UNITED WE REPAIR COALITION
Building the Future of Tech Care Together
September - November 2025: Founding Member Period
Official Program Launch: January 2026 - See Our Timeline Below
Our Vision:
Unlock a $60 Billion Industry Future
The tech care industry is driven by 30,000+ independent businesses serving 174 million Americans who damage 317 million smartphones each year. Consumers already spend $21.3 billion on repair—but together, we can build this into a $50–60 billion industry. And that's just smartphones—the potential is even greater when you add computers, tablets, and other repairable tech.
+ 5 US Territories
International expansion starting 2026
*And that's just smartphones. Add computers, tablets, and more—the potential skyrockets.
Repair businesses come and go. Without a nonprofit trade association, stability is out of reach.
Four Strategic Priorities for Industry Growth
Every successful industry has a nonprofit trade association fighting for their interests. Big Tech spends millions annually through CTIA, TechNet, and other groups to fight against repair rights. It's time we fight back with equal force.
Google Ad Access
Secure fair advertising opportunities for verified repair professionals, following the successful locksmith industry model. 73% of customers search "repair near me" first.
Right to Repair Advancement
As the Right to Repair movement gains momentum nationwide, TCA supports these efforts by amplifying awareness, uniting the industry, and ensuring repair businesses have a strong voice at the table.
Tariff Relief for Repair Parts
Advocate for exemptions that reduce costs and improve supply chain reliability for the 30,000+ independent repair businesses across America.
Enhanced Parts Availability
Work with manufacturers and distributors to improve access to quality replacement components for 317 million smartphones and other devices. And find new sources and new technology for distribution.
How We Solve Problems Together
The tech care industry's ONLY nonprofit trade association, representing 1,700+ members across 50 states. If Apple needs nonprofit trade associations to win, so do you. Independent? Yes. Alone? Not anymore.
Proven Track Record
TCA is the only 501(c)(6) nonprofit trade association exclusively representing the tech care industry, with proven access to major tech companies and federal legislators.
Industry-Wide Representation
From repair shops to parts suppliers, training companies to warranty providers - everyone who depends on a thriving repair ecosystem.
Fighting Big Tech Opposition
While CTIA, TechNet, and other Big Tech groups spend millions fighting us, we provide member-driven advocacy focused on YOUR success.
