Back Market and Visible by Verizon Announce U.S. Partnership
Refurbished Tech Marketplace to Feature Exclusive Visible Plan Offer in Time for Holiday Shopping Season
Today, Back Market, the leading global marketplace for Verified Refurbished tech, announced a new partnership with Visible, Verizon’s award-winning app-based wireless service, offering unlimited data, talk and messaging. The exclusive offer was unveiled by Back Market Founder and CEO, Thibaud Hug De Larauze and Visible Managing Director, Jeremy Bolton during a Paris press conference.
Available now, every smartphone purchased on Back Market will come with access to a $20/month offer on the Visible plan for the first twelve months, with standard rates applying afterwards. This is a savings of $60 per line on the Visible plan for the first year, and if you factor in the cost of a new device compared to the cost of a Verified Refurbished device on Back Market, the savings are even greater. The combined value of these two brands makes access to high-quality technology and an exceptional wireless experience more affordable than ever.
“Together, Back Market and Visible are reaching the next generation of consumers who care about sustainability and getting the best deal,” said Thibaud Hug De Larauze, Founder and CEO, Back Market. “We launched this partnership to continue to provide U.S. customers more convenience, affordability, and access to refurbished tech that offers the same factory-quality devices as new, at far less cost and impact on the environment. Visible shares our commitment to growing the circular economy for consumer technology and understands that to build a sustainable business you need to start with an amazing customer experience.”
“We are excited to partner with Back Market to give U.S. customers a new option that’s not only affordable, but environmentally-friendly,” said Jeremy Bolton, General Manager, Visible. “We’ve always been committed to bringing our customers the best, most innovative, and most accessible digital wireless service, and now, we’re proud to do that in a way that limits the impact of technology on the environment.”
In partnership with Visible, Back Market’s customers are within a click of best-in-class wireless service, including unlimited data on Verizon’s 5G and 4G LTE networks. With this exclusive offer, Back Market continues to be a one-stop-shop for all consumer electronic needs, especially during the upcoming holiday shopping season as shoppers look for quality, affordable devices and trusted mobile plans, all while promoting sustainability through its circular model.
Details of the exclusive Visible plan offer on Back Market include:
- $20/month for 12 months followed by standard rates for the Visible plan
- Unlimited data, talk & text on Verizon’s 5G & 4G LTE networks
- Coverage of 99% of the U.S. population

These savings come with no trade off in quality. Customers on Back Market always receive a 30-day money-back guarantee and a one-year warranty when purchasing devices, and this year J.D. Power recognized Visible for delivering the best purchase experience among value mobile virtual network operators.
Back Market’s mission is to lower the environmental impact of tech by extending devices lifespans. Customers can purchase high-quality refurbished electronics and devices that are better than new at a fraction of the price.
