About
Swapped is a circular fashion app that allows users to swap their preloved occasion items by swiping left and right! Users start their free-trial by uploading preloved items onto their profile and then swiping left and right on other Swappers' items. When two swappers swipe right on each other a match is made!
We're striving to decrease the 92 million tonnes of clothing (one truck/second) that goes to landfills annually. Swappers receive fantastic value for money, as they only pay for delivery and a small monthly subscription starting at £4.99 and are able to swap multiple items ranging from £25-£200+.
