That’s right folks, we’ve only gone and done it.

Your wallet’s best friend, the Independent Birmingham Membership Card, is now available to download as an App!!!

You asked for it, and we answered. The IB App is available to download now on both Apple and Android devices and entitles you to up to 20% off (alongside exclusive 2-for-1 offers, freebies and more) at over 125 of Brum’s very best independent cafes, bars, restaurants, theatres, pubs, cinemas, hotels, shops and experiences – right at your fingertips.

With features that include:

  • A full list of all participating independents and their discounts/deals
  • The ability to navigate deals by what day you wish to use the App, by category, and by area
  • The ability to view all participating independents on a map of the city, with their precise locations
  • A Search Bar, so that you can find specific independents (and rediscover old favourites)
  • A ‘Near Me’ function, which when the IB App is opened will automatically show you your closest 10 independents on a map of the city (a feature that will hopefully enable and encourage you to discover new independents you may not have heard about or visited before)
  • A Wish List, that enables you to create your very own personalised ‘to visit’ list

The IB App is the perfect tool to help you to support local and rediscover your city, one hidden gem at a time.

Discounts include: Digbeth Dining Club, The Electric Cinema, Carters, Indian Brewery Snowhill, Birmingham Hippodrome, Adam’s, Zindiya, The Meat Shack, Baked In Brick, BoneHead, Purnell’s Restaurant, Chakana, Tiger Bites Pig, Bodega Cantina, Stirchley Wines And Spirits, Wayland’s Yard, Purnell’s Bistro, Midlands Arts Centre, 40 St Paul’s, The Plough, Hare and Hounds, Birmingham Repertory Theatre, The Jekyll And Hyde, The Rose Villa Tavern, Cherry Reds, The Prince of Wales, The Loft, Laghi’s Deli, Medicine Bakery, The Paper Duck, The Clean Kilo, The Early Bird Bakery and many more.

The App will work on a monthly subscription basis and is available on both Apple and Android devices. Best of all, it can be downloaded instantly – meaning that you no longer have to wait for your card to arrive to start enjoying the perks of being an IB member!

The IB App costs just £1.99 a month to become a member, which is less than the price of a coffee and allows you to save loads of money whilst supporting local Birmingham independents. We also plan to introduce one-off exclusive discounts and deals to the IB App – giving you even more reasons to download the App and start supporting local.
