About Waypals
In one sentence
Waypals is a passport for everywhere: a free app where the places you've been become stamps, the places you want to go make a bucket list, and you plan trips and share the memories with friends.
In a few paragraphs
Waypals is a passport for everywhere you've been, and everywhere you're going. Collect a public place you've been, like a state park, a waterfall, a museum or a city landmark, and it becomes a stamp with the month and year. Pin places you want to see on your bucket list, and add a heart to the ones you love. Stamps fill your passport and count toward themed collections. Postcards, reviews and a year in review keep the memories, and any of it can be shared as images sized for posts and stories. Waypals is built around privacy. Only public places can be pinned, never homes or addresses. Friends see the month and year (the exact day only if a member chooses to show it), and a Home Safe Zone can keep stamps near home off what friends see. Only the friends you add see your passport. Places you want to go are always private. A one-time "Verify I'm here" check can mark a stamp as verified without ever storing the location, and places found in a Google Timeline, photos or Strava are read on the phone, never uploaded. Friends can message each other, start groups with their own messages and meetups at public places, and plan trips together, day by day or along a driving route. Visits from before joining can go in as Before Waypals stamps. Everyone who joins before 2027 gets a Founding Explorer stamp and a passport number in the order people joined. Waypals has about 30,000 places: the Pacific Northwest in depth (Washington, Oregon, Idaho, British Columbia and Northern California), every US state and Canadian province including all 63 US national parks, and every other country, including its UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It works in the phone's browser with nothing to install, in English, Spanish, French and Polish. It is free, with an optional Waypals Plus membership that adds trip planning, members' own lists and a few extras.

Mascot
The Waypals Sasquatch, in classic green with his sunglasses and Waypals passport. Use him in ads and posts. Each pose comes with a see-through background (2000 px tall, for layouts and print) and as a square on forest green or cream (1080 × 1080). Please don't change his colors or draw over his face.
Shirts, stickers and print
The Sasquatch drawn for printing: three poses, each in full color, with a bold outline, in 3 colors for screen printing, in 1 color for any shirt, and as a sticker with a white border. Everything is vector (SVG and PDF) with large PNGs, and still reads at 1 inch. The round badges have an empty band for your own words.
