From BCLSoft, February 16, 2010

By being a member of IRTA we are able to use the expertise of Ron Whitney and the resources of IRTA.
 
Although we had operated our own barter exchange for a number of years, we worked with Ron to better understand the IRS requirements for barter exchanges reporting 1099B forms. Through IRTA we learned the distinct differences between a 1099 and a 1099B, the reporting requirements and just an overall understanding of how we could help the exchanges using our software better comply with the IRS.
 
Just this information, more than pays for our IRTA membership. If you own a barter exchange or provide any services or products to the barter and trade industry, I strongly recommend you join with IRTA.

International Monetary Systems-IMS has only had a membership with IRTA a few years, but the return on the investment of time and money spent has been 10 fold. We are seasoned veterans of the barter industry, but our staff that interacts within the IRTA network has acquired more knowledge about the industry since joining than they did in the prior 5 years.


Because of IRTA we have made tremendous new contacts in the industry with international exchanges, corporate trade associations, legal counsel, and business management. And IRTA is more than an association for trading partners, it is a fellowship of professional business owners coming together to share ideas.


We need education, we must build and nurture relationships, we need to reach beyond our own inner-circle of clients, we need a national Universal Currency-UC and therefore IMS needs IRTA in order to further advance our goals.

Joining IRTA has been a pleasant and prosperous experience for everyone at the Barter Business Exchange.  The UC Barter Broker, Casey, is the best!  She goes the extra mile to help us find everything that we need but do not have in our bartering network.  Ron Whitney always goes the extra mile to help me whenever I have a question. If you own a barter exchange, you should consider joining IRTA -- you won't be disappointed!

From Thomas H. Greco, Jr., Worldwide leading authority on free-market approaches to monetary innovation and cashless trading systems. Author of numerous books on alternative currencies, including the most recent, "The End of Money and the Future of Civilization."

"IRTA is the premier members' association for both the commercial barter industry and the emergent alternative exchange movement. IRTA has led the way in providing support to the industry and in establishing high standards of practice.  I am confident that the association will continue to build upon its past achievements by providing the leadership needed to move cashless trading to a new level of both volume and effectiveness."
