What is Kwop

The match was always the hard part.

Kwop is a barter-first marketplace for the stuff and skills you already have, built for city kids who'd rather trade than spend. We fixed the part that always broke barter: finding the person who wants your thing and happens to have the thing you want.

discover → match

Swipe, comment, get picked

Browse like it's Depop, match like it's a dating app. Swipe what's nearby, comment to claim it, and the owner picks the trade they want back. Every listing says what it's after, so you never waste a DM.

goods + skills

Trade things or talent

Closets are just the start. Swap a coat, a textbook, a film camera, or teach guitar in exchange for a tattoo. If it's yours to give, it's yours to trade.

trust

Reputation that follows you

Ratings and referrals will follow every trade, listings need front-and-back photos, and account checks are built to keep repeat flakes from spinning up a new login. You meet on campus, you swap. No money, no shipping.

§02 · How it works

Three tracks, one trade.

01

Post it

Snap what you're over and post what you'd take for it. Clothes, gear, furniture, even a skill. Your call.

02

Match

Browse what's nearby, comment on what you want, and line up a trade with someone a few blocks away.

03

Swap

Meet on campus, swap, leave a rating. Then go find your next trade.
