One iPad class set. One point of contact.
From procurement through repair to data-secure recycling — smartmod looks after your institution’s entire device fleet. Reliable, documented, GDPR-compliant.
What schools and authorities know about device fleets.
No replacement devices
A broken iPad is immediately missing from the lesson. We minimise downtime — with loan devices where needed.
Tight budgets
With repair instead of replacement, schools save up to 80 % compared with buying new.
Parent communication takes time
Via a self-service portal, parents can handle their own repair themselves if they wish.
Individual repairs are hard to track
In their personal dashboard, schools keep an eye on every repair at all times.
Data protection
Pupil data must stay protected — during repair and disposal alike, GDPR-compliant.
Sustainability
Repairing instead of discarding avoids electronic waste and CO₂ — measurably (see the calculator).
One partner for every one of these tasks.
Repair of large fleets
Whole class sets repaired reliably and by priority — quickly back in the lesson.
Bulk shipping or collection
Collect faulty devices in a transport box — bulk shipping or collection, whichever suits.
A fixed point of contact
One dedicated contact for your institution — instead of changing responsibilities.
Transparent costs
Clear prices, with framework agreements and fixed price lists on request.
Self-service portal
Schools and parents report damage themselves and see the status in the dashboard.
Purchase by invoice
Handling for public-sector clients and companies by invoice.
Claims handling that keeps schools’ backs free.
Collect faulty devices simply and securely.
With our reusable transport boxes you collect faulty devices simply and securely. When a repair is due: close the lid, attach the seal and hand it to the driver.
The status always in view.
Through our online portal you always have the status of your repairs in view. So you know exactly when your devices will be ready for use again.

Repair with manufacturer authorisation.
As an authorised workshop — for Apple and Samsung among others — we have the ideal conditions to repair your devices reliably in our own lab in Frankfurt.

Connected in education and digitalisation.
Anyone equipping schools has to understand how education is procured, financed and run. That is why we are members of three associations where the education industry and the public sector meet.
didacta Verband
Member · active in the digital committee
The association of the education industry brings together manufacturers, publishers and service providers around nurseries, schools, vocational training and continuing education — and is the sponsoring body of didacta, Europe’s largest education trade fair. We are members and work in the association’s digital committee: exactly where it is about the digital equipping of schools and their day-to-day operation.

Bündnis für Bildung
Member
This non-profit association brings IT companies, publishers, start-ups and educational institutes together with federal states, municipalities and school authorities to shape the digital transformation of teaching and learning — vendor-independent, with a focus on standards and reference solutions for digital education infrastructure. Our membership means, for you: we know public-sector requirements for procurement, data protection and operation at first hand.

EdTech Verband
Member
The EdTech Verband represents the providers of digital education technology in Germany towards politics, administration and school authorities. As a member we are connected where the framework for digital education is shaped — from procurement through interoperability to data protection.
