Barter members are simply agreeing to accept an additional form of currency for payment. Members are free to purchase any product or service within the network-they do not have to accept each other's merchandise directly. BizXchange or simply BizX is one such barter network.

Making a purchase through BizX is easy, BizX members are given cards similar to credit cards. You can keep track of all of your sales and purchases using BizX's online member portal.
It is estimated that more than 450,000 businesses in the U.S. actively use organized barter to supplement their cash transactions. More than two-thirds of Fortune 500 companies participate in barter relationships. That's because barter is a smart business tool.
BizXchange members finance purchases of things they need out of additional sales of their own product or service. By using BizX, each purchase is offset by extra sales, excess inventory, or spare capacity.
