WHAT IS BINK!?
Bink is a
mobile game where players are asked to navigate to a target area in the real world and recognize (scan) an image with their smartphone camera to unlock and win a
reward with the option to Pay-it-Forward to participating NGOs!
The Game is all set to go! We just need YOUR help with the reward fund to start populating the real world with Bink quest spots! Players will search for secret logos on the streets of San Francisco and with your help all across the globe, unlocking $100s in cash rewards!
Once you complete a quest we'll provide you a money transfer code you will be able to use at any Money Gram / Western Union location.
Will players keep rewards or pay them forward to NGO...? The leaderboard will show.
FACTS:
For the 1st time ever, we are spending more time on our smart devices that in front of the television, over 5 hrs. a day. Our kids are on their devices in the car, at the dinner table, practically everywhere, from the moment they wake until the moment they sleep. We are building relationships with our smartphones rather than our families. It is through our smartphones that, Bink! reconnects us with what really matters, the real world. Get back to reality and experience real world adventures with your friends playing Bink!

THE COOLEST THING
As the Indiegogo campaign takes place we are adding more locations into the Bink! World for players to win. The more you contribute the more challenge areas we will release! After the 3rd week of January we will begin to notify players that have downloaded the app about new Bink! challenges.
Get out and play Bink!
This is an adventurous mobile game that presents each player with a unique opportunity to reconnect with the real world and enjoy a healthy active activity. (Hint: Be on the lookout, as Bink! grows so will the competition.) If you seek the feeling of achievement then this is right up your alley.

ABOUT BINK! WORLD:
- Every day new challenge areas will be activated.

- Using the clue provided players will have to find a secret image that is hidden inside the area and scan it with the Bink! app.
- Whoever manages to scan the image first gets the reward! Cash rewards can be redeemed in as little as 15 minutes from completion of the challenge. We use a money transfer service provider, like Money Gram or WesternUnion, they have locations all over the USA. It's cash right here and right now. Special offers will be redeemed at participating vendor's storefronts.

What we need & what you can look forward to:
We have the 1st version ready to release during the month of January. We need your help with the reward fund. It's simple, the more perks and contributions we get the more rewards we will release into the Bink World!
We are looking for $2,000 to pay forward to players and NGOs. $20,000 would be amazing and we will run another campaign in February to help reach this stretch goal.
We believe that having a reward fund we can make the real world around us so much more fun and support a global community of adventureres we all belong to as well as those in need.
At the end of the day, the more you contribute:
= more challenges
= more rewards
= players and non-profits win!

Risks & Challenges:
We have a very talanted team of enthusiasts with skills covering anything from legal analysis to technology. However there one risk we would like to share as we want to be absolutely open and transparent with our players and contributers:
- Without a reward fund we might not be able to offer enough daily challenges and rewards.
- Other than that the only risk is to get too excited playing the game!
Other ways you can help:
We appreciate any input that would help us to let more people enjoy Bink!. If you know of an NGOs (charities, good causes, non-proftis) that would like to be a part of our game please ask them to contact us at:
join@thebinkworld.com
If you are a local vendor who wants to create a Bink! challenge around your storefront with a specific reward attached feel free to contact us at:
vendors@thebinkworld.com

FAQ
Q: What do I need to do when I get to the location?
A: Players will have to find the hidden image and scan it with their Bink app, unlocking special offers from vendors or cash prizes ($100 up to $1000) having an option to donate a certain part of their prize to a participating NGO and in turn making the world a better place.
Q: What does it mean to Pay-It-Forward?
A: We keep track what portion of any prizes that you win in a live leaderboard. It shows how much money is paid forward to non-profits and how much is kept by the players. Our hope is that the community will autonomously balance itself and that greed will not overshadow giving; eventually we see Bink creating a sustainable way for non-profits to fund raise on a global scale through our game platform and this IndieGogo campaign.
Q: Where is this going to happen?
A: We will begin the Bink effort in San Francisco and have an interesting method to scale...we are keeping this hush hush for the moment, but you will be the 1st to know when it happens ;)
Q: Do I need to pay to play?
A: The game is absolutely free to play and every player is equal. To play the game it is totally free.
Q: Is there any way to increase my chances to win? What if I contribute more, will my chances improve?
A: Every player in the Bink world is equal, there is no correlation between your donations and ability to enter or play the game. Bink! is not a lottery and we don't charge any money to enter it.

Community testimonials:
From the HULT International Business School pilot:
"It was great to experience the culture more. It involves
you, its not like you are just walking around. It gets you engaged with your
environment."
"It was an awesome day having the treasure hunt, we got to know a
lot about each other, just figuring out the activities, where to go, our sense
of orientation and direction. I feel like I know the city better. I know how to
get around better. It was a pretty awesome day. It really was!"
"The app was great. It was slick. It was fresh. No bugs. You could track live scores of other teams and see how they are doing. It was a lot of fun and we had an amazing time. Great app!!"
"The best part was that as we
were roaming all over the streets without knowing anything about the city at
all. Bink! rocks! Its awesome to move through the San Francisco
streets. I enjoyed the game. Keep rocking!"
"The best part was that it tracked our live progress and showed us in the map; instead of
using a piece of paper to mark something. Here we can see that a visual effect
is much better than a written response. It was a bonus to see that once we
uploaded a picture we could see that other teams we competing."
"The apps clarity, inclusion of
the logo scan, the presence, the positioning of the logos, and featuring a
leaderboard, that was amazing. That was
something that I found to be new to an app. The integration of the scan and the
GPS was the best thing that I saw. It was the best activity to start our MBA
program. I have lived and roamed around the city these past few days, I feel
that I know it better now. Good job guys!"
"It’s an exclusive stand-alone
app for adventure. It makes complete sense to use
something like this because you have exact locations to goto. You have
activities to do once you have reached the goal. It would be great for any brand to
consider using this platform."
"It was the excitement to
cover all the spots that drove us to do this. We were having great fun out
there. I really want to thank you for the application that you prepared. It's
very useful. Each and every college, I would advise them that they should
create this kind of activity that will enhance our knowledge and skill along
with motivating us. Something new is good and this is good. It created some
serious positivity for me!"
