How does Bartercard work for recreational outfits and sporting organisations?

Bartercard can help fill downtime and spare capacity, and help boost revenue during quieter and off-peak times. It's also a great way for sporting organisations to convert trade dollars into cash for additional income.

I knew a restaurant come bar owner who was doing things a bit tough. He knew I was in Bartercard so I entered his details online and my Trade Broker went and saw him. He joined that day and called me to thank me for introducing him. I am sure you can guess where I booked my next family dinner out! The bRewards points are a bonus and running a go-kart centre petrol is a premium. I can’t buy it on Bartercard but I can buy petrol with bReward Points. The more businesses we get involved the better it is for all of us I say so make sure you introduce a few mates. If we all do that spending Bartercard just gets easier. I’m really happy to be involved because it’s like a club for business owners.

Bartercard has a long-standing relationship with the Waikato Chiefs through our Sponsorship scheme, which is continuing into the 2018 season. Bartercard has allowed our organisation to approve capital expenditure projects based on a portion of that expense being purchased on trade. We primarily use our Trade Dollars for accommodation when the team is touring, team manager expenses, functions and events, sponsorship events, operating expenses and some capital expenditure. Bartercard has really helped us to preserve cash where we've needed to, and it's a great support network for other charities and organisations looking for sponsorship.
