The app can see you earning a free cup of coffee just for being in a local park
Over the last few years, local innovator Stephen McPeake has been building on his passion to combine his two greatest passions: technology and contributing to positive social impact.
The free of charge app is based on a community commerce model where people can earn ‘Civic Dollars’ by spending time within parks, open spaces, heritage and conservation zones. The benefit of the app is unique as it covers multiple themes of economy, tourism, infrastructure, health and wellbeing all in one app.
Civic Dollars is currently partnered with councils across jurisdictions including Belfast, Dublin, Donegal and Copenhagen with recent inquiries into the app from local authorities in Australia and New Zealand. So far 450 more people have registered through the app since the launch of the Healthy Aging Project.
