Fidget Trades is the kid-safe app where collectors show off their squishy squads and trade with kids across the US — every trade ships through our Hub, gets inspected by real humans, and no family's address is ever shared. Ever.
Kids do the collecting and choosing. Parents approve everything. The Hub does the shipping — so no one ever needs to know where anyone lives.
Photograph your squishies to build your collection. Photos are screened before anyone else sees them — squishies only, never faces or rooms.
Browse collections from kids across the country, get smart trade matches from wishlists, and check the fair-trade meter before you offer.
Every trade waits for a parent PIN on both sides. Parents see exactly what's traded and what it costs before anything moves.
Pop your squishy in any envelope and show the QR code at the post office — postage's on us. Both squishies meet at the Fidget Trades Hub, get inspected, and ship on to their new homes.
We started Fidget Trades because trading was happening anyway — in DMs, in Facebook groups, with strangers and home addresses. We built the version we'd let our own kids use.
Families ship only to our Hub, and we ship onward. The other family never learns your name, your town, or anything else.
Real people at the Hub check every squishy against its photos and the CPSC recall list. Not as promised? The trade reverses free — that's our SwapSafe guarantee.
Parent-owned accounts, PIN approval on every trade and purchase, auto-generated usernames, and screened photos. COPPA-first by design.
Download free, build your collection free, browse free. When you're ready to trade, pick your lane.
Common to Legendary — the rarity card under the tissue tells you what you pulled. No peeking.
Makes a dangerously good birthday gift.
The app is designed for kids, with a parent running the account. Parents create the account, control payments, and approve every trade — kids get a supervised profile with an auto-generated username.
Really never. Shipping labels are generated by us and only ever carry the Hub's address. You ship to us, we inspect, we ship onward. The receiving family sees a username and a squishy — nothing else.
Postage in both directions (via a QR code — no printer needed), packaging, human inspection at the Hub including a recall-list check, and the SwapSafe guarantee: if what arrives isn't what was promised, the trade reverses free.
Squishies and soft fidget toys under about 8 oz — squishy dumplings, slow-rise foam friends, and their cousins. US addresses only at launch.
No. Collection photos are screened before going public (squishies only — never faces, rooms, or anything identifying), usernames are auto-generated, and there is no direct messaging between kids.
