  • Cando’s offer

The Cando service is a networking, sales and advertising channel via which sellers offer secondhand or new fashion items that are produced through sustainable practices to registered users. The Cando service allows users to find, learn about and shop while earning rewards points for their participation. On the Cando app users share tips, hacks and information about the growing field of sustainability to help and inspire others. Through our service we are creating a community of aware fashion shoppers who actively want to improve their purchase decisions in-line with their sustainability concerns and reduce their carbon emissions.

In these terms of Cando service, the term “User” refers to private and business users collectively.
The term “Private users” refers to users who enter into this Agreement (Terms and Conditions for Users) with Cando are allowed to use the Cando Website (www.cando.io) and Cando app for private use. Private users may get access to certain sales features (e.g. “Activate closet” access, “Stylist” access, Product post, product feed, checkout access etc) on entering the Seller agreement with us after mandatory screening by Cando. 

The term “Business users” refers to users who are registered companies, with an organisation/company name, company identifier, VAT registration and individuals with VAT registration.
