What do I get if I sign up to join BT Tradespace?

If you want to review or rate a product and/or business, or comment on one of our blogs, you don't need a Tradespace, all you need to do is sign up and set up your community profile.

For businesses
Joining BT Tradespace is free for all. As a business, when you sign up you automatically get a free Tradespace as part of our Basic package through which you can:

• Advertise and promote your business by automatically becoming part of the listing on the BT Tradespace website once you've set up and activated your Tradespace.


• Feature up to 50 products and services to your Tradespace.


• Use text to promote your business and feature 10 audio and 10 video files and use 50 photos to showcase your products and/or services.


• Sell stuff online via your Tradespace using PayPal with a 5% BT transaction fee and a PayPal fee**.


• Join or create your own community and use your own blogs to engage conversation on your Tradespace.

Once you've had a taste of BT Tradespace and want more, you can also upgrade your account to BT Tradespace Contact.

BT Tradespace Contact is our premium, chargeable package which gives you an enhanced Tradespace. The good stuff about our Contact package is that you not only enjoy all the above benefits, but you also get great tools to build on your customer service.

Improve your customer contact
To keep up with those all important business opportunities, you can get free incoming calls through the 'click to call' functionality that you can add to your Tradespace. Potential customers visiting your Tradespace can request to get your business cards by SMS direct from your site and if you want to sell directly from your site, guess what - all you have to do is add a 'Buy from my site' button!

You have an unlimited content capacity
Put simply - as a Contact customer you can list as many products as you want - plus you can add a zillion photos, videos, podcasts to make your Tradespace the best thing since sliced bread!

Increased visibility
We all want to get noticed right? So if you want to be more visible, our Contact package is your thing. Contact customers get priority positioning on our website with a bold listing in search results. They also get featured on dedicated areas of the website and they can have their business listing in more than one business category.

Exclusive offers/discounts
We like to treat our customers well. As a Contact customer, you'll get the red carpet treatment with exclusive offers on BT and partner products - and if you choose to sell online, you can enjoy a 0% BT transaction fee till 31st March 2009*. After this, your fee is still only 3%.
