SOUND FAMILIAR
You started a thrift business,
not a logistics company.
India's secondhand apparel market is one of the fastest-growing segments in fashion, projected to grow at over 20% a year as Gen Z buyers move to resale. Thrifting also breaks every assumption built into normal ecommerce logistics: your inventory is one-of-one, your sales happen in a fifteen-minute window on a Sunday drop, and half your orders are claimed in comments before anyone has entered an address. Unicapp is built for that shape of business. The two things that actually cap a thrift store's growth are the hours lost collecting addresses over DM after every drop, and the pieces held for buyers who never pay. Selling through a store link that captures the address and takes the money at checkout removes both, and the delivery runs off the same order.
Forty pieces gone in one story, and then four hours of DMs collecting addresses one buyer at a time.
If a parcel is lost you cannot ship a replacement. The sale is gone and so is the customer.
People claim pieces and disappear. You held stock for two days and got nothing for it.
A pair of jeans, a jacket and a single scarf all price differently, and you are guessing shipping at checkout.
WHAT YOU SHIP
If you sell it,
we'll deliver it.
HOW WE HANDLE IT
Built for how
thrift actually ships.
Drop day is one pickup, not forty bookings
Orders from your store link land in one list with addresses already captured. Schedule a single doorstep pickup for the whole drop instead of booking each parcel by hand.
Payment before you hold the piece
Your store takes UPI and cards at checkout, so a piece is reserved when it is paid for, not when someone types 'claimed'. That alone removes most of the no-show problem in resale.
Single-piece parcels priced honestly
Cost is per delivery on real weight and distance, shown before you confirm — so a single scarf does not carry the same freight as a winter coat and you can quote shipping accurately at checkout.
DELIVERY PLAYBOOK
Every piece is stock of one
A thrift store's whole inventory is one-of-one. A lost parcel is not a reorder, it is a refund and a listing you cannot repost. Drop days create 30–80 orders in a few hours, so the playbook is built around batching and not losing anything.
The parcel
- Typical parcel
- One or two preloved pieces in a mailer: 250–600 g
- Order pattern
- Spiky: most orders land in the two hours after a drop goes live, then silence till the next one
- Value profile
- ₹400–₹1,500, so a lost parcel is a refund plus a lost listing, not a replacement
- Speed that fits
- Same-day inside Delhi NCR the day after the drop; surface pan-India elsewhere
Weekly rhythm
- 1Run the drop on a fixed weekday evening and pack the next morning as a single batch with one scheduled doorstep pickup.
- 2Take payment at checkout and hold a claimed piece for a short, stated window. Unpaid claims are how a thrift store sells the same jacket twice.
- 3Send the live tracking link with a photo of the actual piece being packed; thrift buyers want proof it is the item from the reel.
Packing spec
- Wash, steam and fold before packing. The piece should arrive looking like the listing photo, not like it came out of a sack.
- Poly sleeve, then a mailer. Tissue and a handwritten note cost rupees and are the difference between a buyer and a repeat buyer.
- No boxes unless it is footwear or a structured bag; mailers keep the parcel in the lowest weight slab.
HOW IT WORKS
Three steps,
then forget about it.
Upload each piece with its measurements and condition. One-of-one stock marks itself sold the moment it is paid for, so nothing double-sells.
We collect the entire drop from your door in one go. Same-day across Delhi NCR, pan-India surface or air for everyone else, all tracked.
Money is taken up front and settled to your bank in 1-2 days. No chasing claimers, no commission on your sale.
