2.0 PARTICIPATION IN THE TRADEONBARTER CLUB

Nature of the Parties
2.1. TRADEONBARTER is a provider of the Services described in the Member Agreement.
2.2. TRADEONBARTER contracts with franchisees and independent licensed brokers (collectively, "Brokers"), for the provision, by these Brokers, of member support or brokerage services associated with operation of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. Brokers are independent contractors and operate from business locations other than our executive office in Oregon. Brokers are not employees, agents, joint ventures or partners of TRADEONBARTER, and their authority to bind TRADEONBARTER is strictly limited by applicable policies and contractual obligations that are binding on Brokers. As independent contractors, Brokers are solely responsible for the employment, acts and omissions, control and direction of their employees and assignees.
2.3. Member is a business entity or approved individual that desires to exchange its products, services, materials and/or labor ("products and services") with other members of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB  (or other permitted parties), accepting "TRADEONBARTER BILLS" (defined in Section 4.1. below) as payment, and subscribes to TRADEONBARTER's record keeping, payment processing and related services.

We reserve the right to approve, deny, suspend, or terminate membership or use of an Account by any business or individual, in our sole discretion, for any reason or no reason. Our services are available only to, and may only be used by, business entities or individuals who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law, including those with respect to payments, transactions, and fees.

We reserve the right to request documentation supporting your TRADEONBARTER bill valuation of a listed product or service with evidence of other valid USD sales at the same price. Failure to provide adequate documentation of USD sales to support the listed price may result in the deletion of any Member's listing from the TRADEONBARTER CLUB.

* “T-Bills” should not be confused with Treasury Bills. 
2.9. Transaction Procedure. We will be obligated to process the transfer of TRADEONBARTER BILLS represented by online transactions, TRADEONBARTER checks or other Buyer authorized posting documents only when the procedures outlined below are followed:
2.9.1. Online Transactions.

  • Members who wish to use the Website to list a product or service for sale, make a purchase, or make a payment, must enter their approved password. It is important that you guard the identity of this password because the use of the password to make a purchase represents your consent as Buyer to debit your Account;
  • Seller must approve a transaction initiated on the Website by a Buyer, resulting in the transfer of TRADEONBARTER BILLS from Buyer's Account to Seller's Account; and
  • When using Services on our Website, you are subject to any posted policies or rules applicable to services you use through the Website, which may be amended from time to time. All such policies or rules are hereby incorporated into these Rules. For additional terms and conditions governing your use of the Website, see Section 6.2 of these Rules, "Website Usage."

2.9.2. Document-Based Transactions.

  • TRADEONBARTER checks and other Buyer authorized transaction documents are properly completed with account numbers, names, date, and signature;
  • An authorization number is secured from TRADEONBARTER Authorization and Transaction Posting System ("TPS System") at 1-(503) 987-0295 or through the Website for each transaction;
  • Authorization is obtained at the time of sale, provided however, that the authorization will expire unless an authorized Broker (or the TRADEONBARTER corporate office, if applicable) receives the approved transaction documents within fourteen (14) days from the date of authorization.
  • Seller's Broker typically posts TRADEONBARTER CLUB transactions, not the Buyer's Broker. Seller and Seller's Broker must maintain any written documentation of the transaction (online shopping cart invoice, contract, invoice, etc.), including an authorizing signature from the Buyer.  It is the responsibility of the Seller to provide Seller's Broker (or the TRADEONBARTER corporate office, if applicable) any approved transaction documents within fourteen (14) days from the date authorized.  In case of a disputed document-based transaction, if no signed authorization from the Buyer is maintained, the transaction may be reversed at the Buyer's written request.
  • A Seller may post transactions to the TPS System. TRADEONBARTER BILLS going into the Seller's account for transactions posted through the TPS System will be placed on hold for 48 hours. Transactions posted on the TPS System are subject to verification. It is the Seller's responsibility to receive, retain, and produce upon request, written authorization from the Buyer for each transaction posted. Failure to provide such documentation upon request will result in the transaction being reversed. We, in our sole discretion, may reverse or modify a transaction posted on the TPS System.
  • Outstanding TRADEONBARTER checks and other Buyer authorized transaction documents are considered void twelve (12) months from the date written. We are under no obligation to post TRADEONBARTER checks and other Buyer authorized transaction documents that are submitted more than twelve (12) months after the transaction;
  • We reserve the right to refuse to issue an authorization number if: (i) the Buyer does not have sufficient TRADEONBARTER BILLS to cover the purchase; (ii) either party is not a Member in good standing (See Section 2.16. below); (iii) TRADEONBARTER has reason to believe the transaction is prohibited by law or by the terms of these Rules; or (iv) the transaction is not authorized by the Buyer;

