This company was great initially. However the follow up phone calls stopped and they want busy business owners to track the social media page(s). Now I parted ways with itrade and upon my exit I had hundreds of dollars in trade credit. I asked that they give me comedy club gift cards. Speaking to the rep he said he would priority mail them to me. Well upon receiving the "mail" the itrade "priority mail" was wrapped in a US post envelop (picture is in review). The mail WAS NOT sent priority and someone had clearly ripped it open and gotten my gift certificates. When I called itrade (as this was their fault as it was not delivered and not priority mail as promised) they said I would have to take it up with the post office. This company doesn't give a f--k that they just handed over hundreds of dollars of my hard earned money and it was their fault. Had it been sent as priority it would have been in a larger envelope and the gift certificates would not have been stolen as they would have been seen so easily. DO NOT WORK WITH THIS COMPANY. THEY ONLY CARE ABOUT YOUR MONEY WHEN THEY ARE MAKING MONEY OFF YOUR MONEY. MY TREATMENT BY ITRADE IS ATROCIOUS. YYOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. read more

iTrade Pay - How my "Priority mail" with stolen gift certificates arrived from itrade... - Marketing Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I've been an iTrade member for a year now and had a bad experience using another local trade company in the past. I REALLY love this trade organization and Gina always takes great care of me. She makes sure I'm aware of new trade opportunities and there are just so many companies in iTrade it makes it very useful. So far I traded for; Dental work Musical lessons Cabin up north Christmas gifts Tons of restaurants Water treatment system Locksmith work Arabian horse show tickets Comedy club tickets King size bed Furniture reupholstered CBD products Valentines gift basket I am sure I'm missing stuff but this is the first few things that come to mind. Their office is FULL of great stuff. I plan on doing lots of travel and marketing for my business in the future. I love that they have a large staff always trying to get more members and keep trade on top of mind with at least 2-3 emails a week with special offers. Please mention me if this review convinced you to join so I get extra trade for the referral :) read more

This company has come a long way in the past few years. They have an ongoing job of weeding out businesses that try to inflate barter prices over what they would charge cash buyers. They keep track of the businesses that give poor service and won't refer people to them. Just like any other business. They have expanded the number of member businesses that meet many of my needs. From eyeglasses to tires, concerts to tacos, travel to home cleaning. iTrade Pay is not perfect and doesn't have everything I want. But I don't expect (I do want!) Costco and Safeway to be members. I am very comfortable with my broker Kayla Frederick. She does her job, telling me about services and special offers but also understanding that no means no. Taking the time to understand the fees and tax ramifications is an important part of the puzzle. Being brave enough to say no - to decline or postpone accepting new business is part of the deal. Barter is not meant to replace cash but it can be a valuable business tool when used appropriately. I find a close kinship with fellow business owners who use iTradePay. When I provide a good service, they leave me positive reviews and refer cash business to me. read more

I would like to give a shout out to all of the staff at I trade pay. I have been a member for 25 years and I've always found them to be very helpful in whatever I seem to be looking for. I know that they will always get back to me and do what is best for me as a member I can't say enough about all of them I would highly recommend them read more

I've been with iTradePay (formerly VCA) for 4 years and I have taken the time to learn how to barter effectively and make the conversion to cash work for me. I can't stress enough how powerful trade is, but you have to know your numbers...a basic tenet of good business. It surprises me just how many opportunities there are to really excel with iTradePay. I love barter and I will never stop trading with and through this group! read more

Best customer service ever! These guys are so friendly. So inviting. And always give me more help than I anticipate. They always have what I'm looking for. They all know my name and greet me like I'm part of the family ! Thank you iTrade! read more

One of the best companies to do business with. All the associates are hardworking, kind and ready to get you the help you need in no time. I'd pick them every time! read more

