Barter in the News-The Impact of Debuting NextGen Barter Software

In November of 2023, Trade Network proudly became the first trade exchange to introduce Nextrade360 from Red Leaf Software's new release, "Neo." As a long-time customer of Nextrade360 since 2013, we were thrilled to be the first to test their latest model.



We have been major supporters of Nextrade360 due to their technical expertise and deep understanding of the barter system. Over the past 10 years, we have never experienced outages or major glitches, and their team has always been responsive to fixing issues and improving the software. The shared vision between Trade Network and Nextrade360 was to enhance our members' trade experience by modernizing features, simplifying navigation, and making it easier to connect with other members and make purchases.


Since the launch, we’ve seen a remarkable increase in user engagement, with a 56% rise in member logins and a 132% surge in user activity year-over-year. The team at Red Leaf Software and Nextrade360 continues to work on further improvements, and we are excited to see what the future holds for barter!




If you manage another trade exchange and would like to discuss our experience with using Nextrade360 as our barter software provider, or if you are a Michigan-based business interested in learning more about our network, feel free to call us anytime at (517) 886-8900.
