About ShelfSwap

Revolutionizing how students access academic books in India through a sustainable, student-powered marketplace

Our Mission

At ShelfSwap, we're on a mission to revolutionize how students access academic books in India by creating a sustainable, affordable, and efficient marketplace.

Textbooks are expensive, and most second-hand platforms today act like unstructured classifieds—no payments, no delivery, no guarantees. We're changing that by offering a seamless, Amazon-like experience for used books that's built by students, for students.
