How YoungPlanet works

Share what they've outgrown. Save on what comes next. YoungPlanet brings free family sharing and optional member savings together in one app.

YoungPlanet app feed with free children's listings and family offers YoungPlanet app showing offers from participating retailers

Give something a new home. Find your family's next favourite.

The marketplace is free: list things your children have outgrown, request something another family is offering and arrange the exchange directly in the app.

Give things away

  1. Show what you're sharing

    Take clear photos, add a useful description and explain the item's condition and what is included.

  2. Hear from another family

    Respond to requests or messages in the app and agree who will receive the item.

  3. Arrange the handover

    Choose a collection time and place that work for both of you, then pass the item on for free.

Find what you need

  1. Browse your way

    Search by keyword, category or location and save listings you want to revisit.

  2. Read, then ask

    Check the photos and description. Request the item or contact the person sharing it to ask questions.

  3. Agree the details

    Confirm the collection arrangements before travelling. Availability depends on the person sharing and the requests they receive.

Current items are in the app. Historical listing pages on this website are an archive and do not show verified availability.

Use a discount code with the retailer

Open an offer in the app to see the current saving, eligibility and instructions. Participating retailers and offers can change.

  1. Find an offer that fits

    Browse available offers and read the retailer's terms, including any exclusions or minimum spend.

  2. Follow the offer instructions

    Copy the code where one is provided, or use the redeem link to continue to the retailer.

  3. Check the saving before buying

    Apply the code as instructed and confirm the retailer's final total before completing your purchase.

Your order is placed with the retailer and follows its delivery, returns and other terms. Affiliate tracking is optional; declining it does not remove access to an offer.

How prepaid vouchers work

Voucher availability, savings and redemption options vary by participating brand. The app shows the details before checkout.

  1. Choose a voucher

    Browse participating brands and open a voucher to see its current saving and terms.

  2. Select the value

    Pick an available denomination or enter an amount where the brand supports it.

  3. Review the total

    Check the face value, member saving, any service fee and the final amount before paying.

  4. Receive it by email

    Your voucher details are emailed to you for use online or in store, depending on the brand.

Voucher value, member saving, any service fee and the final total are shown before payment. Check the individual voucher's expiry and redemption terms. Voucher checkout currently requires a UK-issued payment card.

A few things worth knowing

Is the YoungPlanet marketplace still free?

Yes. Giving and receiving pre-loved items through the marketplace remains free. Membership is an optional way to access extra savings and does not replace the free marketplace.

How do I manage or cancel membership?

Manage membership where you bought it. For a web purchase, open Membership in the web app and choose Manage subscription to open the customer portal. Follow its sign-in instructions using the purchase email. For an iOS or Android purchase, use the subscription settings for the App Store or Google Play account used to subscribe. Check the cancellation confirmation and access end date in that service.

Manage web membership

Do I have to accept affiliate tracking to use an offer?

No. Where a retailer link uses affiliate tracking, YoungPlanet asks for your choice first. Declining does not remove the offer or affect membership, and a direct retailer link is used where available. YoungPlanet may receive a commission from tracked purchases at no extra cost to you, which helps to fund YoungPlanet™.