2.9.3. All Transactions.

  • Submission of improperly completed Buyer authorized transaction documents to TRADEONBARTER or Brokers may result in delays or denial of posting.
  • International transactions are always denoted in the currency of the Seller's country. The TRADEONBARTER BILLS deducted from the Buyer's account will be converted to the currency of the Seller's country at the rate available at the time of posting;
  • It is the responsibility of the Buyer to notify Seller that Buyer is paying with TRADEONBARTER BILLS prior to making a TRADEONBARTER CLUB purchase. Buyer understands and agrees that by entering into a TRADEONBARTER CLUB transaction Buyer authorizes TRADEONBARTER to debit TRADEONBARTER BILLS from Buyer's Account for the amount of the transaction, and charge Buyer all applicable transaction fees.
  • Prior to completing certain transactions, Buyer may be required by TRADEONBARTER to complete specified forms, including a Release of Liability and Assumption of Risk Agreement releasing TRADEONBARTER from claims related to the transaction.
  • Seller understands and agrees that by approving or entering into a TRADEONBARTER CLUB transaction with Buyer, Seller authorizes TRADEONBARTER to credit TRADEONBARTER BILLS to Seller's Account for the amount of the transaction, and charge Seller all applicable transaction fees.
  • TRADEONBARTER is not under any obligation to review transactions after one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of the transaction posting. We may, in our sole discretion, review a transaction older than 180 days, if we deem it appropriate. When a review is undertaken due to a Member complaint, such review may lead to the reversal of the transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we have no obligation to monitor or evaluate members' actions or inactions, or the fairness or lawfulness of any transaction conducted through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB.

2.10. Transaction Assistance. We intend to use reasonable commercial efforts to assist Members to transact among themselves by making Member information available on the Website and maintaining current Member information. In addition, we may appoint, at our sole and absolute discretion, independent persons, or entities as Brokers to provide information on Members' products and services available through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. Whenever you either enter into a transaction, or make an offer to enter into a transaction through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, you acknowledge that (i) the sole parties to any TRADEONBARTER CLUB transaction are the Buyers and Sellers involved and not TRADEONBARTER (unless TRADEONBARTER notifies a Member in writing that TRADEONBARTER is acting as a Buyer or Seller in a transaction), (ii) each transaction is entered into voluntarily and incurs normal risks associated with any business transaction, (iii) each Member will engage in appropriate due diligence, with the assistance of professional counsel and consultants if appropriate, prior to entering into the transaction, and (iv) TRADEONBARTER is not a guarantor of any transaction or TRADEONBARTER bill transfer or liable in any manner for damages related to the transaction. We will use reasonable commercial efforts to record transactions accurately and to administer the Rules in accordance with their terms. However, the initiative for using our services for your economic benefit is exclusively yours and TRADEONBARTER does not guarantee or warrant any level of business through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB.
2.11. Safe Transactions. You bear sole responsibility for the authentication of the identity of any person with whom you may transact. You acknowledge that authentication is difficult, particularly on the Internet, and that TRADEONBARTER does not confirm any person's purported identity. You should communicate directly with potential trading partners and establish your own standards for identity authentication. You should use caution, common sense and practice safe transactions when using the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. There may also be, and you accept full responsibility for, any risks associated with dealing with foreign nationals and persons acting under false pretense.
2.12. Availability of Products and Services. TRADEONBARTER is not responsible if Member cannot find, and does not represent, warrant, or guarantee that Member will find, specific products or services to purchase, or customers for their products and services within the TRADEONBARTER CLUB.
2.13. Prohibited Products and Services. Refer to our "Prohibited or Restricted Products and Services Policy" which is part of these Rules and incorporated by reference. No Member shall offer for sale or purchase any product or service through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB in a manner that violates federal, state, provincial, or local law, and no offer to sell or purchase any such prohibited product or service shall be deemed to be authorized by TRADEONBARTER. Only Members holding the appropriate license may sell products and services that are permitted to be sold only by licensed sellers under federal, state, provincial, or local law, including but not limited to travel services, alcohol, real estate, and professional services.
2.14. Real Estate Transactions; Travel Services. Refer to our "Real Estate Policy" and our "Travel Service Policy" which are part of these Rules and incorporated by reference.
2.15. No Control over Member and Third-Party Information.

