Student Marketplace for Verified College Students
Buy and sell on campus—only with verified students
Udega is exclusively for students verified with a .edu email. Every user on the platform is a real, verified college student—so you always know who you're dealing with. No random strangers, no bots, no scams from off-campus.
How Udega works
Sign up with your .edu email to get verified. Browse or post listings for items and services. Coordinate meetups on campus or use safe payments to complete the transaction. It's that simple.
What you can buy and sell
Textbooks, electronics, dorm furniture, clothing, event tickets, and more. You can also offer services like tutoring, photography, haircuts, and graphic design. If it's useful on campus, you can list it.
Built for safety and trust
Every user is .edu-verified. Safe payments hold funds until the buyer confirms receipt. If something goes wrong, our dispute resolution process protects both sides. Meetups happen on campus where it's familiar and safe.

When a buyer pays through Udega, funds are held securely until the buyer confirms they received the item or service. This protects both the buyer and the seller.

How do meetups work for local exchanges?
Buyers and sellers coordinate meetups on campus through Udega's messaging system. We recommend meeting in public, well-lit areas on campus.
What fees does Udega charge sellers?
Udega charges a 14% fee on completed sales. The fee is deducted from the seller's payout automatically. There are no listing fees or monthly charges.
Do buyer taxes affect my payout as a seller?
No. Taxes are paid by the buyer and are completely separate from the seller's payout. Your payout is based on the item price minus the 14% Udega fee.
How do refunds and disputes work?
If there's an issue with a transaction, either party can open a dispute. Udega's support team reviews the case and determines the outcome. Refunds are processed according to our dispute resolution policy.
