Velocity Trade Exchange Membership 2008 Pricing*

New Members have two primary pricing decisions to make:

1. Do you want the ability to buy and sell with national "reciprocal" trade exchanges?
Through NATE (National Association of Trade Exchanges), VTE has access to over 50,000 businesses throughout the US and Canada via other trade exchanges. This access significantly increases our chances of finding what members need at a great price. In addition, for members who offer products or services they'd like to be able to sell outside of the local territory, a "National Membership" expands their sales audience. On the other hand, some business owners will be able to sufficiently meet their needs through local offerings and sales opportunities that VTE can provide directly. If a business does not need the nationwide options and exposure, VTE provides the lower-priced option of the "Local Only Membership."

2. Are you willing to guarantee their cash fees with a credit card?
The "Easy Pay" option provides members with a strong discount for guaranteeing payment with a credit card. The time we save by reducing the number of payment reminder calls each month allows us to spend more time finding new members who meet your individual needs.