Members and third parties are solely responsible for their respective information.
2.16. Definition of "Member in Good Standing." A Member who (i) has completed a Member Application and accepted our Member Agreement; (ii) complies with the current Rules and any other agreements in effect with TRADEONBARTER, (iii) is current in the payment of all Fees (defined in Section 3 - Continuing Service and Transaction Fees) owing to us under this Member Agreement, (iv) is not in Default (defined in Section 5 - Breach of Rules; Prohibitions; Termination), and (v) has a valid Member account, is a "Member in good standing." Only Members in good standing are entitled to the services of TRADEONBARTER.
2.17. Advertising Authorization. Unless we are otherwise notified in writing, you authorize us and our Brokers to inform other Members of the availability of your products and services. This authorization includes, without limitation, listings in local, regional, or national directories, Website listings, e-mail broadcasts, and other printed materials. You acknowledge and agree that Member information that will be publicly available may be the name of the business, address, contact person, telephone number, fax number, email address, website URL, and product and service availability. We are neither a party to these sales listings nor responsible for their accuracy. Any inaccuracies should be immediately reported to us, in writing. We reserve the right to restrict or deny the publishing or promotion of products and services that we, in our sole discretion, deem to be inappropriate.
2.18. Consent to Receive Electronic Mail from TRADEONBARTER. You hereby expressly consent to receive from us (and from our Brokers) electronic mail messages that we may send from time to time, in our sole discretion, containing information promoting the sale, lease, or other disposition of products and services made available through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, or containing information regarding the operation of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. You agree that we are not responsible for, and do not control, represent, or endorse the accuracy, reliability, integrity, or legality of any email, advertising, or other information provided by Members or Brokers.
2.19. Record Keeping
2.19.1. We issue periodic statements to you reflecting your Account activity and amounts due and owing to TRADEONBARTER. Statements are deemed accurate as produced unless you notify the TRADEONBARTER corporate office in writing of any discrepancy, within four weeks of the statement date. We are under no obligation to review transactions entered on an Account one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the posting of the transaction. Interim Account activity summaries may be made available at the Website. If you request copies of processed TRADEONBARTER checks or other Buyer authorized transaction documents over one hundred eighty (180) days old, you may be charged a USD research fee per copy unless the examination reveals an accounting error.
2.19.2. TRADEONBARTER operates on a four (4) week accounting cycle ("Cycle") that may or may not conform to any given calendar month. Each Cycle begins on a Friday and ends at midnight on the fourth Thursday following.  Seller fees for product or services are due and paid at the time of transaction.
2.19.3. We have the right, but not the obligation, to reverse transactions due to non-compliance with these Rules or failure to provide products or services. Transactions are subject to final audit and verification by TRADEONBARTER and, in case of inaccuracies, non-compliance, or non-fulfillment; we may debit or credit your Account without notice.
2.20. Funds in Transit. The following applies to transactions involving special or long distance orders, construction jobs, service work, long-term leases and other work-in-progress transactions. TRADEONBARTER bill transactions should be conducted in the same manner as USD transactions. For instance, Buyer should consider obtaining a written estimate or description of product or service and price before authorizing work to begin or shipments to be made. Before starting work or shipping a product, Seller should consider obtaining a deposit or down payment in TRADEONBARTER BILLS in the same manner as a seller would in a USD transaction. The Escrow Service (ESCROW) Program has been designed to assist Members with transactions in excess of $1,500 TRADEONBARTER BILLS, or those transactions that require more time than the TRADEONBARTER authorization process allows (14 days). The ESCROW Program is designed to assure the Seller that the Buyer's TRADEONBARTER bill funds have been set aside for the specific transaction and to assure the Buyer that the Seller will not receive the funds until Seller has delivered the goods and services purchased according to the terms and conditions of the sale. A TRADEONBARTER check or other authorized transaction documents and a ESCROW Initiation Form must be submitted to the TRADEONBARTER corporate office before funds may be deposited into a ESCROW account. Before funds can be released from a ESCROW account, a ESCROW Release Form must be completed and signed by the Buyer and submitted to the TRADEONBARTER corporate office. In the event the Buyer does not promptly execute an ESCROW Release Form after receiving the goods or services purchased, TRADEONBARTER will notify the Buyer that the TRADEONBARTER BILLS held will be released to the Seller in five business days, unless the Buyer provides a written explanation describing why Buyer is disputing the transaction. If and when Buyer disputes a transaction, it is Buyer's responsibility to pay any applicable shipping costs to return the product or goods to Seller. TRADEON BARTER may use an outside party to manage Escrow Program, a separate management fee may occur.
2.21. Products or Services sold by TRADEONBARTER. Although not normally involved in the transaction between Buyers and Sellers, TRADEONBARTER may on occasion act as principal but only after notifying a Member in writing that it is acting as a Buyer or Seller in a particular transaction.
ON ALL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OFFERED OR SOLD BY TRADEONBARTER, THE ONLY WARRANTY TRADEONBARTER MAKES IS THAT IT HAS TITLE FREE AND CLEAR FROM ANY LIEN OR ENCUMBRANCE. ALL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES ARE SOLD "AS IS, WHERE IS." TRADEONBARTER MAKES NO WARRANTY EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE AS TO THE MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES SOLD IN TRANSACTIONS IN WHICH TRADEONBARTER MAY ACT AS PRINCIPAL, AND BUYER SHALL LOOK SOLELY TO THE MANUFACTURER, DISTRIBUTOR OR RETAILER OF SUCH MERCHANDISE FOR ANY WARRANTY.
2.22. Member Transactions with Brokers. Brokers and their employees, both in the United States and Canada, are free to buy and sell in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB with TRADEONBARTER BILLS on their own behalf and for their own account. Every provision of the Rules applies equally to Brokers and their employees, as well as to Members. With respect to your transactions with Brokers and their employees, you agree that (i) you will not hold TRADEONBARTER responsible or liable for your transactions with Brokers and their employees, or for their content, actions or inactions, the items they list or the products and services they offer, and (ii) you will indemnify and hold TRADEONBARTER harmless from any third-party claim arising from a transaction or attempted transaction with a Broker or its employees when Broker is acting as a principal to the transaction.
2.23. Taxes. Each Member must provide a valid and correct taxpayer identification number (or, if applicable, social security number) to TRADEONBARTER before engaging in any transaction through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. By signing a Member application or agreeing to the terms of the Member Agreement, you thereby declare and affirm that your taxpayer identification number (or, if applicable, social security number) you provide to TRADEONBARTER is valid and correct. Members shall be solely responsible to collect, remit, declare, and report all applicable federal, state, provincial, local, and municipal taxes, including appropriate sales and excise taxes and GST, resulting from any transaction involving TRADEONBARTER BILLS to the appropriate taxing authorities as required by law. Under no circumstances are we responsible to pay any sales, excise, GST, use, or other taxes on behalf of any Member. Transactions involving TRADEONBARTER BILLS are generally treated as taxable events for federal, state, provincial, and local tax purposes. It is your responsibility to seek independent professional tax advice as needed. The declaration and reporting of applicable taxes resulting from TRADEONBARTER bill transactions rests solely with you. In the United States, we are required by law to submit a 1099B for each Member Account to the IRS each year reporting the gross sales of the Account. In Canada, sale transactions are deemed within the purview of the Income Tax Act, and TRADEONBARTER bill transactions should be reported by the Member to Revenue Canada per applicable law. You agree to indemnify and hold TRADEONBARTER harmless for any actions we take to comply with federal, state or provincial, and local laws.
2.24. Disputes
2.24.1. Transaction disputes concerning the quality, fulfillment, or deliverability of products and/or services purchased are between the Buyer and Seller ONLY, and TRADEONBARTER has no responsibility in connection therewith other than recording transactions. You should exercise the same discretion in evaluating sellers, inspecting products, conducting due diligence, and ensuring delivery in TRADEONBARTER bill transactions as you do in USD transactions. We are not responsible for use of TRADEONBARTER BILLS by unauthorized persons or for transactions that do not comply with the Rules, nor are we under any obligation to reverse unauthorized or noncompliant transactions. TRADEONBARTER is not a Buyer or Seller in any transaction unless it notifies Member in writing.
2.24.2. In situations in which Buyer disputes having entered into a transaction, it shall be the responsibility of the Seller or the Seller's Broker to provide TRADEONBARTER with written verification from the Buyer authorizing the transaction (e.g., signed TRADEONBARTER check or other authorized transaction documents). If such documentation is not received by TRADEONBARTER by the later of: (i) five (5) business days of TRADEONBARTER's notice of the dispute, or (ii) fourteen (14) days from the date the transaction was authorized, the transaction will be reversed. We are under no obligation to reverse transactions after one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of the disputed transaction posting. Except in the case of an accounting error, if a transaction is reversed, Member may still be charged the appropriate transaction fees.
2.24.3. In situations in which Buyer disputes the fulfillment or deliverability of products and/or services, it is the Buyer's responsibility to complete and submit to TRADEONBARTER corporate headquarters a transaction dispute form, available on the Website ("Transaction Dispute Form"). TRADEONBARTER, in its sole discretion, will determine, in accordance with these Rules, whether or not the dispute warrants its involvement. In cases in which disputes are deemed valid and within 180 days of the posting of the transaction, TRADEONBARTER will forward the Transaction Dispute Form to the Seller, requesting a response within five (5) business days. Upon receipt of Seller's timely response, our Transaction Dispute Department will review all available information and TRADEONBARTER will determine in its sole discretion whether the transaction remains as posted, or if the transaction shall be reversed. Failure of Seller to respond to the Transaction Dispute Form will, in most cases, result in the disputed transaction being reversed. Neither TRADEONBARTER nor the Transaction Dispute Department is under any obligation to review transactions after one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of the disputed transaction posting.
2.24.4. If you have three (3) Transaction Dispute Forms filed against you within a one (1) year period which we deem to be valid disputes in accordance with these Rules, you may be deemed to be in Default (defined below) and your Account may be terminated in accordance with Section 5 - Breach of Rules; Prohibitions; Termination.

