About Supa Swap

We at Supa Swap saw that there was a need for younger people to have the ability to trade on the internet in a safe environment;
we also believe it is important that our young members are offered the chance to learn about good money management to assist them in the future.

We are aware that younger people value their independence very highly however because Supa Swap involves financial transactions we decided to give you the parents and guardians the ability to supervise your child’s activities, this in no way should effect the young ones ability to enjoy all that Supa Swap has to offer.

There are many auction sites on the internet or course Ebay is the largest, but the problem for children wishing to use adult auction sites is that many contain content which is unsuitable for children.

SECURE
Supa Swap is unique and contains high levels of security. This means you the parent; guardian or carer has to register your child rather than letting children register themselves. We only require minimum information on your child just name and date of birth. This information remains secure on our database and is not shared with any third party.

MISUSE
We constantly review the contents of SupaSwap and make every effort to ensure that no inappropriate items are placed on Supa Swap.However should you be aware of any inappropriate item then you can report it to us immediately. Supa Swap takes appropriate trading and communication between members very seriously.

EDUCATIONAL
Supa Swap is fun but also very educational as it helps teach your child/children the value of money, good money management skills and how to swap and trade successfully with other children. Consider how your child will decide how much their item is worth before they place it for sale, swap or auction on Supa Swap? As a parent or guardian, think back how much did we understand about wheeling and dealing, or money management when we were younger? How important is it for your children to learn how to buy and pay for goods securely on the internet? Teaching children to save up for things before they buy is also a very important lesson which can be learnt using Sup aSwap. These simple lessons are taught in a fun and practical way by simply using SupaSwap.

YOU’RE INVOLVEMENT
As the parent or guardian, you will have the ability to monitor your child’s activities and set a full range fo parental controls if you wish. There is no chat room on Supa Swap and you can view and moderate e-mail messages that pass between your child and any other child during the process of buying, bidding, selling or swapping. Also you can set permissions which control the actions of buying, bidding, selling or swapping of any item, all the actions of your child are recorded and you are kept up to date by e-mail.. You also control the payment and receipt of all monies through your PayPal™ account for added security.

IN SUMMARY
Supa Swap gives your children the chance to bid, swap, buy and sell games, gadgets, toys, books and many other items at more affordable prices but it will also help you teach your children a huge lesson in money management while still being fun. It will enable children through the profits they make on their trades to save up for that something special that they want and that takes the burden away from you. It also helps you and your child, because when they sell their old items it frees up space, reduces clutter, and generates income for your child which can subsidise their pocket money.

For teenagers the income they earn through their activities on Supa Swap we are sure will be gratefully received and well spent.
