How To Make Money As A Student
We know how challenging balancing finances can be at University so here are our top tips on how to make money as a student!
1. Sell on the Hazaar App
Sell preloved items including clothes, costumes, household items and textbooks to other students on campus using Hazaar, the student marketplace app. With no wasted money on postage or packaging you simply meet up on campus to hand over the item. Everyone on the app is a verified student or small business owner local to your university to ensure student safety. Scamming is also a thing of the past as payment is released in the presence of both the buyer and the seller through scanning of a QR code.
