About Bartercard

Bartercard assists more than 30,000 small to medium businesses in Australia and New Zealand (55,000 globally) to barter their goods and services – without spending cash or the challenge of a direct swap. Although the concept of barter is thousands of years old, bartering through Bartercard is an innovative way of combining modern Internet technology, a network of businesses and direct and indirect marketing channels to increase a business’ customer base, sales and profit, and improve cashflow.

Bartercard was founded in 1991 on the Gold Coast, Queensland, and has grown to become the world’s largest barter exchange. It is a franchise system that operates in 12 countries across Europe, Asia and the Middle East.

Our Vision

Bartercard’s vision is “to be the most recognised and respected business-to-business (B2B) service provider that facilitates increased profit, customers, sales and cashflow for small to medium sized enterprises.”
