Shifta: Car Swap Marketplace

Spota Labs, inc.

About this app

Your car is great.

But you've been thinking about something different.

Maybe you want to trade your Mustang for a BMW M340i.
Your sedan for an SUV.
Your daily driver for something more exciting.
Something cheaper so you can walk away with extra cash.

There's just one problem.

Selling your car is a hassle. Buying another one is another hassle. And trading it in at a dealership might mean accepting less than you hoped.

But what if someone out there already has the car you want… and wants yours?

That's where Shifta comes in.

Shifta is a vehicle-for-vehicle marketplace that connects car owners who want to exchange their vehicles.

Add your car, discover compatible trades, match with interested owners, negotiate the difference, and explore ways to complete your exchange securely.

Shifta flips the traditional car marketplace on its head.

Instead of asking:
"Who's willing to buy my car?"

Shifta asks:
"Who has a car I'd want, and might want mine?"

It's a different way to discover your next vehicle.

🚘 ADD YOUR CAR. UNLOCK YOUR NEXT MOVE.

Add your vehicle to your Shifta Garage and create a profile that helps other owners understand what you're bringing to the table.

Build your listing with:
• Year, make, model, and trim
• VIN and vehicle specifications
• Mileage and condition
• Photos and modifications
• Vehicle features and history
• Estimated market value
• Ownership and verification information
• Your trading preferences

Tell Shifta what you're interested in, how far you're willing to trade, and whether you're comfortable adding or receiving cash.

🎯 DISCOVER CARS THAT MATCH YOURS

Shifta helps you discover vehicles that fit your preferences, estimated vehicle value, location, and potential trade compatibility.

Discover:
✅ Vehicles that fit your trade preferences
✅ Owners who may be interested in your car
✅ Estimated value differences
✅ Nearby and long-distance opportunities
✅ Potentially compatible exchanges

💰 TRADE UP, DOWN, OR ACROSS.

Shifta isn't limited to vehicles worth the same amount.

Imagine:
Your Mustang is valued at $39,600.
You find a BMW M340i valued at $43,200.
Estimated difference: $3,600

If both owners agree on the values and terms, you could offer your Mustang plus the difference.

💬 NEGOTIATE DIRECTLY WITH OTHER OWNERS

Shifta brings both owners together so they can discuss what matters before committing to an exchange.

Talk about:
• Vehicle condition and history
• Maintenance and modifications
• Estimated and agreed values
• Cash differences
• Inspection arrangements
• Outstanding loans or liens
• Exchange locations and logistics

Make an offer, discuss the terms, and decide whether the trade makes sense for both sides. You're not negotiating with an algorithm. You're negotiating with another car owner who wants a change, just like you.

🛡️ MAKE CONFIDENCE PART OF THE DEAL

Shifta is designed to support a more informed trading experience:
✅ Vehicle and ownership verification
✅ VIN and vehicle-history information
✅ Inspection coordination
✅ Clear exchange terms
✅ Title and lien status checks
✅ Transaction support through eligible third-party providers

🤝 FROM MUTUAL MATCH TO REAL-WORLD EXCHANGE

Vehicle trades can involve titles, loans, payments, inspections, and paperwork.

Shifta aims to make that process easier to navigate by connecting compatible owners with supported transaction services to help with:
• Ownership and identity checks
• Vehicle title transfers
• Outstanding loan or lien handling
• Secure payment coordination
• Required transaction documents
• Vehicle transportation arrangements

🔎 YOUR NEXT CAR DOESN'T HAVE TO BE NEW. JUST NEW TO YOU.

Maybe you've outgrown your current car.
Maybe your family needs something bigger.
Maybe you're tired of driving an automatic and want a manual.
Or maybe you simply want to try something different without going through the traditional selling-and-buying journey.

Shifta gives you a new way to explore what comes next.
