…who has suffered due to Covid-19

Bartercard International, the world’s largest Barter Trade Exchange, established in Australia almost 30 years ago, has pledged support to every Australian business owner or individual that has suffered a business closure or job loss due to Coronavirus.

The company said it has created its own mini-stimulus package that will see every Australian that has lost their job or suffered a business closure, due to the ravages of Coronavirus, paid $1,000 in Bartercard “trade dollars” that can be spent with approximately 10,000 Bartercard small business merchants in every state and territory across Australia.

Bartercard has thousands of small business merchants in almost every industry category ranging from cafes, hairdressers, plumbers, bicycle shops, accountants and mechanics to giftware, sporting goods, tradies, lawyers and home maintenance to name just a few.

The individuals and SME recipients will also be given the opportunity to generate much needed income by listing their unwanted home goods, cars, bikes, caravans as well as business inventories, goods, vouchers and assets on the Bartercard trading platforms

The stimulus package, to be known as “Barter-Assist”, will not attract fees and will apply to all Australian residents that lost their jobs and have a certificate of separation or termination letter from their former employer.

Bartercard is a membership based organisation operating for more than 29 years that is normally open only to business owners. Bartercard operates in six countries around the world and has over 20,000 cardholders in Australia and New Zealand combined.

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling. However, the past few years, like many media organisations around the world, it has not been an easy path. We have a greater challenge. We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution. Do make a DONATION NOW so we can continue with the volume and quality journalism that we are able to practice.

Thank you for your support.

Best wishes,
Team The Indian Sun
