Options

You have several options for online barter software to manage your barter or trade exchange… Making the best choice not only depends on your specific needs and desires, but also choosing the right business partner to provide and host your barter exchange and member management software while taking future requirements into careful consideration.

Focused

VirtualBarter is a barter software technology company. That’s all VirtualBarter does... Provide world-class ready made or customized ebarter enabling and marketing software to barter exchanges, media companies, organizations and business to business networks.

VirtualBarter is not a barter training company that also offers barter software. We are not a company with software developed by a programmer that was never in the barter business. We are not a barter exchange owner that designed our own software and then decided to license it to other exchanges just to earn some additional revenue. We are not a software company that offers many software programs, one of which is barter software.

The Team

VirtualBarter was founded by an entrepreneurial, computer geek, out-of-the-box ideas type with years of barter domain expertise and software design experience specializing in online informational systems designed to capture and engage the end user to insure retention. You wouldn't go to a general doctor for brain surgery, so why would you go to just anyone for barter software?

OK, so we’re not brain surgeons. We’re not rocket scientists either. But we do have a deep understanding of barter, corporate trade, user interface design, copywriting, software design, application integration, scalable hosting, content delivery, website design and the latest open source technologies. We are a team of barter industry professionals and software design and support specialists that work extremely well together, each delivering on their proficiencies.

The Software

In a word.... Scalable. You can start with a simple $45 online barter exchange and the software will grow with you. Across all levels, Start-up, Basic, Pro, and Enterprise, the transition from one to the next is fast, easy and seamless. Want to add toll free phone postings? No problem. Want to change to a new website design theme? Easy! Want to manage a co-branded exchange for one of your media or organization clients to earn revenues from their member’s trading? Done. Want to combine your marketing site with your barter site so that it looks like one integrated uniform themed site? Piece of cake! Want to add swipe card transactions for processing trades at the point of sale? We can do it.

The User Interface

Select from our basic site design or enhanced array of site designs to give your exchange a unique look and feel or let us match your current web sites and online initiatives to carry your brand and image onto your barter exchange site. Integrated CMS can provide content managed marketing and informational pages that enables an exchange to add pages and change their site content on-the-fly with easy to use content management tools.

The Difference

vBarter software is an open platform using the same design schema and infrastructure as some of the world’s largest technology companies. It is customizable, scalable and integrated with other open source applications to provide companies with a long-term solution that can be enhanced as requirements change. You can even add collaboration apps such as an online forum, blog, mail, calendar and docs that foster communication and increase trade velocity and revenues.

The Hosting

In two words... Fast and Reliable. The vBarter software hosting platform is scalable. VirtualBarter hosts its applications on the Amazon Computing Cloud, the same infrastructure that runs Amazon.com, the company’s $15 billion/year business. If you have 100 members online one minute and 50,000 members online the next, the computing capacity scales instantaneously to demand requirements.

Automated Administration

One or two people can start, run and manage a 300 to 500 member exchange earning $15,000 to $25,000/month. Using enhanced technologies such as HTTPS, API and XML, even small companies can run a multi-faceted enterprise incorporating a barter component to earn over $1 million annually with just 1500 members.

Subscription Based

vBarter software is licensed on a subscription basis starting at just $45 a month. We do not charge a percentage of your revenues. We partner in your success, not in your earnings and livelihood.

It’s Not for Everyone

We believe less is more. There are software providers that believe more is more and their software shows it with more colors than the rainbow, flashing light bulbs, moving targets and nonsensical unrelated content. VirtualBarter does not have tens of thousands of listings in its Global Trade Marketplace featuring offers for yard sale merchandise and off-brand products being sold at 4-5 times their value. But the Marketplace does have millions of dollars in advertising and media offers and hundreds of listings for useful, high demand business products and services.

Try It to Believe It

No long term contracts. Leave anytime and actually get to take your members and data with you. Unlike the competition... No hassles. No problems. No hidden agendas.
