"I have been a member for years, and one of its original fifty members.... I have seen it grow to New Jersey's premier barter exchange. One of the factors contributing to BarterPays! success is its insistence on quality and fair trading. Even though there has been larger national trade exchanges around for awhile, Faye stresses 100% barter and discourages inflating prices, making BarterPays! a quality place to do business."

I want to tell you we put on a fabulous birthday party in January for our daughter Anna who turned five. We hired a member, specializing in parties, come with their Build-a-Bear machine. The attendant also did face-painting and balloon sculptures for all the guests. We had delicious pastries and cake from a bakery member as well. A member florist in Toms River delivered wonderful balloon bouquets too. This was a great indoor winter birthday party for the kids. They were busy the entire time with activities and the entertainment company couldn't have been better. I was thrilled, but even better Anna felt special and loved every minute. What a great way to use barter dollars. I would recommend it to anyone in the network.

"The people that I have dealt with through barter have been wonderful and very professional. Your staff is helpful, and always there to answer any questions I have. I have now spoken to other people in different barter companies, and none of them have had the great personal experience that I have with your company. It is a pleasure to be a part of this organization."

"My wife and I had a large graduation party for our son. At 8am the truck pulled into our driveway and by 10:30 the most spectacular outdoor brunch was ready. My wife and I had nothing to do but enjoy the food and party with our guests.

I've gotten many new patients. It's additional revenue and referrals. If you're considering membership... Just do it! You cannot lose!"

"...to tell you how happy I have been with my BarterPays! relationships...  You have provided us with wonderful sponsors in our communities: I have a great computer guru; a great tent person; great pastries; great signs... and the list could go on and on. I have always appreciated how hard you work for your members and want you to know how pleased I am to be part of BarterPays!."

"... I've been involved with you for many years and words cannot express just how wonderful an alliance it's been. I wasn't very sure in the beginning how it was going to work out, but I trusted you.

As our relationship grew, so did the advantages of being a part of BarterPays!. The clients you send me to buy kitchens have ALL been top shelf and wound up sending me additional non-barter referrals. The BarterPays! members that I've gone to have been fantastic to deal with. You guys (girls) are truly the best. I bless you all for your professionalism, wisdom and kindness. I may have been reluctant in the beginning but now would never think about NOT being a member of the group. BarterPays! is an amazing network of professional business people looking to improve business for all members. Thank you so much for everything."

"... Our dental lab has belonged to several barter exchanges, and has had the experience of bartering over half million dollars to date! Without question, BarterPays! and their staff, has been a tremendous value to our personal lives and our business. To us, the BarterPays!dollars are easily as valuable as CASH!

Using BarterPays! has saved us thousands of dollars personally as our kids enjoyed summer camps, and has replaced thousands of dollars in our business (purchasing printing, portfolios imprinted with our logo, conference facilities, and much more), not to mention the terrific jobs
rebuilding auto transmissions!

BarterPays! is the one barter exchange where you will want to get in the dollars faster than you spend it, because you are offered so much to spend it on!

When you work with your broker, read their emails, faxes, mailings, become aware of what's available, you can't help but make your business more profitable and gain a tremendous edge over the competition. What's more is that your lifestyle will be enhanced easily 30-50%  between the vacations, limo services, Broadway shows(terrific for employees and customers!), and an endless list of products and services!"

"My brother and his girlfriend came back from Las Vegas, and to our family's surprise, they were married! As always, I looked to our members in BarterPays!. In two weeks time I planned a Sunday wedding celebration to include winemaking, followed by a private dinner, with a table appointed with beautiful floral centerpieces and wedding favors. All the [member] business owners were very helpful and stepped up to the plate to help me out. I have been a member since your inception and thoroughly enjoy the cooperative, professional, friendly way the people in BarterPays! conduct business, the quality of your staff and the fun we all have together."

"After being a long time member of BarterPays!, I can honestly say that I have yet to find a down side. As a college counselor I have worked with dozens of BarterPays! members and their children...For every BarterPays! client, come many wonderful recommendations. I actually have an average of two to three cash clients who have been sent by my BarterPays! clients. These cash clients walk in ready to sign up for my services because of the strong recommendations they have received.

When I recall signing up with BarterPays! so many years ago, I thought I would just give it a try. However, it has now become a part of my daily life: I read your many emails, fliers and newsletters and see how I can best spend my barter dollars.

