About

WeWard is the mobile application that already motivates over 20 million people to walk every day.

Too often neglected, walking is a gentle and healthy solution to health, ecological and local issues. By promoting this activity, WeWard acts in favour of well-being, local dynamism and against pollution.

Launched in 2019, WeWard is developing an app that allows its users to reconnect with walking. The app is based on a fun and innovative system of challenges to take on and rewards to win. The more you walk, the more Wards, our digital currency, you can exchange for offers, donations to charities or euros.

The application also offers its users a succession of good deals online and nearby, rewarded in addition to walking, thanks to a large network of partners such as Nike, Adidas and Booking.