4.0 ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRADEONBARTER CLUB  AND TRADEONBARTER BILLS
4.1. Nature of TRADEONBARTER BILLS. The term "TRADEONBARTER bill" refers to a book entry with an assigned arbitrary value that serves as a practical method of recording the value of every transaction that results in a transfer of products and services among Members of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. TRADEONBARTER BILLS denote the right to receive products or services available from other Members, or the obligation to provide products or services to other Members. TRADEONBARTER BILLS are not legal tender, securities, or commodities, are not an obligation of TRADEONBARTER, and cannot be redeemed for USD or legal tender. In no event shall TRADEONBARTER be required to refund, redeem or pay any amounts to any Member for any TRADEONBARTER BILLS, or allow conversion or liquidation of TRADEONBARTER BILLS into USD or legal tender. TRADEONBARTER BILLS may not be bought or sold for USD. Offers to buy or sell TRADEONBARTER BILLS for USD can lead to immediate termination of Member's Account and forfeiture without recourse of all TRADEONBARTER bill balances. Transactions found to be in violation of this provision can be reversed without notice and participating Members' Accounts closed. For purposes of transacting and record keeping within the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, one TRADEONBARTER bill shall be assigned a value equivalent to one dollar of the country in which the Member's Account resides. TRADEONBARTER BILLS shall not be transferable, and shall not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by Members in any way, directly or indirectly, except as required for the following purposes, and in each case in accordance with these Rules:

