Depop is an online marketplace designed for buying, selling, and discovering unique fashion items, including designer pieces, vintage finds, streetwear, and sneakers. The platform operates as a peer-to-peer marketplace, allowing users to list their items for sale directly to other users. Depop generates revenue by taking a commission on each sale, ensuring that the company profits only when its users do. This model aligns the success of the platform with that of its sellers. Depop primarily targets younger consumers who value unique, sustainable, and often second-hand fashion, appealing to their interest in reducing waste and supporting independent brands. The platform also emphasizes community engagement, encouraging interaction among users to create a more personal buying and selling experience. This focus on community and sustainability sets Depop apart from other online fashion marketplaces, making it a popular choice for those looking for diverse and unique fashion options.
