Kann man eigentlich seine eigenen Geocoins designen und unter die Leute bringen?
Dieses Thema habe ich vor einiger Zeit mal bei Groundspeak angefragt. Hier die Antwort:
Please note that we are not allowing the tracking of personal geocoins.
We are only working with organized groups of geocachers and geocaching
state and national organizations.
Here is some additional information regarding our geocoin tracking policy
and requirements.
First, unlike the usageocoins, the tracking numbers printed on all new
coins must be alphanumeric, rather than solely numeric. The purposes for
this is to avoid people being able to guess the numbers and falsely log
coins/TBs.
The format can contain a prefix (like CA_________) and then be followed by a random combination of 4 letters & numbers (we'll generate the numbers, you specify the prefix if you'd like one). So, a typical coin number example would be: CA62h8 or CA124j.
We can send these codes with corresponding activation codes in a txt file
or excel file, whichever works best for you.
If you wish to use the geocaching.com logo, you would have to include the
URL beneath the logo (like on the usageocoins) but you are not required to
use the logo if you so desire.
The only required text for trackable (on geocaching.com) coins would be:
"Trackable on Geocaching.com"
Groundspeak will need to approve the final design prior to production in
order to make sure that we are comfortable with the coin design (this is a
family friendly site, as you know).
The cost per tracking number is US$1.50 and can be paid via paypal or
credit card. There will be a 1,500 number minimum purchase required.
Once you have your design picked out please send it to
[email protected] for review. Thanks!
Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
Happy Geocaching!