  • the bona fide payment for products and services through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB ;
  • the payment of Fees;
  • as otherwise provided in the Member Agreement or these Rules;

TRADEONBARTER disclaims any and all responsibility for the negotiability of TRADEONBARTER BILLS.
4.2. Member's Account
4.2.1. General. TRADEONBARTER is not a bank. Your Account is denominated solely in TRADEONBARTER BILLS (except to the extent you may be billed USD Fees pursuant to Section 3 - Continuing Service and Transaction Fees). Your Account is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other such governmental or quasi-governmental agency. All TRADEONBARTER BILLS generated by transactions entered into by Member will be commingled in your Account, and can be used (i) by you or any Authorized User as Buyers in other transactions, (ii) by us to set-off any amounts (including, but not limited to, Fees) denominated in TRADEONBARTER BILLS owed by Member under the Member Agreement, (iii) by us to reduce any negative Account balance arising from transactions previously entered into by you or any Authorized User. We will not pay interest on positive Account balances and do not guarantee that there will be adequate TRADEONBARTER bill reserves to cover all outstanding claims against the TRADEONBARTER CLUB.
4.2.2. Positive and Negative Balances. A positive Account balance (i.e. a credit balance) denotes your right to purchase goods and services offered by other Members willing to accept TRADEONBARTER BILLS in payment for those products and services. A negative Account balance (i.e. a debit balance) creates an obligation on the Member to sell products or services to other Members to the extent of the TRADEONBARTER BILL deficit, and remains a Member obligation upon Account closure (see Section 3.20).
4.2.3. Restrictions. We may, in our sole discretion:

  • Restrict the use of TRADEONBARTER BILLS deposited in the Account for a transaction, for a period of time after the completion of such transaction, and thereafter pending resolution of any dispute regarding that or any other transaction posted to your Account;
  • Modify, reduce, or eliminate any Credit Line assigned to an Account, for any reason or for no reason, with or without prior notice to Member;
  • Require escrow, vesting or other procedures before the Member can use TRADEONBARTER BILLS in the Account, or
  • Cancel, freeze, and/or otherwise restrict sales, purchases, or the use of TRADEONBARTER BILLS in the Account by the Member in connection with a Default by Member (see Section 5 - Breach of Rules; Prohibitions; Termination).

4.2.4. Affiliate Accounts. Affiliate accounts are subject to the following provisions and benefits:

  • A completed Membership Application is required to set up an affiliate-account;
  • The affiliate-account must remain in good standing;
  • Credit will be assessed on Affiliate performance activity equal to 5% of annual value of new vendor’s product and/or services provided to TradeonBarter Club, paid in TradeonBarter Bills.
  • Credit will be assessed on Affiliate performance activity equal to 5% of new buyer buy-in amount converted into TradeonBarter Club, paid in buyer’s currency.

