Ecoswap is a platform for sustainable gifting, offering eco-friendly gift cards that help individuals and businesses reduce waste and align with their environmental values.

By providing sustainable and meaningful gifting solutions, Ecoswap empowers individuals and organisations to reduce their environmental footprint, foster conscious consumption, and align with a greener future. Together, we’re transforming gifting into a force for good.
EcoSwap provides an innovative platform for sustainable gifting that aligns with environmental values and promotes conscious consumption. This is done via a multi-choice gift card which enables recipients to trade their ecoswap funds for gift cards from sustainable and ethical brands or donate it towards charities and impactful causes.
Key Features of Our Solution: Eco-Friendly Product Marketplace We curate a range of high-quality, sustainable gifts made by environmentally responsible businesses. These include plastic-free, upcycled, and locally sourced options that prioritise the planet.
Digital Gifting Experience Our platform eliminates wasteful packaging by digitizing the gifting process, offering virtual gift cards and personalised experiences, ensuring minimal environmental impact.
