How Barter Works

As a member of Barter It, you sell products and services to other members. Instead of being paid in the standard cash format, you are paid in Barter It trade dollars (for valuation purposes, one Barter It trade dollar is equivalent to one U.S. dollar). The value of each sale you make on barter is credited to your account The trade dollars can be spent for the purchase of any product or service available form other business within the Barter It network.

In a sense, Barter It works much like a bank providing record keeping and administration for your barter activities. At the end of each month, clients receive an itemized statement showing their trades (sales and purchases) and balances.
