How to swap safely: tips for meeting and exchanging items
Most swaps are simple and friendly. A few habits keep every exchange safe — for you and for the person you are swapping with.
Before you meet
- Keep the conversation in the Swapll chat until you have agreed the swap.
- Check the other user's profile and ratings.
- Ask for extra photos or details if anything is unclear.
- Never share your password or a one-time password (OTP) with anyone — Swapll will never ask for it.
When you meet
- Meet in a busy public place during the day, such as a café or a mall.
- Bring a friend for larger or more valuable items.
- Inspect and test the item before you hand over yours.
- If something doesn't feel right, it's fine to walk away.
After the swap
- Confirm the swap in the app and rate the other user.
- Report any user or listing that seems suspicious or abusive from their profile — the Swapll team reviews every report.
