Swap it.
Don’t buy it.

Barteria is an app for swapping items with neighbors, no money involved. List an item, browse other people’s items, offer a swap, and when you both agree it’s a match. Meet up, check the item matches what you agreed, and confirm the swap with a QR scan.

Yes. No money ever changes hands between users for items — that’s the whole point of Barteria. The only fee is a small one-time unlock charge to chat about a registered luxury item (over ₪1,000); it goes to Barteria, not the other person, and covers verifying the item.

Tools, furniture, electronics, home items, sports gear, books, board and video games, plants, mixed boxes, baby items, clothes and more. A monetary value is optional: add one as a yardstick for a fair swap, or pick Make me an offer or One for one. You can also give things away or lend them. Money itself never changes hands.

Swipe through items within walking distance, like one and offer one of yours in return. When you both like each other’s item, it’s a match — you have 48 hours to arrange a meeting.

Always in a public place during the day — a café, a park entrance, a building lobby with a concierge. Tell someone where you’re going or bring a friend, and you can walk away from any swap at any point with no penalty.

At the meeting, scan the QR code shown in the other person’s app (there’s also a backup numeric code). Neighbors in the same building can also use lobby drop-off with a personal PIN code, without meeting face to face.

You can report a no-show starting 30 minutes after the agreed time. The other person has 72 hours to contest it from the first time they open the app after the report, and at most 7 days from the report; two upheld reports within 90 days temporarily pause your ability to swipe.

Yes, any time, from any profile or chat screen. Blocking is mutual and immediate — it cancels any open matches with no effect on your rating, and hides you from each other across the app.

Yes. Barteria is open to everyone in Israel and the US. We started in Rosh HaAyin (including Nofarim) and Tel Aviv, and you’re welcome to join from anywhere and be among the first in your neighborhood.

Yes, deletion is immediate and permanent from Settings > Delete account. Your open matches are canceled, items come down, chat messages are erased and your profile becomes anonymous. Ratings you already gave stay on record, so they don’t skew someone else’s average, but no longer identify you. Moderation records (reports, decisions and restrictions) are kept for up to 3 years.
