What We Do

WeWard wants to get more people walking the world over, by any means necessary.  The simple act of walking is good for our bodies, our minds, and the planet. But its immense value has been overlooked and underappreciated.

After 4 years, WeWard rewards 20 millions of people for walking every day and increases its users' walking time by 24% in average. VISION: MORE PEOPLE WALKING, THE WORLD OVER MISSION: TO MAKE WALKING A MORE REWARDING PART OF OUR LIVES
