Walk a loop.
Get a real reward.
No sport, no pace, no kilometres. Whether you walk, run, or roll — you draw a circle around your neighborhood, collect badges, and meet fellow loop-goers. A growing community rediscovering its city. Perks at local shops, cafés and bookstores along the way arrive as the first partners join in.

Already on board
Three steps. No app gymnastics.
No points, no levels, no fitness tracker. Pick a loop near you, walk it, collect your badge. Perks at local partners along the way arrive in the next step.
Step 2
Walk the loop, close it
Stroll, run, push a buggy — the app validates your circular route in the background. Closing it earns a badge.
Step 3
Unlock a reward, on the spot
Once the first local partners come on board, they'll drop rewards straight into your Apple or Google Wallet — discount, free coffee, whatever they offer. Until then: your badge and a fresh look at your neighborhood.
Your data
Privacy isn't fine print.
-
Your walk stays yours. Loop validation runs entirely on your smartphone — individual GPS traces and movement profiles never leave your device.
-
Server-side, we store only four things per loop: your loop's shape with a randomized start point (never your actual starting location), elevation profile, activity duration, and challenge assignment. No inference back to you as a person, no linkage across multiple loops.
-
No data sales, no personal identifiers, no ad trackers, no cookies. When you redeem a reward, the partner only gets a yes/no proof — like scanning a coupon, never a route or an identity. The website runs only cookie-free, anonymous analytics (Plausible, EU) — no ad networks. All GDPR-compliant.
