Nothing wasted. Everything used fully. Trocaly makes it simple for people to pass what they no longer need to the people who need it — through exchange, not money — so good things keep being used until they truly can't be used anymore. Helping each other becomes the normal way to get what you need, and buying new is the last choice, not the first.
Make the World Better
A marketplace with no money.
People trade things and skills using credits instead of cash.
Free to join and list. A small fee only when an exchange completes — paid by the member who claimed.
Nothing wasted. Everything used fully.
Credits kept safe until the exchange is done
No cash between members, ever
Every member has a public show-up record
Start at zero credits. Claim what you need first — up to 100 credits' worth — and give back later.
How it works
1
GIVE
List something you have: an item, a skill, an hour of help.
2
EARN
When someone takes it, you earn credits.
3
GET
Spend your credits on anything other members offer.
Your old bike earns you 200 credits → 200 credits gets you a guitar, a lesson, or a day of help.
Joining and listing are free. When an exchange completes, the member who claimed pays one small service fee — 1% of the credits, never less than $1 and never more than $30. Claims under 50 credits never have a fee. Fees are not switched on yet.

If something goes wrong
Your skills are a resource too.
Some people can't find a job — but they still have something the world needs. On Trocaly, you don't need a certificate. If you can do it well, you can offer it: sing at a birthday, walk a neighbour's dog, teach what you know, fix what's broken. Someone near you needs exactly that — and you earn credits doing it.
Nothing wasted. Not things. Not skills. Not people.
Our Mission & Vision
What can be exchanged
Goods and skills of all kinds. Rides are coming later.
Open to members in Canada and the United States (not yet in Nevada, California, Arizona, Washington or New York). Goods change hands near you; online skills — lessons, coaching, help by video call — can be exchanged anywhere in your own country.
Never exchanged: food and drinks; alcohol, cannabis, tobacco, and vapes; illegal drugs and drug equipment; medicines, supplements, and vitamins; weapons, ammunition, and pepper spray; fireworks and other explosives; hazardous chemicals, pesticides, and fuels; damaged, swollen, or leaking batteries; anything that has been recalled or is banned in Canada — including baby walkers, drop-side cribs, and inclined sleepers; used baby car seats and cribs; used helmets; opened, used, expired, or homemade cosmetics and personal-care products; counterfeit goods; gift cards and event tickets; live animals; sexual services; and services that legally require a licence (such as medical or legal advice, or electrical and gas work).
