If a member continues to sell products or services substantially above retail or continues to charge a premium for barter transactions, that member will be expelled from the Exchange and forfeit all funds in their account.
Barter dollars shall not be considered as legal tender, securities or commodities, by either Exchange or its clients, and may not be redeemed for cash.
Gratuities and taxes, which are standard to the client, shall be collected by the client and shall be paid in cash or other acceptable means at the time of the transaction. Exchange shall not be responsible for the failure to collect tax or gratuities.
Buyers must identify themselves to the seller as an Exchange member PRIOR to making purchase arrangements. Trade between clients without the knowledge or approval of Exchange is prohibited, and if consummated, is subject to a cash transaction fee from both the buyer and the seller at the current Exchange rates. Continued violation of this policy will result in expulsion from the Exchange.

Client grants to Exchange the right and power to make barter dollar loans to any client on terms and conditions consistent with the Client's credit status and the ability to repay the loan. The exercise of this power shall be at the sole discretion of Exchange with regard to principal, interest, collateral terms, and other particulars. Interest will be charged monthly to all clients whose accounts are in a deficit position as this is considered a loan. The interest charge will be based upon the deficit balance as of the end of each month.

Exchange reserves the right to charge any fees due against credit cards or EFT authorizations on file.
