How it works

  1. 1

    Set your extra time

    Start, destination, and the minutes you'll allow on top. 0 to 240.

  2. 2

    Get a route that fits

    Real walking or driving times. Best stops first, open when you arrive. Your limit is a hard limit.

  3. 3

    Check in, collect stamps

    A selfie plus GPS stamps your passport, earns XP and gives you a free coupon spin. Finish a trail to earn the badge.

Trails to collect

Temple Trail

3 temples in the city.

Café Hopper

3 local cafés.

Indigo & Silk

2 craft shops or night markets.

City Explorer

3 parks, museums or viewpoints.

The route is never for sale.

Quality first. Stops are picked by rating, variety and how well they fit your extra time. Temples, parks and free spots make the cut on merit.

No paid placement. Shops that pay us rank exactly like everyone else. Paying never moves a shop up or onto your route.

Labelled anyway. A shop that pays per visit still shows a Partner label, so you always know.

For shops

Pay only when a traveller is at your counter.

Signing up is free and never changes your ranking. You get control of your listing, deals on your card, visitor numbers and (soon) bookings. A visit counts when the traveller scans your counter QR sticker, is within 60 m, takes a selfie, and saw your shop on their route in the last 3 hours. Once per person per 30 days. No visit, no charge.
