Contribution rewards

How Rewards Work

Help other RVers, earn the RVing Life Guide. The map is only as good as the people using it.

  1. 1

    Confirm something about a station you visit

    One tap: still open, fee, water, hours — or a photo. Corrections count as much as confirmations.

  2. 2

    Your reward is credited instantly

    First accepted contribution = a month of the RVing Life Guide — offline maps, trip planner, and no ads everywhere you use RVingLife. There is no review queue between you and your reward.

  3. 3

    Five different stations = a full year

    Contribute at five different stations during the promo and your Guide membership extends to a full 12 months.

1 station · 1 month5 stations · 1 year

If you report a station closed or gone, we double-check with one more RVer before removing it from the map — nobody should get stranded by a mistake. You’re still credited right away.

The rules, in plain language

  • One accepted contribution earns one month of the RVing Life Guide, credited to your account instantly.
  • Five accepted contributions on five different stations earn a full year. Five updates to the same station earn one month, not five — the map needs breadth, not repetition.
  • One year-reward per account. After you’ve earned the year, further contributions are still welcome and still credited to your public contributor record, but they don’t stack additional years.
  • This is a launch-period promotion. It may be time-boxed or changed in the future. Rewards already credited to your account are yours and won’t be taken back if the promotion ends.
  • Closure reports are double-checked with a second RVer before the station comes off the map. Your reward doesn’t wait for that check — you’re credited when your report is accepted.
  • Rewards never depend on what you report. “Still open” and “permanently closed” earn exactly the same credit. We reward the act of checking, not the answer.
  • Reviews never earn rewards. Star ratings and written reviews are excluded from this program entirely, so no review on RVingLife is ever incentivized.
  • Fabricated contributions forfeit rewards. Please only report on places you’ve actually visited. Reports we determine to be fabricated are removed, and any rewards earned from them are revoked.

Disclosure

Contributors who confirm, correct, or photograph dump-station data receive free time on the RVing Life Guide, a paid membership, as described on this page. This is a material incentive, and we disclose it wherever contributions are shown: station updates on RVingLife may come from contributors who received Guide time for contributing. The incentive is the same regardless of what a contribution says, is never offered in exchange for a positive (or any) review, and reviews are excluded from the program. Questions about the program?
