What You Get

Everything You Need to Start Trading

Zero Cash Fees

No USD out of your pocket. Ever. Your T$20/month membership is paid in Trade Dollars — covered by your signup bonus for the first five months.

Verified Members Only

Every member is real. Every business is checked. Because on this island, your name means everything — and we keep it that way.

Online Directory Listing

Your business shows up in the IslandBarter directory. Members browse it when they need services — new customers find you without a dime of advertising.

Broker Support

Our broker helps match you with the right trades, mediates disputes, and makes sure you get the most out of the exchange. Like having a concierge for your trades.

Tax Reporting Done

We handle the 1099-B paperwork at year end. Barter income is taxable — but we make tracking it painless so you can hand it straight to your accountant.

Trade 24/7

Your Trade Dollar account and the member directory are always online. Browse, connect, and arrange trades whenever it works for you.
