Vinted
Vinted is Europe's largest secondhand fashion marketplace, available in 26 countries. Malta is not currently supported — you can download the app and browse listings, but you cannot sell, and there is no direct shipping to Malta. Some Maltese users use parcel forwarding services through France or other EU countries as a workaround, but this adds cost and complexity.
Depop
Depop is a UK-based peer-to-peer marketplace that can technically be used from Malta. There is an active community — the Depop Sellers Malta Facebook group has over 2,600 members. However, Depop has no integrated shipping for Malta. Sellers must arrange their own delivery, and the platform charges a 10% seller fee on every transaction.
Facebook Marketplace & Maltapark
Facebook Marketplace and Maltapark are widely used in Malta for secondhand items. They are free to list on and support in-person meetups. However, neither is fashion-focused, neither offers buyer protection, and neither has secure in-app payments — transactions happen via cash or bank transfer with no platform guarantees.

It offers 0% seller fees, Stripe-powered secure checkout with buyer protection, local delivery via EasiPik lockers (€3.25) or free meetup, AI-assisted listing creation, and optional seller verification.
