About us

Mercari is a C2C marketplace app allowing anyone with a smartphone to easily sell items they no longer need, providing a new and unique user experience. In the past, buying and selling secondhand items has commonly been done at physical shops. However, this came with issues: the travel time required to go to these shops, the limited selection of items these shops carry, the unclear prices for both the buyer and seller alike due to the involvement of dealers, and more. Online auction websites for buying and selling secondhand items came with their own problems, including difficult listing procedures and long bidding times. On Mercari, anyone can use their smartphone to easily buy and sell items. We also provide easy and inexpensive shipping options thanks to our partnerships with delivery companies and convenience stores. As our service is catered to individuals on both the buying and selling sides, anyone can experience the fun of easily selling unneeded items for money and the excitement of finding unique secondhand items to buy. With the technological capabilities and extensive user and information bases built through Mercari, we launched the Merpay mobile payment service in 2019, the B2C marketplace Mercari Shops in October 2021, and the cryptoasset exchange service Mercoin in March 2023. We strive to continuously enhance the user experience and expand our businesses.

    Today is Reuse Day in Japan, but that’s every day at Mercari! Promoting reuse and circulating value in society is what we’re all about, and not just through developing products and services. At the entrance of Mercari’s Tokyo headquarters, you’ll find our logo and seating which were upcycled from old office furniture and secondhand items purchased on the Mercari app. These pieces not only give new use to old items, but creatively embody the essence of our marketplace app!

    Exciting news for our users in the US! On August 1, 2024, our US business announced Mercari x Japan, a new product offering that will open up direct access to inventory from millions of sellers on its Japanese marketplace. Through Mercari x Japan, US shoppers can now browse an expansive selection of rare and hard-to-find items directly from Japan. “This launch is the first time we are connecting our US and Japanese marketplaces, enabling US shoppers to purchase items from millions of sellers in Japan,” said John Lagerling, Mercari US CEO. “When we thought about the future of resale, cross-border shopping was a natural next step in Mercari's evolution as a truly seamless global marketplace. Interest in Japanese fashion, toys, and collectibles has been steadily increasing in recent years and the strength of the US dollar makes it a great time for our customers to be able to buy directly from Japan.” Read more in the full press release: https://lnkd.in/eQ3aEYXQ #mercari
