How It Works

A city hunt that does
three things at once.

A GPS-powered treasure hunt a company runs over real places. It gets people moving, takes them somewhere they would have walked past, and turns their footsteps into credit and real-world impact.

01 — CRACK THE CLUE
Go Further

A cryptic hint. No map.

Every trail sits within walking distance of the sponsor’s locations. A cryptic clue, no map pin, no coordinates — just your instincts and the streets around you.

02 — WALK THERE
Explore

Get off the couch

Your phone guides you with a warm/cold radar as you get closer. Physical exploration is the whole point. You'll discover places most visitors never find.

03 — CAPTURE IT
Get Rewarded

GPS confirms you made it

Arrive at the location, GPS verifies your presence, and you capture the mascot. A unique code is generated — proof you were there.

04 — GIVE BACK
Give Back

Your steps fund a cause

Every find releases a donation, paid by the company running the campaign — never taken from your credit and never asked of you. Walking is the whole contribution.

05 — EARN YOUR CREDIT
Get Rewarded

Credit to spend with them

Answer five quick questions and the credit lands in your wallet straight away. Not a voucher, not a prize draw — real credit, redeemable with the company that funded it.

06 — STAY LONGER, SEE MORE
Come Back

Spend more, open more

The further you go with the sponsor, the more trails open up — laneways under skyscrapers, hidden fountains, headlands most people never reach. Earning credit is what unlocks the next one.

Give Back

Every step you take
makes a difference.

Built on a simple idea: exploration should benefit more than just the person doing it. Every find contributes to a cause — funded by the company, at no cost and no extra effort to you. Just walk.

How it works
$1

Every find releases $1 to a cause the sponsor backs — paid by the company, not deducted from your credit.

No opt-in, no minimum, nothing asked of you. Every capture adds to the collective pot. The more people explore, the bigger the impact.

The cause
For people
who need it.

We donate to causes focused on children, health, and community. We believe the best adventures leave something behind — for the places you explore and the people in them.

The bigger picture
Walk
Discover places most people never find
Give
Every step unlocks a real donation
Earn
Credit to spend with the sponsor

This isn't about replacing charity. It's about making everyday activity — a Saturday morning walk, a lunch break, an afternoon with friends — count for something beyond the moment.

What makes this different
✓
You earn credit and fund a cause at the same time
✓
Physical presence required — GPS and photo verified
✓
You discover real, beautiful places — not tourist traps
✓
The more people play, the bigger the collective impact
What's Coming

Sydney is just
the beginning.

We're starting small, doing it properly, and building from real experience. Here's where Catchback is headed.

NOW — SYDNEY

Beta Test

Eighteen hidden places across Sydney. Real GPS hunts, real credit, real donations — proving the model works before we scale it.

NEXT — MORE CITIES

Expand the Hunt

New companies, new cities, new causes. Any business with locations and a loyalty budget can run a campaign. We're building the platform to make that self-serve.

FUTURE — EVERYWHERE

A Global Movement

Loyalty that pays people to move rather than sit still — running across retail, hospitality, travel and whole city precincts at once. That's where this goes.

For Companies

Five mechanics that move
the numbers that matter.

The game is the surface. Underneath, every mechanic is built to drive repeat spend, deeper engagement and real foot traffic to your locations — without discounting your product.

01

Trails sit where your customers are

Every clue is set within walking distance of one of your locations.

Why it matters — Rewards feel tied to you, and coverage only needs to exist around your sites — not the whole city.

02

Rewards are credit, not cash

Earnings land as credit, redeemable only against a future purchase from you.

Why it matters — Face value overstates real cost. The reward buys a repeat purchase instead of giving away margin.

03

Your locations anchor the trails

Each trail is anchored to one of your sites, named on the card and at the moment of capture.

Why it matters — Real feet arrive at real doors, with your name on the moment they got there. Attributable, and hard for a competitor to copy.

04

Impact is company-funded

A donation is released on every find, paid by you and never deducted from the customer.

Why it matters — A credible impact story tied to real behaviour rather than a line in a report — and it can run through a foundation you already support.

05

Spending more opens more

The number of trails available scales with how much the customer has spent with you.

Why it matters — A visible, honest nudge toward the next purchase — earning credit is what opens the next place to go.

Verified, not claimed

Every reward is released against two independent proofs: GPS confirmation inside a tight capture radius, and a photo taken on site. Nobody can claim credit without genuinely making the trip.
