  • BarterAds Pty Ltd — BarterAds is a programmatic advertising exchange that enables businesses to acquire customers without cash spend by converting unused ad inventory into a tradable asset. Instead of paying in fiat, companies earn and spend a proprietary internal currency called Barter Dollars, which are issued when they display ads on their owned media propertiessuch as websites, apps, or platforms.The platform operates as an auction-based exchange, similar to traditional ad networks, where advertisers bid for impressions using Barter Dollars. Inventory is matched contextually and priced dynamically through real-time bidding, ensuring efficient allocation of supply and demand across the network. This allows both advertisers and publishers to maximize the value of otherwise underutilized inventory.BarterAds primarily targets startups, SaaS platforms, marketplaces, gaming companies, and content publishers that have traffic but are constrained by rising customer acquisition costs. By removing the need for upfront cash spend, the platform provides a capital-efficient growth channel, particularly for small and mid-sized businesses.The system includes controls for brand safety, fraud prevention, and inventory quality through business verification, campaign approvals, and continuous monitoring. Barter Dollars are non-transferable and expire periodically, preventing hoarding and ensuring continuous circulation within the ecosystem.BarterAds is designed as a hybrid between barter networks and modern ad exchanges, combining the scalability and automation of programmatic advertising with a closed-loop, cashless economy. The company is headquartered in Australia and is focused on building a global network of advertisers and publishers who both contribute inventory and run campaigns within the platform.

Trevor Folsom
Angel · Sydney, New South Wales, Australia · 2 investments in Australia Sports startups

Elevation Capital was formed by a group of successful entrepreneurs who have co-invested in order to pool together their capital and experience. We consider ourselves to be “venture accelerators” rather than venture capitalists. After starting my first fledgling business at the age of 17, I truly understand the unique challenges faced byentrepreneurs and I am aware that it takes more than just capital for a company to succeed.Recently, Blueprint Management and the various business's we developed (up to 10 companies over 13 years) has given me exposure to the difficult challenges that every entrepreneur will face. My experience has involved the creation of a company with only $10K start-up capital, which grew to over 950 staff. This business was then sold to a private equity group. The success of this venture has given me invaluable knowledge that I can now share with others to guide them in the future.Specialties:If there is one simple thing I have learnt in recent times about investing into growth companies, it is: "to not waste anyones time".Elevation Capital is a professional and committed organisation and is able to invest quickly when a good business opportunity presents itself. We appreciate the challenge that entrepreneurs face when trying to raise capital while also dealing with the daily time constraints of running their businesses.

Our algorithm continues to adapt as the market changes.In 2016, ANZ acquired REALas so we can continue in our pursuit to provide the most accurate predictions in the Australian property market, and supports us in the work we do from afar.REALas will continue to keep it real for property buyers so they don’t waste their time out there.
