New App launch for Canal St Card holders
We are delighted to announce the launch of our brand-new app for the Canal St Card! With cardholder numbers at an all-time high, it is the perfect time to upgrade to a quicker, more secure digital membership. Here is what you need to know: Easy Migration: If you are an existing cardholder, your subscription and expiry details have already been moved over. Just complete a simple form to gain access. Total Security: Your private financial information is completely secure. The app prevents screenshots and features a protective background watermark to keep your data safe. Plastic Cards: Physical cards remain fully valid. All participating venues have been notified, so using your card will be as seamless as ever. Out with the Old: The new app is officially live, and the old wallet-style digital card has now been deactivated. We are also proud to share that we have just sent another donation to the George House Trust. Our commitment to them, and to the other fantastic initiatives supported by card sales, remains as strong as ever. Check out the new app today and join our unique community!
