The Greater Kansas City Chamber of Commerce now has an app for that.

The chamber announced Friday that a new mobile application, “KCChamber2Go,” is available to members.

The chamber partnered with Kansas City-based software developer Moblico Solutions LLC and Fairway-based MetroMedia Inc. to create the interactive program for Android, Apple's iPhone and other smart phones.

The app includes an interactive member directory, chamber and member news feeds, access to local deals and discounts, a barcode reader, Twitter feeds, ChamberTV viewing access and other features.

Tools are intended to let chamber members get more out of their involvement.

“The KCChamber2Go app truly offers a groundbreaking level of interaction, and we are excited for its anticipated success,” chamber CEO James Heeter said in a written statement.
