Our Story

It started with a frustration every student knows. Walking into the campus bookshop at the start of term, seeing the prices, and wondering how anyone could afford all the required reading.

"There must be a better way", we thought. And so UniBookTrade was born - a modern marketplace built for UK students, focused on simplicity, trust, and sustainability.

Today, we're proud to be part of thousands of students' university experience. Every day we help people find affordable textbooks, earn money from books they no longer need, and contribute to a more circular economy.

Our Values

Sustainability

We believe in the circular economy. Every second-hand book sold is a step towards a more sustainable future.

Trust

Community

We're building a community of students who share the passion for affordable education.

Affordability

Everyone should be able to access quality textbooks at reasonable prices.
