5 Best Selling Apps to Sell Stuff Online
1. Decluttr (1:09)
Decluttr lets you sell used CDs, DVDs, games, and tech online. And using Decluttr is pretty simple. When you’re on the Decluttr app or website, you can enter your item, and you’ll get an instant valuation for the item you want to sell.
The great part about this is that you don’t need to answer any crazy questions about the product you’re trying to sell, and you don’t need to write out a description either. It’s as easy as telling Decluttr what you’re selling, and they’ll tell you how much money you will make.
2. thredUP (2:39)
If you have extra clothes in your closet that you don’t love anymore, or maybe don’t fit, a great option to make money fast on used clothing is with thredUP. ThredUP is one of the most trustworthy buy and sell apps out there. The app is built for selling (and also buying) used clothes from brands like Old Navy, Gap, and J. Crew, as well as designer brands.
If you want to sell your clothes on thredUP, you’ll need to order a free closet clean-out kit on their website. Once the bag arrives in the mail, you can put your gently used clothing in it, send it off, and wait. Once your order is processed, you’ll receive payment via thredUP shopping credit, PayPal, or a VISA prepaid card.
3. Letgo (4:07)
The third selling app to make money online is letgo. Letgo is an alternative to Craigslist and lets you sell items like clothes, furniture, cars, and other items to people in your area. To get started with the letgo app, create a free account and then upload photos of what you want to sell.
It’s important to be honest and clear about your item’s condition. And having quality pictures will help with marketing your item so that it sells faster.
This app is a bit more work than others. Just because you have to create the listing yourself and do a little bit more work to market your items well, if you really want to sell them fast and for your desired amount. But the great part about this is that you have the potential to make a greater profit!
4. OfferUp (5:46)
The app OfferUp is another app that you can use to make money selling your items. OfferUp is a free app that connects people selling items like jewelry, cars, smartphones, and other tech items with local buyers. Unlike other selling apps, OfferUp allows buyers and sellers to communicate in-app, so there’s no need to give out personal information.
5. eBay (6:43)
A classic and one of the most popular selling platforms around is eBay. With eBay, you can buy and sell almost anything, and popular categories include used video games, phones, tech, and shoes. eBay’s internet platform means that you can sell your item to someone in almost any geographic location. But that does mean that there will be an additional cost of shipping.
There are so many selling apps out there! And choosing the best app depends on the items you have, the condition they’re in, and how much hassle and time you want to spend. Our tip for picking the right platform is to see if there’s an app that specializes in that category. And also be mindful of any fees that the company may charge for your listing. But once you sell your old items that you no longer use, you’ll love having that extra money in your pocket to put toward that next financial goal.
