About Barter
Peer-to-peer clearing on Base — who we are, how it works, and how to reach us.
Barter is a peer-to-peer token clearing desk on Base. Two wallets agree on a fixed rate, deposit into verified escrow contracts, and settle atomically — no AMM curve and no quote that moves at submit.
Barter never holds your wallet keys. You connect your own wallet, approve only the amounts you choose, and interact directly with verified contracts on Base. The app is a front end; settlement happens on-chain.
How a swap works
- Post — name the exact tokens and amounts you offer and want.
- Match — another wallet accepts your open offer, or you accept theirs.
- Settle — both sides deposit into escrow; the contract releases funds atomically when complete.
Protocol fees
Open access is 0.20% per side on what each party receives. Stake $BARTER on Base for 0.12% or 0% per side. Access is never gated — staking only lowers your fee.
Verified contracts
Escrow and marketplace source is verified on Basescan. See our Security page for official contract addresses before approving any transaction.
Why Barter
No hidden cost
The price you post is the price you get. No AMM curve, no surprise fill, just the protocol fee.
Fixed rate
Name your ratio and stick to it. Makes sense when a DEX's full cost (fee plus impact) beats a straight peer trade.
Open access first
Everyone trades at 0.20% per side today, no token required. Future token utility stays separate from the live clearing experience.
On-chain escrow
Both sides deposit. Atomic release when the deal is done. 7-day timeout if someone ghosts.
