![Comms.png#asset:2730:blogItem](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/cursor-website/images/blog/_blogItem/Comms.png)
The Lincolnshire Co-op is an independent co-operative based in Lincolnshire. With 215 stores across the county providing food, pharmacy, travel, funeral, florist and property services.
With 280,000 members across the UK's second largest county, Lincolnshire Co-op faces quite a challenge when it comes communicating relevant offers and events to their members. The solution was to develop a bespoke software platform; the Comms System in partnership with local technology firm Cursor.
Lincolnshire Co-op Dividend App
Software Product of The Year
![Co-op-app.png#asset:2729:blogItem](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/cursor-website/images/blog/_blogItem/Co-op-app.png)
The new Lincolnshire Co-op Dividend App is an example of how, for something to appear simple and easy to use, it needs to do a lot of work behind the scenes.
Designed and developed by local technology firm Cursor, in partnership with the Lincolnshire Co-op. The Dividend App allows members to collect and spend their dividend using a mobile device in any of the Co-op's 215 stores, view recent transactions as well as offers saved to the App from the personalised Co-op member's website.
The winners at the Lincolnshire Technology & Innovation Awards will be announced at a ceremony on Thursday 7th June as a part of Lincolnshire Tech Week.
