How does the trade process work?
Step 1. Upload an item or service by snapping a photo and writing a description. Step 2. Browse and filter by anything from categories, distance, value, others desires, and Facebook Friends. Step 3. Pick an item or service you like and propose a trade by mix and matching to find the ideal offer. Step 4. If you get a TradeMade notification, chat with that person, meet-up, and make it happen! We guide you through the process and make it as simple and direct as possible. And remember, as you trade, you accumulate carbon savings points! 
How does the carbon badge system work?
We’ve partnered with a few incredible organizations to build a diverse and abundant carbon metric database. We’ve also spent years doing research to find and calculate carbon footprint metrics to make TradeMade not only a great way to reduce your carbon footprint, but a great way to learn about the true, environmental cost of goods. Carbon badges are automatically assigned to items when you upload them (we’ll do all the work 🙂 ) and tell you what that item’s carbon footprint is, and, since you’re not buying new stuff, you’re preventing new carbon from entering the atmosphere. So, when you see a carbon badge on an item, when you trade and get it, you’ve just increased your total carbon savings by the amount seen on that item. Check out your, and your friends’ profiles, to see how much you’ve saved!
