This innovative service lets brands and consumers list clothing items on the popular online marketplace using Certilogo’s Secure by Design digital ID. The process begins by scanning the QR code on the smart label, which generates a "resell your garment" button on the item's digital profile. After filling out product information, users can easily list the item for sale on eBay, reaching a vast audience of potential buyers. “Finding solutions that help our customers make more circular choices — and keep our product out of landfill — is of the utmost importance to us,” Nicolas Bargi, CEO and founder of [Save The Duck](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/return-kiosks), said in the release. The new tool can be accessed online through the eBay app. Image Credit: Mehaniq ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 24% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/business) > [Retail](https://www.trendhunter.com/retail) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Qr-code Enabled Resale:** The QR-code enabled resale system simplifies the listing process and enhances user experience in second-hand marketplaces. - **Digital Clothing Authentication:** Digital IDs for clothing items offer a secure, trackable way to confirm the authenticity of second-hand goods. - **Circular Fashion Marketplace:** Circular economy models gain traction as resale platforms integrate features that promote sustainability and reduce textile waste. ### Who This Affects Most - **E-commerce:** E-commerce platforms can leverage technology to streamline consumer experience and encourage sustainable shopping habits. - **Fashion:** The fashion industry experiences a shift with digital IDs enabling easier resale and assurance of garment authenticity. - **Sustainability:** Sustainability initiatives benefit from integrating digital tools that facilitate the resale and recycling of clothing, reducing landfill waste. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Embedded Resale Integrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ebay-resale.md) - [Online Luxury Resale Platform](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-consignment-platform.md) - [Branded Customer Resale Marketplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/relove.md) - [eCommerce Consignment Services](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ebay-consignment.md) - [Regenerative Designer Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/endless-runway.md) - [AI Resale Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/croissant-app.md) - [Luxury Consignment Services](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/consignment-service.md) - [Refurbished E-Commerce Marketplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ebay-refurbished.md) - [Service-Backed Recommerce Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Full-service-secondhand-marketplaces.md)
