Ducats - A Community Incentive

There are growing numbers of Shepparton people excited to get their hands on the new Ducats. You may ask why? And that is a very good question. Ask around, and see what people would think regarding using a home-grown "money" to pay for goods and services.
For me it is quite simple: Using Ducats gives me a great incentive, "I want to give priority to — and I’m willing to make an effort for — my region or community. The money I spend will stay in Shepparton and be re-used many times to benefit local businesses."
I'm looking forward to seeing how many people are keen to support our local businesses by grabbing a few Ducats and vice-versa, how many businesses want to support the needs of local people by selling them goods/or services in return for Ducats.

A great way to recognise a retail legend in Shepparton. Very impressed to see the Ductats name to resurface in Shepparton

Ray, it's great to see that the impact of your family business lives on in people's memories. I love the idea of a local currency!

Pay for goods and services trend is become common among people of the community and users get lots of benefits from this circle. Sharing latest updates with followers of the site is very good and hopes you will keep it up.
