How the BCEDA Insider App Works

Create an Account
With a BCEDA Insider account, you can collect points, and redeem them for rewards at Rewards locations around British Columbia.

Explore
The Explore button takes you to the map of British Columbia, which has pins indicating member Economic Development offices, Community Futures and Chamber of Commerce offices where you can collect points by just visiting. Clicking on each pin on the map gives you more information about that location.

Collect Points
Many locations are assigned a point value, which can be collected when you are within GPS range of a location and have a connection to the internet. Pushing the “Collect Points” button while physically visiting a location will add the location’s points to your point total. To keep earning points, explore more locations. You can track your point total on your Account page.

Redeem Rewards
Once you collect enough points, those points can be redeemed at Rewards locations around British Columbia. Select the place where you would like to redeem your reward. Hitting the “Redeem Rewards” button while physically at a Rewards location will bring up a key pad for the place owner to enter a code to deduct points from your point total in exchange for your reward. You must have an internet connection to redeem points. BCEDA is working to determine the types of rewards that will be offered.

Share with Friends
Find a place you want to let others know about? The Share button on each location’s page allows you to share information about that place via your social media channels.
