Frequently Asked Questions

Questions and answers

Everything you need to know about Tradebank's barter exchange.
What is a barter exchange?
A barter exchange is a group of people who have agreed to accept trade dollars as currency instead of cash. In barter’s simplest form, two companies swap items of equivalent value. Companies offer their products and services through an exchange and receive trade dollar revenue. They can use their new revenue to purchase items or services such as advertising, website design, travel, food, and so much more; all without paying cash!
How does Tradebank work?
Tradebank completes trades for its clients much like a clearinghouse or commercial bank would do for stocks or checks. As an intermediary, Tradebank receives a commission on each transaction and saves all parties the trouble and process of collection, exchange of goods, or matching. The transactions between companies are converted to barter credits or “trade dollars.” A single Trade Dollar is equal to one U.S. dollar in value and is reflected as balances in each company’s “trade account.” Each business is personally managed by a Trade Broker, who promotes the client’s business and assists with sourcing products and services.

Best of all, barter is a business tool that can be used by virtually every business owner, professional, or anyone that wants to conserve cash and increase profits.
Why franchise with Tradebank?
Your Tradebank franchise will provide you instant income, as well as important residual income. You will be fully trained and provided the tools you need to be successful. Plus, you will be on the cutting edge, part of a company that is using proprietary technology (no off-the-shelf barter software here) to revolutionize a multi-billion dollar industry. Most importantly, you are part of an amazing team of people who believe our clients’ stories of how Tradebank has improved their business/lifestyle are at the core of what and why we love this business.
