PayMore is revolutionizing the way consumers and businesses in Kansas City buy, sell, trade, and recycle electronics.

PayMore is revolutionizing the way consumers and businesses in Kansas City buy, sell, trade, and recycle electronics. This international franchise, based in New York, has brought its innovative business model to the KC Metro area with locations in Overland Park and Lee’s Summit.

PayMore offers a unique service: they purchase old electronics at a fair price. Customers can visit a retail location or arrange for a business representative to visit their office. And for those devices that don’t qualify for purchase, PayMore provides free recycling. For businesses, PayMore also offers certified data erasure, ensuring sensitive information is securely wiped before disposal.

“We’re excited to bring PayMore to the Kansas City market,” shares Paul Kushnir. “Until now, options for selling electronics were limited, and standard recycling often came with a fee. PayMore changes the game by providing free e-waste recycling and an opportunity for consumers and businesses to reclaim value from their old devices. We’re here to disrupt the industry.”

The Kansas City and St. Louis PayMore franchises are locally owned by SPEEKS Technology, led by a father-and-sons team. Their ambitious plans include expanding to six locations in the KC Metro and seven in the St. Louis Metro over the coming years.

Why Join the KC Chamber?
For PayMore, joining the Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce was a strategic move to connect with the region’s vibrant business community. “We joined to share our value proposition and to learn from the many amazing business leaders at the Chamber,” says Kushnir. “The events and access to top business experts have been incredibly valuable.”

The Best Part of Doing Business in KC
With a proven track record of starting and exiting three nationally operating businesses in Kansas City, PayMore firmly believes in KC’s unique advantages for entrepreneurs. “Kansas City offers a supportive community, a talent pool focused on growth, and a strong emphasis on local ownership,” Kushnir explains.

The Overland Park PayMore location exemplifies this success, setting a company record for its first full month of operations. With such a strong start, the Kansas City expansion is on track to achieve many more milestones.

What You Should Know About PayMore
PayMore is more than just a place to buy, sell, or recycle electronics—it’s a community-driven business making a tangible impact. Each location injects hundreds of thousands of dollars annually back into the local economy by purchasing electronics.

Additionally, PayMore is dedicated to sustainability. In its first two months, the Overland Park location alone processed nearly 20,000 pounds of e-waste, keeping it out of local landfills. With plans to grow to six locations in the KC Metro, the environmental and economic benefits will only multiply.

PayMore Kansas City: Where Value Meets Sustainability
PayMore is proving that business success can go hand in hand with environmental responsibility. By turning e-waste into economic opportunity, this innovative company is helping Kansas City residents and businesses reduce waste, reclaim value, and support the local economy.
