Used goods marketplace Vinted is now worth 8 billion euros

The immensely popular online marketplace for used goods, Vinted, is emerging as one of Europe's most valuable startups.
The company's current shareholders sold shares to new buyers in a so-called secondary transaction round, and Vinted's market value was determined to be a staggering 8 billion euros.

Lithuanian Vinted reports that the company's revenue rose to over one billion euros in 2025 - and this figure includes only the commission fees collected by Vinted itself, not the value of products sold through it.

The company operates in 26 countries and is already profitable, meaning the company did not raise any working capital for itself through a share issue this time, but rather allowed existing shareholders to sell shares to new owners (the company is not yet publicly listed).
