Just two weeks after launch, the Chamber Perks app is already making waves across Huron County. Dozens of local businesses have added perks, hundreds of shoppers have downloaded the app, and new deals are being added daily — all helping to keep local spending local.

If you haven’t downloaded the app yet, now’s the time. Chamber Perks is completely free and available to anyone. It’s a one-stop shop for discovering discounts, bonuses, and special offers from trusted businesses throughout the county — from retailers and restaurants to service providers and professionals.

The response from participating businesses has been overwhelmingly positive.

In Clinton, Hayley Bettles of Small Town Paralegal saw the app as a way to reach more people with a service many don’t even realize is available locally.

“This is a great opportunity to raise awareness,” says Bettles. “A lot of people don’t realize they can access licensed paralegal services right here in Clinton, and Chamber Perks helps me reach my neighbours directly.”

In Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh, the team at the Goderich Sunset Golf Club used the app to highlight an offer from their restaurant — 20% off any menu item for Chamber members.

“The golf scene in Huron County is competitive,” says General Manager Jim Kardash. “This is a simple way to offer a little extra value and give members another reason to stick around after a round or stop in just for a great meal.”

Not every perk has to be new — some businesses are using the app to shine a light on existing specials. JD Lyons, owner of The Park Theatre in Goderich, added their longstanding Tuesday night discount to the app to increase visibility and foot traffic.

“It’s something we already offer,” says Lyons, “but Chamber Perks helps more people discover it. If someone’s on the fence about going to the movies this week, seeing that deal in the app might be the nudge they need.”

The app was launched deliberately to coincide with Amazon’s Prime Days, offering a local-first alternative to online mega-retailers. Instead of sending more money to American billionaires, Chamber Perks keeps dollars circulating in our communities and creates real value for local businesses.

Perks come in three forms:

  • Public Perks – open to anyone with the app
  • Local Chamber Perks – exclusive to Huron Chamber members and their employees
  • Chamber Member Perks – available to members of any Chamber of Commerce

That means whether you’re a resident, a visitor, or an employee of a local business, there’s something in the app for you. And yes — employees of Chamber members can redeem member-exclusive perks, not just the business owners.
