New App from NCBA helps Consumers "Live Cooperatively"

Earlier this week, the National Cooperative Business Association, in partnership with Co-operatives UK and National Cooperative Bank, announced the release of a new mobile App to help consumers identify local cooperatives. 

The App is a free resource, compatible with Apple and Android smartphones and tablets, which provides access to around 29,000 US cooperatives from credit unions to healthcare and transportation. In addition, users can accumulate points redeemable for prizes and discounts, and stay up to date on cooperative news. 

The news article quotes Liz Bailey saying, “Cooperatives continue to outperform for-profit businesses when it comes to consumer satisfaction and now consumers have a free resource at their fingertips that will enable them to experience the co-op difference firsthand,”
