Yes, we can do quarter hours or any other unit you want. Just let us know. We've just set up a timebank in Dublin, Ireland, with a promise of many more to come in that country.

Will be in touch soon. Hope all is well with you,

- Hi Deirdre
You can now view which exchanges are time based. Log into your CES account and click on the [Stats] button at the top. At the bottom left of the 'Statistics & Reports' page click on the '[View] Exchanges' button. This lists all the visible CES exchanges. There is a column called 'Curr Type' which shows the type used by the exchange (Nat = based on national currency; Time = time based). If you click on the column heading it will sort by type. If you want to see if the unit of account is minutes or hours, hover your mouse over the word 'Time' of the time-based exchanges.
Sydney LETS (SYCE) is not overall time-based, but all services need to be quoted as 20 Operas per hour.
Hope that's ok.
Tim

Credit and Debit Limits
What are credit and debit limits and why do we need them in a community of givers and receivers promoting the notion of abundance? Surely limits create a shortage of the currency, taking us back to debt-based conventional money where those of us who are short of the stuff have to borrow it from those who have a surplus?
Credit and debit limits are absolutely essential for the health of an exchange. In the CES we do not impose 'hard' limits where the system stops… Continue
