FAQs
A Whirli subscription gives you a token allowance, and you can order any of our toys, so long as the Whirli toys in your home are within your allowance.
Once you have spent your token allowance you can order something else by returning your unwanted toys. We’ll give you back these tokens so you can spend them on something else. We call this a ‘swap’.
Once you have spent your token allowance you can order something else by returning your unwanted toys. We’ll give you back these tokens so you can spend them on something else. We call this a ‘swap’.
When you sign up to Whirli, you can choose between 4 plans, which come with a token allowance:
You use these tokens to order toys. Our toys are priced in tokens, where 1 Whirli token is equivalent to around £1 RRP, so a toy worth £20 brand new would be priced at 20 Whirli tokens.
For example, 80 tokens is equivalent to around £80 RRP worth of toys.
| Small toy box | 80 Token |
| Medium toy box | 120 Token |
| Large toy box | 160 Token |
| X-Large toy box | 240 Token |

For example, 80 tokens is equivalent to around £80 RRP worth of toys.
No, your token allowance is fixed for the duration of your subscription. You will need to make a swap (that’s code for ‘return your unwanted toys’) before we return tokens to your account, ready for you to order something else.
Our tokens are great value. For example, 80 tokens allows you to order toys worth around £80 RRP at any one time. You can swap these toys at any time, meaning the value of the toys you are playing with quickly adds up. Plus it’s much better for our planet too.

We always recommend spending all your tokens so that you get the most out of your subscription. Any unspent tokens won’t be carried over to the next month.
It may be your family has fallen in love with a toy and you want to keep hold of it for a little longer. Rest assured, you will never spend more than the RRP value of a toy with Whirli, no matter how long you play with it for. That’s why we pledge that if you have a toy for 12 months, it’s yours to keep forever at no extra cost, no questions asked.

My 4 year old calls it "consolidating" his toys
We've been Whirli customers for years and have the biggest subscription. He tells me when he's ready to send his toys off for another kid to enjoy. What a relief to not have to constantly donate, rehome, or throw toys out!

Whirli is a fantastic company
Whirli is a fantastic company, particularly for those who are new to being parents, trying to avoid accumulating baby toys which are soon outgrown. I've used Whirli since 2020 and my three children have benefitted in full! Great communication from the team when required and the returns process is easy. Thank you for providing a great service!

Whirli box day is exciting for us all
I love Whirli as much as my granddaughters do. Whirli box day is exciting for us all. There is always a big hit in the collection and sometimes the most unexpected toy. Thank you.

Highly recommend
I have been using Whirli since my first child was tiny, and have loved it. It has saved us space, money, and guilt on sending unwanted toys to landfill! It also allows us to try out toys without having to buy them. Children change so quickly, I've been able to borrow things for a short while to match their passing interests. Would highly recommend!
Claire Gough, Mum of two
Easy, sustainable and always something new
Their returns process is so easy. There's always new toys for my kids and they're easy to find by age group. It's also a more sustainable way to enjoy new toys without contributing to landfill.
Anita Guo, Mum of two
Perfect for the exploring phase
The toy subscription has been perfect for my little one's exploring phase as he goes from baby to toddler and wants to explore endless items but gets bored of most toys after a couple of weeks. We've ended a locker selection from Whirli and sometimes been surprised by his preferences! Would highly recommend Whirli.
