses a different sizing system than Gen 2 — don’t guess your size
  3. Consider Care+: RingConn’s new protection plan covers accidental damage and may be worth it for active users

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to send my old ring back? No. RingConn’s trade-in doesn’t require you to return the device. You keep it.

Can I trade in a broken ring? Contact RingConn support. The standard program requires a functional device, but they may make exceptions.

Can I combine trade-in with other discounts? Check the terms at checkout. Trade-in discounts have sometimes stacked with pre-order pricing in the past.

How long does verification take? Typically 1–2 business days after submitting your proof of ownership.

Is the trade-in program permanent? RingConn hasn’t confirmed an end date, but trade-in values and terms can change. If you’re planning to upgrade, sooner is safer. Check where to buy Gen 3 for current availability.
