ThriftBooks was founded in Seattle in 2003 and is backed by KCB Management. It positions itself as a large independent online seller of used and new books, having sold more than 160 million titles since its inception. The company operates multiple processing centers across the United States that purchase, grade, and distribute used and rare or collectible books. Its cataloging and pricing capabilities are supported by proprietary software that identifies titles and applies dynamic pricing across ThriftBooks.com and other online platforms. Customers shopping on ThriftBooks.com can participate in ReadingRewards, a loyalty program that enables them to earn free books. In April 2026, ThriftBooks Global, LLC announced a partnership with Book Fairies to donate 25,000 children's books to underserved communities in New York City and Long Island.