4.2.5. Inactive Status. TRADEONBARTER or a Member's assigned Broker may classify a Member's Account as "Inactive" if TRADEONBARTER or Broker determines Member has not transacted in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB for at least six (6) consecutive Billing Cycles. You may initiate Inactive Status with respect to the products and services offered by you as a Member, ONLY during the Cycle(s) you maintain a positive TRADEONBARTER bill balance. To initiate Inactive Status, you must (i) give advance written notice to your assigned Broker and (ii) inform other Members who call for products and services that you are in Inactive Status and will be accepting TRADEONBARTER BILLS in the near future. While in Inactive Status, you are still subject to Fees defined in Section 3 (Continuing Service and Transaction Fees); however, your product and service listings will be removed from the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. A Broker may discontinue its service to an Inactive Member.
4.2.6. Abandoned Account. An Account will be considered abandoned if Member has not entered into a transaction over any period of thirteen (13) consecutive Billing Cycles. We may, in our sole discretion, terminate an abandoned Account in accordance with Section 5 - Breach of Rules; Prohibitions; Termination (regardless of whether the abandoned Account has a positive or negative Account balance), and any positive Account balance will be transferred out of the Account. Member will not receive any value for such positive Account balance. If the Account has a negative Account balance at the time of termination, you agree to pay TRADEONBARTER an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the negative Account balance (see Section 3.20). In TRADEONBARTER's sole discretion, abandoned accounts may be reinstated per Section 5.5.
4.2.7. Security Interest. You hereby grant TRADEONBARTER a security interest in all TRADEONBARTER BILLS credited, and to be credited to your Account, to secure the amount of all of your unpaid Fees and other obligations to TRADEONBARTER (whether payable in TRADEONBARTER BILLS or USD), whether incurred by you or any Authorized User. If Member becomes insolvent or bankrupt, all USD Fees shall be due and payable in full. TRADEONBARTER shall have the option, in lieu of filing as a creditor, of treating the TRADEONBARTER bill balance as equal in value to the amount of USD Fees owing, and terminating the Account; provided however, that if TRADEONBARTER does receive all of its USD Fees in full, TRADEONBARTER shall reinstate the TRADEONBARTER BILLS to the Member's Account.
4.2.8. Special Offers and Promotions. We may, in our sole discretion, make special offers and promotions, such as reduced Fees, incentives or other benefits, available to all or some Members without creating any obligation on our part, other than as explicitly set forth in such offers or promotions, including, without limitation, any obligation to continue such offers or promotions on an ongoing basis. We may also enter into contracts with third party providers to offer their products or services to Members through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB in exchange for payment from Members partially in the currency of the country in which the Member's Account resides and partially in TRADEONBARTER BILLS. We, at our sole discretion, may designate an exclusive provider of particular classes of products or services within the TRADEONBARTER CLUB and prohibit other Members from transacting such classes of products or services during any period of exclusivity granted to the third party provider.
4.2.9. Access to Other Trade Exchanges. We may, in our sole discretion, permit trading between members of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB and other TRADEONBARTER approved trade exchanges. Before Member engages in transactions with members of other TRADEONBARTER approved trade exchanges, Member may be required to agree to, and comply with, any rules and terms and conditions required by the other trade exchange. We reserve the right to suspend or end trading on any other exchange at any time and for any reason, or no reason, without liability.
4.3. TRADEONBARTER Bill Extensions of Credit. You understand and acknowledge that all aspects of TRADEONBARTER bill extensions of credit ("Credit Line") are within the sole discretion of TRADEONBARTER. Members wishing to apply for a Credit Line may be required to (i) submit a line of credit application and financial statements, (ii) sign credit agreements or promissory notes, (iii) provide a guarantee; (iv) provide collateral or (v) prepay USD Fees prior to approval. We may, in our sole discretion and without liability to Member or any Authorized User, at any time for any reason or no reason, without prior notice, change the amount of or revoke a Member's Credit Line.
Any Account owing past-due USD Fees on the date of the second Billing Cycle (typically fifty-six (56) days) after the date originally invoiced, may have any Credit Line immediately revoked by TRADEONBARTER, at that time or any time thereafter, unless or until all Fees are paid in full.
4.4. Allocation of Products and/or Services. Member acknowledges that allocation of products and services in short supply may be regulated and managed by TRADEONBARTER. As a result, we may in our sole discretion, or the request of Seller or your assigned Broker, determine that some Members be designated as "Broker Managed" Accounts and that all contact and transactions be handled through an assigned Broker. You acknowledge that certain Member Accounts may be primarily or solely for the use of TRADEONBARTER, its Brokers or employees. With respect to those Accounts, we, our Brokers, and their employees will be subject to these Rules in the same manner as Members.

Member and each of its Authorized Users shall adhere to all of TRADEONBARTER's Rules and policies, as amended from time to time, posted on the Website or otherwise provided to such Member, including the Privacy Policy, our Fee Policy (set forth as Section 3 - Continuing Service and Transaction Fees), and policies providing additional terms and conditions related to specific products or services offered in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB  (see Section 2.5 - Legal Right to Sell Listed Products and Services).

A "Direct Transaction" is a transaction whereby two Members directly exchange their products or services for the purpose of avoiding Fees due to TRADEONBARTER.

It is also deemed Check Passing and/or a Direct Transaction for one Member to make purchases for another or to allow another Member to make purchases utilizing its Account.

Prohibited or Restricted Products and Services Policy
Before listing your product or service for sale in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, make sure it is permitted and find out whether it is subject to certain restrictions. This helps avoid potential problems with your listing. Please review the information below. You also need to ensure that the sale of your item complies with the law and that you are appropriately licensed.
Violations of these policies may result in a range of actions, including:

  • Suspension or termination of our services to you or your account
  • Adjustment or reversal of disputed transactions
  • Removal of posted content or your Member information
  • Limits on your access to the Website or right to transact in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB
  • The assessment of increased Fees
  • Forfeiture of TRADEONBARTER BILLS

When we determine that a violation of the Rules has occurred, we will contact or email you to let you know that the listing was removed or other action was taken. Although we may act to enforce the Rules, TRADEONBARTER has no obligation to monitor or evaluate Members' actions or inactions, or the fairness or lawfulness of any transaction conducted through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB. As a third party administrator of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, TRADEONBARTER is not involved in any actual transaction between Buyers and Sellers. We do not endorse the accuracy, reliability, integrity, or legality of any information provided by Members, Brokers, and third parties available through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB.

