It’s simple to get started: order a Thrift bag, fill it up with clothing and return the bag. Thrift+ hand-check all items for quality, then list them on Thrift+ and other marketplaces to resell. Items that don’t pass Thrift+ quality controls are donated to charity or responsibly recycled.

Every time an item sells for more than £7.5, you earn Thrift+ credits that can be donated to WWF from your Thrift+ account. The easiest in to setup an auto-donation to WWF in a few clicks from your Thrfit+ account.
