How BookExchange works

A simple, neighbourly way to share the books you love.

Three phone screens showing the BookExchange flow: listing a book, receiving a request by email, and a happy reader holding the book they received.
List a book, receive a request, and pass a story on — that's the BookExchange way.

Step 1

Add books you've finished

Snap a photo, add a title, and list any book you're ready to share.

Step 2

Earn credits when books are approved

Each approved book earns you a credit you can spend on someone else's book.

Step 3

Use credits to request books nearby

Browse local listings and request the ones you want to read next.

Step 4

Arrange handover directly

Chat in-app to agree on a time and place — pickup, drop-off, or meet-up.

Step 5

Read it, then relist it

When you're done, list it again to earn another credit and keep stories moving.
