Typically Lower Market Value
Every box you send creates a chain of value—from saving your team hours of sorting and research to putting genuine OEM parts back on the road at prices more drivers can afford.
We Sort & Test It
Identifying a mixed batch of key fobs takes time and expertise. Our team identifies, sorts, tests, and evaluates what you send against current demand and inventory needs to determine what they’re worth.
You don’t have to figure it out. We do.
We Pay You
Your unused OEM key fobs may still have monetary value. We evaluate what you send, determine current market value, and typically process your shipment and send payment within 5–10 business days after it arrives.
You send the fobs. We handle the evaluation and payment process.
We Refurbish It
When an OEM key fob can be reused, it can be tested, refurbished, and prepared for another life. Fobs and materials that can’t be reused are responsibly processed and recycled whenever possible.
Reuse first. Recycle when necessary.
The Next Driver Saves
Keeping usable OEM key fobs in circulation can give the next customer access to genuine OEM quality without always paying the cost of a brand-new replacement.
One recovered key fob can create value twice—first for the business that sells it, and again for the person who needs it.
The Full Circle Partnership is backed by measurable experience across the OEM key fob lifecycle.
There is no single fixed price for every used OEM key fob. WBKF evaluates each application using current demand, supply, technology, condition, and vehicle fitment before determining value.

Demand is one of the biggest factors in determining what a used OEM key fob may be worth.
Some vehicle applications have a stronger replacement market than others. When more drivers, locksmiths, dealers, or automotive professionals need a particular OEM key fob, that demand can support a higher market value.
Demand can also change over time as vehicles age, ownership patterns change, and replacement needs shift.
What this means for you: Two key fobs that look similar may have very different values because one application is currently needed more than the other.
Value depends not only on how many people need a key fob, but also on how many usable fobs are already available.
A key fob with strong demand may still have lower value when there is already plenty of inventory available.
WBKF evaluates current supply alongside replacement demand and our existing inventory needs when determining value.
What this means for you: A fob’s value can change even when the key itself has not changed.
Yes. Different key fob technologies have different demand, testing requirements, refurbishment needs, and replacement costs.
Standard keyless remotes, remote head keys, flip keys, FOBIK keys, and smart/proximity keys are not valued the same way.
The technology alone does not determine the final price, but it is an important part of the evaluation.
What this means for you: A newer-looking smart key is not automatically valuable, and an older fob is not automatically worthless.
Condition can affect how much work is required before an OEM key fob can be reused.
We consider things such as housing condition, buttons, missing components, visible damage, functionality, and refurbishment requirements.
Normal wear does not automatically make a key fob worthless.
What this means for you: Don’t throw a fob away just because it looks worn. Send it in and let our team evaluate it.
The exact application is often more important than the appearance of the key fob.
We look at information such as vehicle year, make, model, FCC ID, part number, manufacturer, frequency, and compatibility to determine exactly what the key fob fits.
Two remotes can look almost identical while working with completely different vehicles—and those applications can have very different market values.
What this means for you: You don’t need to identify every key fob yourself. WBKF handles the research, identification, and evaluation.
There isn’t one fixed price for every used OEM key fob. Its current value is determined by the combination of demand, supply, technology, condition, and application .
That’s why WBKF evaluates the actual key fobs you send instead of relying on a generic or outdated price list.

Prices change as supply, replacement demand, vehicle technology, inventory levels, and refurbishment requirements change.
Sometimes, but not always. The exact application, identification, condition, supply, and current demand determine value.
Once your shipment arrives, it usually takes 5–10 business days for our team to identify, test, evaluate, and process the key fobs and send payment. Processing time can vary based on shipment volume and complexity.
