What does Bookbot do?

How does it work?

It’s actually very simple. If you have a book lying around at home that you are sure you won’t read again, send it to us. We will take your book, photograph it, and sell it in our online shop. Once the book has found a new buyer, we send you a commission, and your book finds a new home where it can bring joy again. At the same time, you can browse and purchase a new book from us. We now offer over a million titles, ranging from novels and literary classics to horror, sci-fi, and thrillers, but we have comics and hidden treasures as well.

Our mission

Although our roots lie in the beautiful city of Prague, we want to reach the whole world. You can already find us in Germany, Austria, and Slovakia, but our ambitions don’t stop there. Not only do we want to make a name for ourselves and offer you books at great prices, but we’ve also set our sights on France, Italy, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands. Who knows where our journey will take us next?

Recycling is also important to us because selling second-hand books saves paper, conserves resources, and promotes sustainability.

We are more than you think

We want to be the simplest and most enjoyable way to buy and sell books – while doing some good at the same time.

The Best Selection

With us, you’ll find a selection of over 1.5 million books in all languages and genres at affordable prices, because all books in our online shop are second-hand. Each book has been individually photographed by us, so you can clearly see the condition of the books you want to buy.

Great prizes

All books at Bookbot are cheaper than if you were to buy them new. We have a sophisticated pricing system that reflects the current market situation. This way, you can be sure that you not only get books at great prices but also receive the best sales commission on the entire market.

The Easiest Sale

To sell books on Bookbot, simply upload a photo of the spines of all your books via our online form. Within 24 hours, you’ll receive confirmation of whether and which books we accept. Then choose a free shipping option and send your books to us. We take care of the rest: from photographing to listing, to selling the books. Once a book is sold, you’ll be notified, and your share of the sales proceeds will be credited to your account.
