The official app of the Be Local network in Calgary. Get local and make money when you download the Be Local app. Exchange goods and services with other Calgarians -as a citizen or as a business - and get rewarded for your commitment to being local. Spend your Calgary Dollars at other local businesses or donate them to community projects through Take Action Grants. You need only accept 10% in Calgary Dollars of the purchase price for products or services listed on the Be Local Marketplace to get started - the other 90% can be paid in federal currency. Its never been easier to help the economy, the environment and the community.

We want you to "Be Local" because your money does more good when its spent at Locally owned businesses spend, on average, 25% more of their revenue locally. This means your money recirculates in Calgary 2-4x and creates more good each time it changes hands. This multiplier effect means you arent just supporting one business green efforts, you are supporting many.

Be Local businesses are at the forefront of the new economy, demonstrating that business can make a fair profit while contributing to healthy and prosperous communities. We invite you to explore our Be Local businesses who are contributing to a more vibrant Calgary by checking out our Marketplace. https://listings.calgarydollars.ca/belocal#marketplace.advertisements.search:list-ads
