Go to My Books and click List your First Book (or List more Books). If your profile is incomplete, you will be asked to complete it first on My Profile.

On the listing form, add book details (title, writer, condition, photos, etc.), review estimated Book Points, and submit. Your book then appears to seekers in Browse Books.

You start with 200 Book Points after registration. You earn points when your listed book is exchanged, and you spend points when you receive a book from another user.

Check your complete points status on My BPWallet: Total Earned, Total Spent, Total Balance, Locked Points (reserved for lock requests), and Available Points.

Open Book Exchange History to view your cumulative impact: Trees Saved, Water Saved (Liters), and Carbon Reduced (kg), plus your Books Given and Books Received history.

Prerequisites: You can only start chat if your available Book Points balance (not locked) is equal to or greater than the book's required points.

Find a book in Browse Books or open its detail page, then use chat to discuss availability, condition, and pickup location with the owner.

After both sides agree, submit a lock request. Important: The required Book Points are immediately reserved/locked in your wallet while the request is pending. Once the owner accepts, coordinate physical pickup. After receiving the physical book, complete the exchange confirmation (by clicking on "Book Received" action on book Card ) so wallet and history are updated for both Book Seeker and Book owner.

In My Books, check incoming messages and lock requests. Review requester messages, then use Accept or Reject for each lock request.

After accepting, coordinate handover directly with the seeker (place/time/contact), also ensure Book Seeker confirm the physical book collection by clicking on "Book Received" option in app on the book card, as without that book points and exchange history will not be updated for book seeker as well as book owner. If plans change, you can release the lock from the confirmed lock section so the book becomes available again.

Occasionally, a book owner may accidentally list a book with an incorrect MRP or an inaccurate condition. If you discover this during the physical exchange, follow these steps to keep the transaction fair:

• Step 1: The Book Seeker should remove their current book lock.
• Step 2: The Book Owner updates the MRP or book condition in the app to reflect the actual state of the book.
• Step 3: The Book Seeker sends a new lock request based on the updated details.
• Step 4: The Book Owner accepts the new lock request.
• Step 5: Once the details match, the Book Seeker collects the book and confirms Book Received in the app to complete the exchange.

Use the Contact Us page and submit your name, email, subject, and full issue details. Include book name, user details, and timeline so the admin team can resolve faster.

Open the book detail page and click Report Listing. Select one or more relevant prohibited policy categories and submit the report. You can review policy details in Terms of Service before reporting.

Go to My Books, find the book card you want to edit, and click Edit. You will be redirected to the book listing form with all current details pre-filled. Update any fields (name, writer, photos, description, condition, etc.) and submit to save changes.

Only book owners can delete. Go to My Books, find the book card, and click Delete.

Warning: Deletion is permanent and irreversible. All engagement data including conversations, lock requests, likes, views, and shares will be deleted and cannot be retrieved. Confirm carefully before proceeding.

After reading the book you received from other book owners, if you want to list that book again for re-sharing, you can do so by following the same process as listing a fresh book.
