Listing an item on Partage is a very simple and easy process!

First, you have to create an account on our website. It will allow you to track the items that you have listed or retrieved in the past. You can use the option ‘Login/Register’ at the top right-hand side of the homepage to register with your email or any Google account.

From there, you can add the ‘Title’, ‘Category’, ‘Item Condition’, ‘Description’ of the item that you wish to list on our platform and the ‘Postcode’ where you reside. We also encourage our users to attach multiple pictures of their items as this increases the chances of your item to be noticed on our platform.
