If you have put a barter offer online, you will receive offers from other users, or you make a barter request yourself. As soon as you and the other provider have agreed, nothing stands between you and the barter.

Can barter transactions be stopped or cancelled?
As long as barter has not been completed, it can be stopped under mutual agreement. As soon as one party has completed his side of the barter, a cancellation is not possible any more.

What can I do if I have fulfilled my side of the barter offer, but my barter partner has not?
In this case we propose as part of our client service a one-off demand for the outstanding barter offer under threat of legal action from a lawyer. If the implementation is not possible for the barter partner for whatever reason, he can make an alternative offer or propose compensation.

Can I transfer a hunt?
This has to be clarified with the barter partner. Of course you are able to agree individually on the details of your hunt with you barter partner.

I have offered and exchanged something that I have not got any more (loss of hunting grounds, shooting plan has been exceeded). What can I do?
We recommend you clarify with your barter partner in advance how to proceed when the barter has been completed on one side only. A possibility could be an alternative offer or compensation.

I cannot keep a hunting appointment at short notice. My barter partner has already booked his trip to me. What should I do?
We recommend you inform yourself about eventual options of cancellation or withdrawal in the case of both sale and barter hunts.

Are there any hidden costs?
