The brand

Our story

From Berlin to Montpellier: the story of a simple conviction that became a European premium refurbished electronics company.

The beginning

Built on a conviction: refurbished can be premium.

In 2020, CYKERO was born in Berlin with a simple and radical idea — refurbished electronics have no reason to be inferior to new when treated with the same level of rigor.

What set CYKERO apart from the very beginning was its refusal to outsource critical stages. Sourcing, diagnostics, repair, certification, resale : everything is handled in-house.

“Refurbished should not be a default choice. It should be an informed choice.”

— Bichoi Metias, CEO & co-founder of CYKERO

Our DNA

Three principles that have never changed

Excellence cannot be outsourced

Le contrôle qualité, la réparation, l'effacement, la certification : everything is handled in-house. C'est la condition non négociable pour tenir une garantie 24 mois et un SAV < 2 %.

Proof over promises

Every device is tracked through blockchain. Every commitment is auditable. An after-sales service rate below 2% is proven, not claimed.

European ambition from day one

Being born in Berlin was no coincidence. CYKERO built its model to operate at a European scale — not to get there later.
