How to Accept Chamber Bucks

Don’t turn away anyone who wants to pay you with Chamber Bucks! They are in the form of a check in $5 and $10 increments. Chamber Bucks are designed to be spent right here in our area at your business. While Chamber Bucks can be redeemed at any local business, we ask that only CURRENT chamber members honor the Chamber Bucks. Chamber Bucks are to be treated as cash when tendered at your business. If the check is already made out to the person who handed it to you, just be sure they have en-dorsed the back of the check. (Then it is the same as cash.) Just put the Chamber Bucks check's) in with your regular deposit and it will go through your bank as if it were cash. Be sure to contact us at 217-4792 or email at: info@avonmnchamber.com if you have any questions. Thank You!