General Requirements
Compliance with Law; Licensing. No Member shall offer for sale or purchase any product or service through the TRADEONBARTER CLUB in a manner that violates federal, state, provincial, and local law. No offer to sell or purchase any such prohibited product or service shall be deemed to be authorized by TRADEONBARTER. Only Members holding the appropriate license may sell products and services that are permitted to be sold only by licensed sellers under federal, state, provincial, and local law, including but not limited to travel services, alcohol, real estate, and professional services.
Specific Policies. The following policies provide additional terms and conditions related to specific products and services offered in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB:

Each of these policies may be changed from time to time. Changes take effect when we post them on the TRADEONBARTER website. All such policies or rules are hereby incorporated into these Rules.
Listings and Posted Information. It is also important to review the rules about website usage, intellectual property, member information and any specific information posted on our Website to check if your item or posted information is subject to additional restrictions that would affect your listing.
Prohibited and restricted items list:
Due BILLS. "Due BILLS" denote the right to receive, in the future, products from or services to be provided or performed by the selling Member or a third party (that may or may not have a TRADEONBARTER Account). Although not prohibited in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, TRADEONBARTER strongly discourages Members from buying Due BILLS and does not endorse the sale of Due BILLS in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, or guarantee or warrant Due BILLS in any manner.
Due BILLS are particularly risky because the product or service provider may not exist when the performance is demanded, despite the best of intentions. Buyers of Due BILLS should communicate directly with the Seller, authenticate Seller's identity, and perform all due diligence before entering into a transaction.
A Broker may not list a Due Bill for a third party Seller, who is not a TRADEONBARTER Member, unless Broker agrees to guarantee the performance of the transaction. If performance under the Due Bill does not occur, Broker is responsible to reimburse Buyer for all TRADEONBARTER BILLS and transaction Fees expended by Buyer on the transaction.
Real Estate Policy

Due to the wide variety of laws governing the sale of real estate, any advertisements of real property in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB do not involve legally binding offers to buy and sell. Instead, the TRADEONBARTER CLUB is a way for Sellers to advertise their real estate and meet potential Buyers.
Role of TRADEONBARTER. To accommodate Buyers and Sellers in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, we allow certain advertisements of real estate. All offers to sell real property are solicitations by the Seller and not by TRADEONBARTER. As a third party administrator of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, TRADEONBARTER is not involved in the actual transaction between Buyers and Sellers. We have no control over, and make no representations about, the quality, safety, or legality of the properties advertised, the Sellers of such properties, the truth or accuracy of the information posted by Sellers, the ability of Sellers to sell property, or the ability or financial capabilities of Buyers to buy the property. We cannot ensure that a Buyer or Seller will actually complete a transaction.
TRADEONBARTER is not responsible for, and does not engage in, brokering, selling, purchasing, exchanging, or leasing posted properties or providing a "multiple listing service" as that term is traditionally used. TRADEONBARTER does not provide legal advice to, or counsel, Buyers or Sellers, show properties, negotiate sales contracts, or hold a position of trust and confidence, whether or not in connection with the Website. Accordingly, no brokerage relationship or any agency or fiduciary relationship is intended to be or shall be deemed to have been created between TRADEONBARTER and any Seller or Buyer of real estate.
Real Estate Licensees. A Member or Broker may not list real estate for a third party or another Seller unless he or she is a licensed real estate professional in the jurisdiction in which such offered property is located. Real estate may be offered in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB by the legal owner of the property.
Sellers who are licensed as an agent, broker, or other licensed real estate professional must ensure that their item description conforms to all laws and regulations applicable to online advertising of properties by such licensees. These requirements may include, among other things, disclosure of the licensee's name, any firm with which the licensee is affiliated, office location, and the jurisdiction(s) where the licensee is licensed.
Members may wish to visit the Web site of the Association of Real Estate License Law Officials, which offers a search tool providing access to a database of information about the current license or registration status of real estate licensees.
Professional Assistance. Members are strongly advised to seek the help of a licensed real estate professional or real estate attorney to help you in the negotiation, purchase, or sale of any real estate. The purchase and sale of real estate is a complicated matter that is governed by laws, practices, and customs that vary significantly from locality to locality. Sellers are advised that many jurisdictions require that you provide a disclosure statement to all prospective buyers regarding the condition of your property. In addition, under U.S. federal law, sellers have an obligation to disclose information on lead-based paint hazards.
Real Estate Transactions. Any Member that conducts or participates in a transaction involving the sale or lease of real estate agrees to the following:

  • Any real estate transaction conducted in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB shall not be deemed a legally binding contract until all requisite documents have been executed by Buyer and Seller and the transaction has been completed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which such property is located.
  • Seller is the legal owner of that property; or the property is listed by a Member or Broker who is a licensed real estate professional in the jurisdiction in which such offered property is located.
  • Buyer is responsible to conduct its own due diligence related to property inspection, title review, building code compliance, termite inspection, flood plain, hazardous materials, and other local issues transparent only to an expert.
  • Buyer may be required by TRADEONBARTER to complete a Release of Liability and Assumption of Risk Agreement releasing TRADEONBARTER from claims related to the transaction prior to completing a real estate transaction.
  • Customary TRADEONBARTER CLUB transaction Fees assessed on the TRADEONBARTER BILLS utilized in real estate transactions shall not be deemed to be real estate commissions.
  • Selling an undivided interest in a land real estate property is not permitted. An undivided interest is defined as a partial interest by two or more people in the same property.
  • All real estate advertising in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB  is subject to the Federal Fair Housing Act, which makes it illegal to advertise "any preference, limitation, or discrimination because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin," as well as state and local requirements.

