en.Wedoany.com Reported - Gahtda (같다, represented by CEO Ko Jae-sung), a South Korean AI environmental resource data platform operator, has recently entered into a business partnership with Lightning Market (번개장터, co-represented by Kang Seung-hyun and Choi Jae-hyun) to promote the resource recycling of idle smartphones.

Through this collaboration, users can directly sell idle smartphones to Lightning Market via the Ppagi (빼기) application. After users apply for the "Second-hand Phone Price Confirmation and Acquisition Linkage Service" in the Ppagi app, Lightning Market's real-time pricing system, designed based on its vast second-hand transaction data, will immediately provide a quote.

Once users confirm the sale, Lightning Market will utilize its professional inspection infrastructure to complete the acquisition and transfer the settlement amount to the user's designated account. From application and inspection to settlement, the entire process is completed seamlessly within the Ppagi app.

Both parties stated that the goal of this partnership extends beyond second-hand asset transactions, aiming to recover and recycle mineral resources such as permanent magnets and rare earths from discarded landfill IT equipment, thereby creating circular value for social assets.

Ppagi is the largest environmental resource platform in South Korea. Based on a agreement network established with over 90 local governments nationwide, it has accumulated 2.3 million registered users and 430,000 monthly active users (MAU). The platform possesses its own nationwide waste discharge infrastructure, 6 million unique waste data points, and a patented AI object recognition technology.

Gahtda CEO Ko Jae-sung stated that returning discarded resources to society is a meaningful first step, and in the future, the company will leverage Ppagi's environmental infrastructure to create diverse social and environmental value.
