Illinois Farm Bureau members now can access additional member benefits and discounts when they’re on the go with the new membership benefit web platform and iPhone App.
 
“We’re extremely pleased to offer this new platform for our members, giving them added discounts on hotels, theme parks, restaurants, movies and everything in between,” said Melissa Rhode, Marketing Director, Illinois Farm Bureau. “Best of all, the app shows both local and national discounts, and can even notify members when they’re near a business that offers discounts.”
 
To access the new web platform at https://ilfb.abenity.com, members must create an account and provide their Illinois Farm Bureau membership ID number.  Members can also go to the iPhone App Store, search IL Farm Bureau Membership Benefits and download the app on their iPhone or iPad.  Once downloaded, members may customize the app to include frequently used offers; search offers by business name, location and category; and provide instant in-store discounts at nearby restaurants and retailers.
 
“Our members have nothing to lose and everything to gain with this new platform,” Rhode said. “Members will find more than 302,000 discounts on top of what is already available through their Illinois Farm Bureau membership.”
 
Members who have questions about the app or additional Illinois Farm Bureau member benefits may contact Lee County Farm Bureau, 815-857-3531, leecfb@comcast.net or the Illinois Farm Bureau Membership Call Center at 309-557-2689.