Travel Service Policy

Due to many state laws governing the sale of travel and travel-related items (including vacation packages, air or sea travel, hotel and resort stays, gift certificates, and travel coupons), Members and Brokers who want to list travel-related items agree to the following:
Role of TRADEONBARTER. To accommodate Buyers and Sellers in the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, we allow certain advertisements of travel-related items. All offers to sell travel services or travel-related items are solicitations by the Seller and not by TRADEONBARTER. As a third party administrator of the TRADEONBARTER CLUB, TRADEONBARTER is not involved in the actual transaction between Buyers and Sellers. We have no control over, and make no representations about, the quality, safety, or legality of the travel services or travel-related items advertised, the Sellers of such services or items, the truth or accuracy of the information posted by Sellers, the ability of Sellers to sell travel services or travel-related items, or the ability or financial capabilities of Buyers to buy the travel services or travel-related items. We cannot ensure that a Buyer or Seller will actually complete a transaction.
TRADEONBARTER is not responsible for, and does not engage in, brokering, selling, purchasing, or exchanging any posted travel services or travel-related items nor is it licensed or registered as a "seller of travel" in any jurisdiction. TRADEONBARTER does not provide legal or other advice, or counsel, to Buyers or Sellers, negotiate contracts for travel services or travel-related items, or hold a position of trust and confidence, whether or not in connection with the Website. Accordingly, no agency or fiduciary relationship is intended to be or shall be deemed to have been created between TRADEONBARTER and any Seller or Buyer of travel services or travel-related items.
Due BILLS. Certificates or vouchers representing the right to receive travel-related items or services in the future are subject to our Rule limitations on Due BILLS. See "Prohibited or Restricted Products and Services Policy - Due BILLS."
Providers of Travel Services. Businesses that actually provide travel services, such as airlines, trains, hotels, resorts, and cruise ships, may list and offer items such as their own gift certificates, airline tickets, lodging, cruises, or vacation packages (including timeshares for rent listed by a timeshare owner). As providers of the actual travel service, they are typically exempted from seller-of-travel laws and may not need to provide travel registration or licensing information. However, they must clearly identify themselves in the listing as the actual provider of the travel services offered.
Individuals. Individual travelers who are not in the business of selling travel services, but simply wish to sell an unused air or sea related travel voucher, coupon, travel miles, upgrades or gift or other certificate, or list their own timeshare weeks for rent, may offer no more than one travel-related item per Cycle provided that the item is not a "Travel Club Membership" or a "Vacation Certificate" (defined below). Such individual Sellers may play no role in arranging any travel other than delivering the item. Since many airline tickets, vouchers, and frequent flier miles are not transferable, Seller is responsible to review any travel-related item before listing to make sure that it can be transferred legally to a Buyer and will be accepted by the issuing provider of travel services.
Businesses Selling Third-Party Travel Services and Travel Agents. Businesses, Members, and Brokers who sell or arrange wholesale or retail air, sea, land or water vessel transportation, either separately or together with other travel services or accommodations (but do not directly provide the travel service themselves) may sell the travel items or services (including airplane tickets, cruise trips, vacation packages, hotel and resort stays, timeshares, gift certificates, and travel coupons) on the TRADEONBARTER CLUB  only if they are registered or licensed as Sellers of Travel in all applicable states. Your listing must clearly set out your Seller of Travel registration number, the disclosures required by state law, as well as any other license or registration information required in other states.
Businesses, Members, and Brokers may not offer a "Travel Club Membership" or a "Vacation Certificate" (defined below). Travel clearinghouse affiliates, that are not actual agents booking the travel themselves, may not list travel services on the TRADEONBARTER CLUB.
Travel Club Memberships and "Vacation Certificates." Listings of "Travel Club Memberships" or "Vacation Certificates" or similar items by any Member or Broker are not permitted.
"Travel Club Memberships" include any service, card, or identification number that offers to give the holder the right to free or discounted travel, for example, certificates that entitle the holder to some travel-related benefit (such as free or low-cost hotel stays) with a variety of travel providers.
"Vacation certificates" are documents that are not issued directly by a single provider of travel, but by travel wholesalers, consolidators, or other middleman. These certificates generally offer the holder free or low-cost travel services with a choice of multiple hotel chains, resorts, or airlines, the exact location often being at the choice of the buyer or seller. These certificates are regulated in many states and in many cases require additional purchases.
All Listings of Travel and Travel-Related Items

  • Fees and Taxes. You must disclose the kind and amount of any special fees associated with your travel listing in the item's description (including processing, registration, cleaning, and deposits), and must included them in the listing price. Taxes paid to government agencies do not have to be included in your item price, but the amounts need to be clearly stated in the item's description.
  • Listing Restrictions. All Sellers of travel and travel-related items (other than the excluded individuals described above) may be subject to verification of their seller-or-travel registration status and must make such representations and warranties and disclaimers in their listings as may be required by TRADEONBARTER from time to time, in a text size and color that can easily be seen and read by all potential Buyers.
