TRUZH is a community-first marketplace where buying and selling second-hand feels safe, fast, and personal - starting within the people you already trust.
University circles
Where every exchange starts with a shared connection
We rebuilt the second-hand experience around something marketplaces forgot: real community. Here is what makes TRUZH different.
Every trade begins inside a verified circle - your workplace, your university, your neighborhood.
No couriers. No packaging. No waiting. Arrange a meetup and close the deal in minutes.
Verified identities, in-app chat, and moderation tools. Your personal data stays yours.
Every exchange keeps an item out of landfill and cuts the carbon cost of shipping.
Five steps between you and your next trade.
Sign up with your university or workplace email to unlock your private community marketplace.
Upload clear photos, write an honest description, and set your price. The whole process takes under two minutes.
Chat in-app with interested buyers. No phone numbers shared, no external platforms needed.
Meet at a campus café, an office lobby, or any public spot you choose. Hand to hand. Done.
If your item has not sold within your community, expand its visibility to the public marketplace with a single tap.
Born at Universitat Politècnica de València
TRUZH was founded after a simple observation: companies, universities, and workplaces are full of perfectly usable items - books, electronics, furniture, bicycles - sitting unused because there is no easy, trusted way to pass them on.
The solution was equally simple: a marketplace built around real community membership, where the first layer of trust already exists before any transaction begins.
Today, TRUZH is growing across academic institutions and professional environments, helping people trade locally while building a more sustainable and connected future.
