No — there is no cost to participate in the Community Marketplace during this pilot.
This program is entirely free for small businesses. The goal is to spotlight and support local businesses by connecting them with members who want to shop locally and intentionally.
What’s Included (At No Cost)
By joining the pilot, your business gets:
- A featured listing in the Community Marketplace
- Promotion to credit union’s member base through email and online banking
- Access to support from the Goodbuy team
- Inclusion in community engagement efforts
- A direct channel to a loyal, values-aligned audience
You’re simply asked to:
- Provide a member discount or perk
- Train your staff to honor the Community Access Pass
- Track redemptions and share light feedback at the end of the pilot
Will There Be a Cost After the Pilot?
The long-term model is still being shaped based on your feedback and outcomes from this test. If future versions include paid tiers or optional tools, they’ll be clearly communicated — but your participation in this pilot will remain free.
