Token Bounties
How Token Bounties work
A Token Bounty is a token reward a business posts for locals who visit and share a review or photo.
Bring locals in to post about you
Token Bounties are the heart of every plan. Post a bounty and locals stop by to share honest reviews, photos of your food or snapshots of your trail, state park or national park. Fresh content from real visitors gets your place trending around town.
Visit, post and earn tokens
Spot a bounty near you, stop by, and post a review or photo to earn token rewards. Spend your tokens on in-app deals and restaurant giveaways. Businesses use bounties to attract content, and you earn tokens for creating it.
