Voluntary patronage

Support Barter

Barter is funded by voluntary donations. They support the platform, photo assistance, and hosting. Donations are always optional—no trading privileges or voting advantage—and separate from money-free trades.

Principle 01

Always optional

Contributing is voluntary. You can host a Trading Post, trade, and enjoy Barter without ever donating.

Principle 02

No trading advantage

Donations never confer trade priority, extra points, or voting advantage in any group.

Principle 03

Separate from trades

Support funds platform hosting only. Trades between members stay goods, skills, and neighborly help.
