Who Can Shop with Human-I-T Online

At Human-I-T, we’ve always been driven by a mission to shrink the digital divide and promote digital equity. We believe that access to technology is a fundamental right, not a privilege, and that it forms the foundation of social equity in our increasingly digital world.

In the past, our store was primarily focused on serving low-income individuals by providing them with affordable, high-quality refurbished electronics. While this model allowed us to make a significant impact, we realized that we could do even more.

We recognized that digital equity isn’t just about providing access to those who can’t afford it—it’s also about enabling everyone to participate in the digital economy in a way that aligns with their values. We saw an opportunity to engage a wider audience in our mission, not just as beneficiaries, but as active contributors.

That’s why we’ve redesigned our online store to be accessible to everyone. Now, anyone can support our mission by buying laptops and tablets from Human-I-T Online. Moreover, every purchase directly supports our operations, helping us connect even more people to digital opportunities online while reducing new consumption and the demand that generates more e-waste.

So, when you purchase a device from us, you’re not just getting a great deal—you’re also making a statement. You’re saying that you believe in digital equity, that you care about reducing e-waste, and that you choose to support a more sustainable and equitable future.

Understanding the Different Types of Human-I-T Memberships

Navigating the world of technology can be complex, but at Human-I-T, we’re here to simplify it. That’s why we’ve introduced the Human-I-T Account, a tool designed to make your shopping experience smoother and more personalized. But what exactly is a Human-I-T Membership, and who can create one? Let’s break it down.

There are two types of accounts that individuals can create on our online store: Standard and Member. Non-profit organizations can also make an account with Human-I-T.  

Standard Membership

This is the default account type, open to everyone who visits our store. 

When you become a Human-I-T Member, you can save your info for faster checkout later, track your orders, and be the first to know about new deals and savings opportunities. However, it’s important to note that Standard accounts do not have access to certain benefits. For instance, you won’t be able to purchase hotspots, enroll in low-cost internet plans, or access benefits through the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). 

But don’t worry, you’ll still have access to a wide range of high-quality, affordable devices, and every purchase you make will support our mission of promoting digital equity and reducing e-waste.

Gold Membership

Gold Memberships are a bit more exclusive and are designed to cater specifically to eligible individuals. We understand that affordability can be a significant barrier to accessing technology, and we’re committed to breaking down that barrier. That’s why we created the Human-I-T Gold Memberships, which lets income-qualified individuals and non-profit organizations access greater benefits when shopping with us. 

Gold Members can purchase hotspots, enroll in low-cost internet plans, and access benefits through the ACP. Plus, you’ll have Member-exclusive access to even steeper discounts on the price of some laptops and tablets. It’s our way of ensuring that those who need it most can access technology at a price they can feel good about paying. 

Now, remember: creating a Human-I-T Account isn’t mandatory to shop with us, but it does offer a more personalized and rewarding shopping experience. Plus, it’s a great way to support our mission of promoting digital equity and reducing e-waste.

In the next section, we’ll delve deeper into the specific benefits each account type offers. Stay tuned!
