You have things you never use. So does everyone in your hostel.
The old way
- A good textbook, a pair of sneakers or a speaker sits in a corner for a whole session.
- Selling means haggling with strangers, bank transfers that go missing and meeting in odd places.
- WhatsApp groups bury your post in ten minutes.
The Bartermart way
- Post the item once. It stays listed until it swaps.
- People offer you something from their own listings. You pick the offer you like.
- Meet at a known campus spot, check the item, both tap Confirm. Done.
Everything a swap needs, nothing it does not.
01
List in a minute
Add real photos, pick a category and condition, write two lines. Three listings are free, and the slot comes back when the item swaps.
02
Offers, not haggling
Tap I like this on any item and choose one of your own listings to offer. The owner sees the pair side by side and accepts or declines.
03
Chat that moves the swap along
Every offer opens a chat with the item pinned at the top. Reply to a message, react with an emoji, and agree on a time without leaving the app.
04
Meet at a campus swap point
Swaps happen at the SUB, the inside of the main gate or the campus bus stop. Both of you confirm in the app and the trade is recorded.
Four taps from listing to swap.
Post what you have
Photos, category, condition, a short description. Ten credit points per listing, refunded when it swaps.
Swap in daylight, on campus, after you have checked the item.
- āThree designated swap points per campus. Never a private residence or off campus.
- āReal photos only. AI-generated and borrowed images get listings removed.
- āID verification earns a shield badge on your profile and in chat.
- āReport any issue from the exchange page. We review every report.
What students say after their first swap
Placeholder quotes written for layout. Replace with real testimonials from the pilot before launch.
āI had a chemistry textbook from 200 level doing nothing. Listed it on a Tuesday, swapped it for a desk lamp at the SUB on Thursday. The chat kept the whole thing in one place.ā
āThe part I did not expect was the confirm step. We both tapped it, it showed the swap in my history, and my free slot opened up straight away.ā
āI offered a pair of sneakers for a Bluetooth speaker. The owner saw both items side by side and accepted in ten minutes. No back-and-forth about price because there is no price.ā
