The Badge System

No points.
Identity markers.

Badges are your visible proof — of movement, character, and moments in Berlin. Three types, one system. Every Badge tells a story.

How Badges Work

Badges aren't rewards for effort — they're identity markers. What you've done, who you are, and when you showed up.

⚡
Activity Badges
What you've done
Automatically awarded when Loop criteria are met. GPS-validated, tamper-proof. Your first Loop, your first Badge.
🧭
Character Badges
Who you are
Earned through patterns over time — curated by encirkl. Walking in any weather or always discovering new routes shows character.
🌙
Seasonal Badges
You were there
Time-locked, limited, one-time only. High collector value. Miss the moment, miss the Badge — forever.
