Alchemy description: You haggle for <mag>% better prices for <dur> seconds.
Enchanting description: Prices are <mag>% better.
Fortify Barter increases your barter ability, effectively increasing the amount of money you receive when selling items and decreasing the amount you have to pay to buy items. Fortify Barter does not have any effect on other Speech activities (e.g., persuasion and intimidation checks). The Haggling perk in the Speech skill tree provides a Fortify Barter effect, and the Allure perk provides a Fortify Barter effect with merchants of the opposite sex.

A separate effect, Fortify Persuasion, increases your overall Speech skill, which means it also improves your barter ability. Strictly in terms of barter ability, Fortify Persuasion is less effective than a Fortify Barter effect with the same magnitude. However, to maximize your barter ability you will want to include any Fortify Persuasion effects that add to your active effects without replacing a Fortify Barter effect, most notably The Gift of Charity blessing.
