About Vinted
Vinted’s mission is to make second‑hand clothing the first choice. Every day we help our members buy and sell pre‑loved items, giving each piece a second – or even a third – life. The Vinted Group is made up of three business units: Marketplace, Go and Pay.
Vinted Marketplace is Europe’s leading platform for second‑hand fashion and a go‑to destination for all kinds of pre‑loved items, connecting millions of members across more than 20 markets. Vinted Go enhances the shipping experience with a network of over 500,000 pick‑up and drop‑off points and additional services such as item verification. Vinted Pay is our newest payment service provider, dedicated to secure, reliable payments for buyers and sellers across Europe.
Founded in 2008 in Lithuania, Vinted grew to become Lithuania’s first unicorn in 2019 and now has over 2,000 employees across Europe. Our headquarters remain in Vilnius and our backers include Accel, EQT Growth, Insight Partners, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Sprints and TPG.