I just want to thank you and your wonderful staff for always being so helpful and supportive."

"I've been a member selling security systems and surveillance equipment to BarterPays! members for over ten years. I've gone on two great Caribbean vacations, painted my house, repaired my car, Botox, great dinners out, dry cleaning...I could go on. This is a great way to make new clients and then have them recommend cash clients. It's always been a bright spot in my day when I call the barter office . Any business owner would be foolish not to take advantage of BarterPays!."

Recently I used the BarterPays! network to purchase a vacuum cleaner, rent a brand new car while my good old reliable was in the shop (on barter), catered dinner for family and friends (you must try the lasagna!) and used my neighborhood florist to surprise my wife with a beautiful arrangement of flowers. All of these businesses provided exceptional service. On a personal note, I don't know if words can truly convey the value my spouse who volunteers to vacuum the entire house because "the machine come with a self-propelled motor". The karate school I used on BarterPays! exceeded my every expectation and is the business that changed my family life forever. My kids attend classes twice a week. Without sounding too much like one of those commercials: karate instruction: $99 with Barter Dollars; Uniform and printed materials; included in package; Seeing your children strengthen their mind and body while exhibiting self-control and self-discipline: PRICELESS.

I'm changing EVERYTHING we do to barter! So far we're very happy. Wish I did this sooner, and listened to you guys when I first met you 8 years ago!

"I found [the BarterPays! member] roofer to be both professional and honest (two virtues not commonly found in that industry). Although the job became more extensive than either of us had expected, he kept us abreast of the progress and performed the job in a timely manner."

"We really want to thank you for all the help and support you gave us with our daughter's wedding. The day was perfect and couldn't have gone any better. The caterer you recommended (Jacques) was outstanding. The food was spectacular and the service even more so. They made sure that the day was one for us to celebrate and not worry about anything. In particular Jay and Mary (the maitre'd) didn't just take care of all our needs but anticipated what was necessary and took care of it before we even noticed. They not only held our hands through this but did it in such a way that we never even noticed how hard they worked. They made it look effortless. All the compliments we received rightfully belonged to them and their staff. Every one of our guests remarked about how friendly and professional the servers and bartenders were. Of course our relationship started with Aimee who was there from beginning to end, making arrangements and recommendations and steering us through what could have been a nightmare but ended up being a dream wedding.

Again, though, it all comes back to you, Lisa and your staff at BarterPays!. Without you guys we could not have given our daughter the wedding she'd always dreamed of. You helped us make it come true and we will always be grateful you were there."

"Our member customers are such nice people and the office staff is extremely accommodating. My wife, Judy, is getting her new kitchen (100% Barter!) and we're all getting fit and trim with our bartered personal trainer. Join BarterPays!. We wish we knew about BarterPays! earlier."

"From the beginning of when we signed up, it has been such a pleasurable experience. The office is very upbeat and is willing to help. They are a very personable staff and go that extra mile to make sure you are completely satisfied with the services they recommend. We probably have more parties than the president!! With four children there is always a reason to celebrate. We have bartered bartenders, disc jockeys, tents, party attractions (martini machines, dunk tanks, cotton candy makers, personalized tee shirts, etc.). Each of these services has been... professional. They all were willing to barter their services and give you exactly... what you expected. Bartering is a whole new way of advertising your business. It gets your name out to the community simply by word-of-mouth and a recommendation from the staff at BarterPays!."

"BarterPays! has extended my reach to new customers; generally those hiring me through BarterPays!, would not have known or considered my company. I've purchased inground sprinklers, car repairs, catering, restaurants, limousine service, advertising, and more It is very easy for me and my customers to find each other through the BarterPays! Nework. And the barter gals are great!"

"The experience I've had with other barter companies is that once they allow half cash, the prices inflate to a point where there's no advantage doing barter deals with that company. The companies turned into garbage. As a result, I just deal with BarterPays!."

We love our son's orthodontist (that we me on BarterPays!). My wife says they are very nice and professional. The other day my son's pallet expander started to bother him. They made an appointment for us the very next day. This was the first time I got an opportunity to meet the doctor, and he could not have been nicer. He adjusted my son's pallet expander on the spot and no more trouble. We also love the holistic spa in the Network. They are always a "go-to" gift for my wife, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, niece, etc., etc. They always rave about the treatments. They keep me out of trouble and looking good.
