### 5/5 — Good perks

*2025-05-03*

Good benefits! Wish Jay had more but oh well.

### 5/5 — Great App for riders in Vt and New England

*2025-02-25*

The app is incredible. I find so many deals through my membership and save so much money.

### 1/5 — Could be worse.. maybe not?

*2024-08-16*

Love, love, love VMBA but hate this app. Takes more than a minute to load. Also despite uninstalling and reinstalling it does not update the remaining uses from last for use limited benefits. It’s a great concept but not well executed.

### 2/5 — Buggy app?

*2024-06-29*

I love the VMBA generally, but this app system for member benefits  is troublesome.   The app makes you login every time you use it, and it takes a while to load. It also seems you need to have cell service to access the vouchers.  Also, sometimes the app freezes while loading.  This doesn’t really give me confidence to travel to a downhill location if I’m not sure I’ll be able to access the benefit.

### 1/5 — Mobile app does not work

*2024-05-17*

I have not been able to login, it just spins…

### 1/5 — Hangs on login after latest update

*2024-04-26*

Unable to login to benefits after recent update. Login works on web browser and can view the app as guest but it just spins whenever I attempt to add my profile.

### 2/5 — Downhill Benefits not showing up

*2023-09-17*

My downhill coupons showed as “ coming soon”

The app the did not show up as needing an update. I had to delete the app and re download , and once I did this the downhill coupons showed up. Also would be nice if the app remembered your login credentials so you don’t have to sign in every time.

### 5/5 — Nice

*2023-08-05*

Nice

### 5/5 — Convenient and beneficial to our local trails

*2023-06-07*

The new app keeps benefits and trail chapters add-ons very convenient. I’ve already used more member benefits and discounts this season because I have them so readily available and categorized! I’m sure trail chapters have already season more add-ons and donations because of the ease of use in this app. Thank you for updating to keep accounts logged in! I look forward to seeing more updates and features down the line!

### 5/5 — Super helpful!

*2023-05-05*

So handy for keeping track and using member benefits!
