What is the Chamber Bucks program?

Shopping local helps multiple businesses in our community to grow. Locally spent money stays in our community through supporting employment, local business to business transactions and through charitable giving. The Chamber Bucks program is designed to help keep shopping dollars in Saugeen Shores through gift certificates that can be used at numerous participating local businesses. 

Chamber Bucks are perfect for that hard to buy for person, prize for a draw, or employee bonus! 

How does it work?

Chamber Bucks gift certificates can be purchased at the Saugeen Shores Chamber of Commerce. Denominations of $25, $50, $100 are currently available.

The gift certificate can then be redeemed ONLY at any participating SAUGEEN SHORES CHAMBER MEMBER BUSINESSES in good standing. 

Please note that certain items, like alcohol,  may not be purchased using the Chamber Bucks gift certificate. Ask the participating business if any restrictions apply to using Chamber Bucks at their location. Although Chamber Bucks do not expire, recipients of the Chamber Bucks gift certificate are encouraged to use it within one calendar year of its issue date. 

When a business receives a Chamber Bucks gift certificate, they treat it like cash and provide their customer with change from their purchase if needed. The business then returns the Chamber Bucks gift certificate to the Saugeen Shores Chamber of Commerce. The SSCC will immediately reimburse the participating business with an E-transfer in full.
Participating business owners are encouraged to train their staff about the Chamber Bucks program to ensure a seamless experience for their customers.