Can I give less than 1 star? Don't get involved with these people. Closer to a scam than a legitimate company. There's the barter, then the fees, plus the cash you pay to them, only to be followed up at the end of the year with a1099 for you to pay taxes on the whole thing (which conveniently no one mentions). They have changed their name again apparently and are sending out bills to customers from the old company for fees from years ago with overnight threats to collections. I could go on just, RUN don't walk. read more

We have been using I- Trade for years and absolutely don't know how we ever got along without it! All the people in the office are always there and eager to do whatever it takes to assist in your search for services and goods. We have used them for auto care, a self pampering experience,even for date nights and when it's time for the Holiday Trade Show, you better believe we are there with our Pool Cues on display and shopping at all the other vendors for good deals and making some friends along the way.If you're already a member you know what I'm talking about and if you're not a member I suggest you check it out! And a big shoutout to our tenure Jimmy and Christie read more

I love iTrade Pay. We are a very active trader. The depth and breadth of their gift cards selections are very impressive.

HUGE SCAM DO NOT SIGN UP!!! All of your sales made through itrade are tracked and you get a 1099 at the end of the year. So not only are you paying significantly higher prices with all the other vendors but you pay an additional 10% commission fee to iTrade, plus $8/month whether you have a lot or 0 activity that month. It makes absolutely 0 financial sense to use this service. 0 benefit and all downside. Do not waste your time. I'm not just some ranting unhappy customer. I was a member for years! The vendor lost kept shrinking while I was there so when I did wanna use my trade money there wasn't anyone on there I'd wanna buy from and if I did I'd have to pay 30% higher prices plus an extra 10% trade fee. Long story short it's a joke please don't waste your time and money. Charge your customers a fair price and then you'll get charged a fair price searching and negotiating with cash prices. read more

Avoid this company like the PLAGUE they are a price gouging company with bs fees they tell the business to charge double or triple what the service or product is worth I have recorded conversations to prove it they also try to schedule for you without even notifying you, services you paid for sometimes never even happen and they don't want to refund you because the other company said they contacted you which is a lie. If I could give this company the most negative number review I would BELIEVE ME oh and your information isn't safe you get calls everyday from a competitor they have because itrade does not secure your information so be prepared for that aswell.!! read more

If we could give them a zero we would. High transaction fees and beware small company's they will promote you massively only to bankrupt you with the out of pocket expenses you have, then close your account if you can't pay, having you lose thousands of your barter money. We lost over 10k in cash with this company only to lose almost as much in barter money. They call you every other day to "sell" you something too. They even changed names to get away from their other bad reviews which we should have looked up prior to joining. We've talked to so many unhappy customers. Don't risk your business and cash flow on these people. read more

Our small business had been doing barter for the last 25 years. We love the ipay trade network ! We know cash is king but we think barter it better. I work with Tateyanna Wilinggam and she is a great broker and I'm sure all the other brokers there are great as well. They keep expanding and it's just going to be a huge opportunity for me to see my products and to purchase products and services through the network with discounts barter dollars read more

Kayla F. at iTrade is the BEST. We adore her here at Mike's Swat Team Pest & Termite Control!! She is always so attentive to our needs, questions, concerns and basically anything else under the sun. She is always quick to respond and is always looking to help us out. We are so thankful for her and all she does! read more

Complete scam, beware! Just google 'value card alliance' for some more real reviews. They changed their name to iTrade once they were too exposed. I'm not sure how they get away with what they do..as a small business, you earn trade 'dollars' from other small businesses in their circle, not actual cash (so you're already losing money when you have your expenses/overhead of employees, gas, tools, etc). Then we accumulated up to $20,000 in trade. We started having some issues with some customers on trade who were using our service and decided this would not be a feasible, sustainable option for our business (or any business for that matter). We cancelled the account and we were told we could keep that money to use with the businesses listed on there. Well an hour after that conversation I received a phone call stating we owe itrade $3,700 and our account is negative, gee is that a coincidence or what? Now they won't stop harassing us with phone calls. read more
