DIGITAL MEMBERSHIP CARD
A new addition to the BIGGA App!
BIGGA Digital Membership Card – Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the digital membership card?
The digital membership card is an electronic version of your BIGGA membership card, accessible on your smartphone via the BIGGA app or your online member profile.
2. Why is BIGGA moving to digital cards?
This initiative improves convenience for members and supports our commitment to sustainability. Members will always have their card on hand, and the shift helps reduce plastic waste — saving an estimated 25kg of plastic annually.
3. How do I access my digital membership card?
Your digital card will be available through the BIGGA app and your member login area on the BIGGA website. Follow the instructions on this page
4. When will the digital cards become available?
The digital membership card is available now for all members who have downloaded the app.
5. Can I still get a plastic membership card?
Yes. While BIGGA will be phasing out physical cards over the next 12 months, members who do not use smartphones may still request a physical card. Contact the BIGGA Membership Team
6. Is the digital card secure?
Yes. Your digital membership card is accessed through secure platforms (the BIGGA app or your online member account), which are password-protected and encrypted to safeguard your personal information.
7. Will the digital card be accepted at events and for member benefits?
Absolutely. Your digital membership card will be accepted wherever your physical card was previously used — for verifying identity, accessing member discounts, attending events, and more.
8. What if I lose my phone or change devices?
No problem. Simply download the BIGGA app again or log in to your member account on your new device, and your digital membership card will be there.
9. What if I don’t have a smartphone?
Members without access to a smartphone can continue to request a physical plastic card for the time being. Please contact the BIGGA membership team if this applies to you.
