Swap what you have. Get what you need.

Webo quietly matches you with neighbours who have what you need and want what you've got spare. No browsing, no haggling. Just a fair trade, sorted.

Why we're different

A quiet kind of marketplace.

Every home has a spare tin, a half-used bag, or that extra packet from the bulk shop. Someone nearby needs exactly that, and has something you need in return.

How a swap works

Four steps. No cash.

No public feed, ever.

You'll never scroll through strangers' kitchens. Matches happen quietly in the background. You only see them when there's a real, useful fit. No clutter, no comparison shopping.

Matched to your street.

Tell Webo what you have spare and what you'd love to get hold of. We pair you with someone within walking or short driving distance. Trades stay neighbourhood-close.

A fair like-for-like trade.

No bidding, no haggling, no money changing hands. Webo suggests trades where both households benefit equally. You give a tin, you get a tin. Simple as that.

Built for every home.

Plain language. Big buttons. No jargon, no bells, no whistles you don't need. Whether it's your first app or your fiftieth, Webo feels familiar from the first tap.

How it works

One trade, start to finish.

From listing your first item to rating the swap. This is the whole journey, in the app.

The Webo story

Two people, one shared kitchen table.

Webo started with a conversation about how much food sits unused in some pantries, and how much is missing from others. Here's who's building it.
