Frequently Asked Questions
-
How does StepUp Collective work?
Using the StepUp Collective mobile app is a great way to keep track of your daily activity and help the causes that matter most to you.
StepUp Collective is free and paid for by ads. Every 1,000 steps you take earns you a reputation point and an ad view for the organization you support. Watch the ad to claim Streak Saver progress and 10 more reputation points. We share at least half of our ad revenue with the charities and not-for-profit organizations our community chooses, split according to each member's activity.
StepUp Collective sends the donations every quarter (January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1), once an organization's combined total from all users reaches $50 CAD. Anything below that carries over to the next quarter.
You don't need an account to take part, but signing in to the app unlocks more:
1. Create or join teams and take part in team challenges
2. Track your reputation points for each organization you support
3. Keep your step history and move it to a new device
4. Get updates about new features and improvements to the app

Does it cost anything for a charity or non-profit to join StepUp Collective?
Absolutely not!
Whether you're walking for a cause, or you're a charity or non-profit receiving donations, StepUp Collective is 100% free for everyone. There are NO hidden costs or fees.
-
How much will a charity make from my activity?
We share at least half of our ad revenue with the charities and not-for-profit organizations our community chooses, and the one you pick receives a share based on your activity. The more you walk, the more your organization receives!
And you're not walking alone: other people support the same organizations, so the total donated to each one can add up quickly!
-
What else can I do in the app?
Besides counting your steps:
Teams: create or join up to 5 teams of up to 50 people and see each other's steps from the last 7 days (anyone can turn sharing off).
Challenges: team goals, races and daily streaks that your team can opt into.
Achievements: earn badges as you reach new milestones.
Favourites: star the organizations you care about and switch who you support at any time.
Statistics: your daily, weekly and monthly steps, calories and distance.
-
Alright, what's the catch?
There's no catch, and it never costs you anything. Seriously!
StepUp Collective is built and maintained by one developer to give back to the community. At least half of our ad revenue goes to the organizations our community chooses. The rest covers the costs of running StepUp Collective, such as servers, app store fees and ongoing development.
From the developer: "I also love walking, and so does my dog, and this pedometer gives every step I take a little more purpose. And the impact of my steps is multiplied by every new contributor. Thank you to all who support this app!"
-
Is StepUp Collective a charity?
No. StepUp Collective is run by Web Cyte Development Inc., a for-profit Ontario company. It isn't a registered charity or non-profit, and it can't issue charitable tax receipts.
At least half of our ad revenue is donated to the organizations our community chooses, and the rest covers the costs of running and developing the app.
