✨Baandy Free Swap 001 ✨
At Baandy, we’re building something different. Something honest. Something human.
A way to travel that doesn’t drain your wallet or reward landlords whilst driving up rents for locals
- A way that instead connects real people who want to explore the world fairly, safely, and sustainably.
This first free swap is more than a giveaway.
It’s the start of a movement.
You’ll stay in a real home, swap with a real person, and see a new place through their eyes.
Get their recommendations and experience life like a local.
And to help make it happen, we’re contributing up to £150 towards your travel and up to £200 in spending money (maximum £350 in total), plus full swap protection via Truvi for peace of mind.
Everything runs safely through the Baandy app:
-Travel must be approved
-Communication must stay on platform
-Payments are released only once the swap is completed and verified.
-You’ll need to meet any travel or visa requirements
-Behave responsibly
-Share a few pieces of content from your stay so we can inspire the next wave of swappers.
This is just the beginning.
We’re here to make swapping mainstream — and this first free swap is your chance to help shape the future of travel.
Read the full rules below, then dive in.
