Last Update: May, 2023
To help make sure our wonderful Wallapop community stays a safe place where anyone can buy and sell unique goods, certain listings are not allowed. It may seem like a no-brainer, but it’s always worth reminding ourselves.
The content must be compliant with our Community guidelines and our Terms and Conditions of use. Otherwise, the listing will be deactivated and no one will be able to see it. Also, keep in mind that we do not allow illegal stuff. When a person repeatedly ignores the rules, we may deactivate their account. The law is the law.
We reserve the right to redetermine what items are and aren’t allowed to be listed on Wallapop. If we discover that certain items violate our terms, we may remove those items even if they’re not listed below.
