Why Op Shops Should Jump on the OppSpot Bandwagon

Why Op Shops Should Jump on the OppSpot Bandwagon

Let’s be real—thrift shopping is no longer just about rummaging through packed racks in a tiny store. These days, online op shopping is the way to go! And if you’re running an op shop or charity store, selling online via OppSpot is a total game-changer. It’s easy, affordable, and helps you raise the most money possible for the incredible causes you champion. Let’s break it down!

Selling Online = More Sales, Less Hassle

We get it - setting up an online store can feel like a headache. That’s where OppSpot comes in. They make it ridiculously easy for op shops to sell secondhand treasures online without dealing with all the fiddly bits.

You can either set up your own online store and list items directly for sale, or take advantage of our 'Sell for Me' package (available to all Melb-based NFPs).

Here’s how Sell for Me works:

✔️ Pick out the best items you want to sell.
✔️ Send them to OppSpot (or they’ll pick them up!).
✔️ We do all the work - photos, listings, shipping.
✔️ You get paid. Easy peasy!

No need to stress about setting up a website, handling payments, or figuring out postage - OppSpot takes care of it all. It’s online thrift shopping, minus the drama!

Small Fees, Big Wins

Nobody likes hidden fees that eat up your profits. The good news? OppSpot’s fees are way lower than many other platforms.

💰 It’s FREE to set up a store and list items.
💰 We only take 20% (+ Stripe processing fees) for Sell for Me sales - which is way lower than what you’d pay on other online marketplaces.

That means more money stays with your charity, helping you support the causes that matter.

More Reach = More $$ for Your Cause

Your shop might have a loyal bunch of local thrifters, but selling on OppSpot, you can reach secondhand shoppers all over Australia. More shoppers = more sales = more funds for your charity. Plus, your loyal shoppers will also be able to browse your virtual racks when your physical store is closed.

Plus, it’s a win-win for shoppers, too. People love shopping for a good cause, and OppSpot makes it easy for them to find awesome pre-loved items while supporting charities. Feel-good shopping at its finest!

Ready to Give It a Go?

If you’re running an op shop or charity store, OppSpot is the easiest way to take your thrift game online. More money, less stress, and a bigger impact—it’s a no-brainer.

Get Selling!
