WHAT IS BARTERCARD

Read below to learn why Bartercard is the world’s premier transaction card for business decision makers:

Benefits of Bartercard BOOST SALES  

Bartercard members prefer to purchase goods and services and pay for these with their own goods and services, as opposed to non-member suppliers who only deal in cash. This results in increased sales opportunities for members and new customers outside their normal geographic market, as Bartercard members go out of their way to buy from another Bartercard member. Bartercard members also deliver new customers through positive word-of-mouth.

 

BOOST YOUR CUSTOMER BASE

Bartercard promotes member businesses to its extensive global network of over 55,000 members (over 23,000 in Australia alone) who have joined Bartercard for trading opportunities...
 

BOOST CASHFLOW

Bartercard enables members to easily pay for business and personal lifestyle expenses with their own goods and services. Using this advanced form of barter in place of spending cash, enables conservation of cashflow for unscheduled expenditure and investment into the growth of their business, amongst many other opportunities to benefit business..

 

GEOGRAPHICALLY EXPAND YOUR CUSTOMER BASE

Bartercard members can cost-effectively expand their business market reach by using Bartercard’s nation-wide and global directory service, plus the global e-Commerce and Online Auction portals. All global member businesses, including over 23,000 Australian member businesses, can access these directories and portals for trading purposes.

 

REDUCE DEBT INTEREST EXPENSE

Purchasing goods and services using Bartercard Trade Dollars frees up cash that many Bartercard members then use to pay down interest bearing debt burdens. In addition, Bartercard provides an interest-free line of credit.

 

REDUCE EXCESS STOCK/PERSONNEL TIME

By trading through Bartercard, member businesses can sell idle or excess inventory or personnel time to the expanded customer base of member businesses that are looking for opportunities to trade, rather than spend cash.

 

BARTERCARD HOLDS THE MEMBER'S HAND TO TRADE

An account manager (also referred to as a Trade Co-ordinator) is assigned to manage relationships between members and to assist them in selling and finding deals through the Bartercard exchange. This service mentors members in how to take advantage of bartering to boost their business and lifestyle, find buying opportunities, and promote their business throughout the trade exchange network.

 

ONLINE SERVICES

Bartercard offer a range of online services to facilitate easy trading. These include:

•    24 hour Online Auction site
•    eMARKETplace
•    Online directory
 

HOW BARTERCARD WORKS

Bartercard enables member businesses to exchange goods and services with other member businesses without using valuable cash, or having to engage in the direct two-way swap of goods and/or services.

Members gain access to a network of other member businesses. Each member is issued an account number, a transaction card, an interest- free line of credit and access to Bartercard’s printed and online business directory, offering members a world of trading opportunities.

Members use their Bartercard transaction card to trade anything from stationery to real estate, all facilitated by Bartercard’s global transaction technology. Bartercard operates similar to the common credit and debit card systems, as operated by Visa and MasterCard.

Members earn Bartercard Trade Dollars for the goods and services they sell and this value is recorded electronically in the member’s account database. The Bartercard Trade Dollar is recognised by the Australian Taxation Office and financial institutions as having the same value as the Australian Dollar.

This service particularly benefits the world’s largest business sector – small and medium enterprises (SMEs) – which are often faced with fluctuating cashflow, slow sales growth and high business financing rates.
