DENVER — A new app is available that promotes Colorado products and it lets customers know their money is supporting local businesses.

State lawmakers came up with the idea for the “By Colorado” app.

Local businesses that sell local products can sign up and be listed on the app for $89. Then anyone who uses it can see which stores are “keeping it Colorado.”

The app is available for use now.
