Why Hopscotch

It shows up when you show up.

You set a location once. After that, Hopscotch does the rest. Walk into your gym and your membership card is waiting. Pull up to the coffee shop and your rewards card is already there. No opening apps. No searching. No fumbling at the register.

How it works

Set it once. Skip the fumble forever.

1

Scan your card

Point your camera at any barcode. Hopscotch reads it and saves it in under 10 seconds. Works with every barcode format — gym fobs, coffee cards, grocery rewards, library IDs, all of it.

2

Drop a pin

Search for the store or tap the map. Set a radius. Done. Hopscotch monitors in the background using geofencing — no GPS drain, no battery hit.

3

Walk in. It's there.

Cross the geofence and your card surfaces automatically — as a notification, in your digital wallet, and on your smartwatch.

Smart Location

Set it once. Never think about it again.

Drop a pin on any location and define a radius. Hopscotch runs silently in the background with no GPS polling, no battery drain. When you cross the boundary, your card is waiting.

Built for your platform

Native on both. Compromised on neither.

Apple Wallet

Every card becomes a Wallet pass. Access it from the lock screen without opening Hopscotch.

Apple Watch

Your cards on your wrist. Browse your collection and let the scanner read straight from your Watch.

Widgets

Your most relevant card, one glance away. The widget knows when you're near a store and surfaces that card first.

Why Hopscotch

Built differently, on purpose.

Most loyalty card wallets are built around ads, accounts, or upsells. Hopscotch isn't.

How data is used now & in the future

Our views on privacy.

Most apps tell you "we respect your privacy" and leave it there. We'd rather show you exactly what we do and don't do at the architectural level.

Today

How Hopscotch works today

What we'll never do

  • Sell your data to anyone, ever
  • Show you ads from third parties
  • Track you across other apps or websites
  • Build a profile of where you shop or what you buy
  • Run any third-party code in the app — zero external dependencies, no analytics SDKs, no crash reporters, no ad networks
  • Read your contacts, photos, or anything we don't need
  • Charge for the consumer app

That's the entire list. Not your location history, not your purchases, not your behavior across the app.

What you control

  • Location access — needed for geofencing. Processed entirely on your device — we never see your real-time location
  • Notifications — local only, triggered on your device when you cross a geofence you set
  • Camera — used only when you scan a card or attach a reference photo. Photos stay on your device with location metadata stripped before saving
  • iCloud / Google Drive backup of your cards — managed and encrypted by Apple or Google. We never see your backup.

What our server actually knows

  • Nothing, today. When you tap "Add to Apple Wallet" or "Add to Google Wallet," your card data is sent to our pass server, used to generate the pass, and immediately discarded.
  • Transient server error logs — rotated automatically, not retained beyond a few days, no behavioral data attached
  • App Store + Play Console stats — country / metro level, anonymized to us by Apple and Google, only if you've opted in via your device settings
Third-party hosting disclosures
  • Vercel (wallet-pass host): Standard HTTP request data (IP, timestamp, path) is captured for debugging. We don't archive or analyze it; it auto-expires per Vercel's retention.
  • Cloudflare Pages (website): hopscotch.city runs on Cloudflare. They provide privacy-preserving aggregate web analytics — page views, country/region, referrers — visible to us in their dashboard. No cookies, no fingerprints, no per-user identifiers.

Where your data lives today

Your cards, locations, photos, and settings are stored on your phone — not our server. To make sure you don't lose them if you change devices:

  • On iPhone: If you have iCloud Backup enabled, Hopscotch is included by default. Apple encrypts your backup; we never see it.
  • On Android: Google's Auto Backup to Google Drive does the same. Google encrypts; we never see it.

Opt-in offers and rewards from businesses

When this ships, businesses whose cards you've added will be able to send you deals and reward updates — but only if you turn it on, per business. Hopscotch stays free for you. Here's the architecture we're designing toward.

What you'll control

  • Account — optional, only required for opt-in offers and rewards. Lets us and the business help if something goes wrong with an offer, punch, or reward.
  • Opt-in offers and rewards from businesses whose cards you've added — off by default, on per-card
  • Push notifications from each business you opt into — per-business toggle
  • Your card library stays on your device — backup is still via iCloud or Google Drive. No account needed for your cards to be safe.

Your choice, your data. If you don't turn on opt-in offers, there's nothing to track. If you do, we track the bare minimum to make them work.

What our server will know

  • Which businesses you opted into offers from — so they can reach you
  • Your reward progress per business — so "8 of 10 punches" stays consistent wherever you log in
  • Auth / session tokens so we know it's you logging in
  • Your card library is never stored on our server — it lives on your device. The account only carries the opt-in and reward state above.
Push notification disclosures
  • Apple APNs / Google FCM: When we send you an opt-in offer, Apple or Google handle delivery and see the device token + timestamp. We hand off and don't see anything beyond a send acknowledgement.

How we'll protect against abuse

  • Account sign-up velocity — catches bot-created accounts and fake businesses
  • Punch redemption patterns — catches impossible scenarios (10 punches in 10 seconds across 5 cities)
  • Business verification data — name, address, payment method (Stripe handles payments; we never see card numbers)
  • User abuse reports — when you tap "Report this notification" or "Report this business," we review the issue

Trust and safety only. Never shared with businesses about specific users. Never used to profile you. Retained 90 days, then deleted.

End-to-end encrypted account data

When the account ships for opt-in offers and rewards, here's the architecture we're designing toward:

  • Your opt-in choices and reward progress are encrypted on your device using keys derived from your password — before they ever reach our server
  • What we store is encrypted — only your devices can decrypt it.
  • We can never build a cross-business profile of your behavior or be compelled to share what we don't have — we don't hold the keys.

Your card library is never stored on our server — it lives on your device, backed up via iCloud or Google Drive. (Card data only transits our pass server briefly when you tap Add to Wallet, then gets discarded.)
