It's a discount card where you can get discount off of anything from a Laptop to Car Insurance and pretty much everything inbetween!
Some companies offer a discount in their stores, some online and some offer it in both - if you get a BLC then always ask when at the till as the worst thing they can do is say no they don't accept it, but if they do then you'll get some money off.
I have personally used it to get money off of restaurant bills and more recently, a large genuine discount off of my prescription glasses! Even some fast food restaurants offer a discount on production of it, some require you to order through a specific app or website link (KFC and McDonalds have offered discounts before but you had to order through the app).
At the moment I even get a (tiny) Blue Light Card discount at ASDA but you have to have the ASDA Rewards App and add it to the app and then you get extra cash back on your reward card.
Who can get one?
Originally it was just for Blue Light Workers i.e. people who work for the Emergency Services - a way of saying thank you for what they all do.
It has recently been opened up to people who work in Schools (Support Staff as well as Teachers) so if you work in a School and want to apply, simply choose Teacher from the drop down list regardless of your role/job title.
Here is a list of who can currently apply for a Blue Light discount Card:
