Walking challenges with naira on the line
Walk every day.
Keep your money.
Join a step challenge with friends and put naira on it. Hit your daily step goal every single day and you get it all back, plus a share of what the people who missed a day lose.
Launch season uses practice naira: no card, no cash value. Miss a day and you lose that commitment.
Example figures. Bonuses depend on who finishes and are never guaranteed.
How it works
One rule: hit your goal every single day.
Join a cohort
Pick a daily goal and a commitment. A new cohort opens every day at midnight WAT.
Waka every day
Open Wakapace and walk. Your bar fills as you go and turns green when you hit the goal.
Finish, get it back
Complete every day and your commitment returns, plus your share of forfeits.
The money, plainly
Nothing hidden. Nothing guaranteed.
Your commitment is locked for the whole challenge. What happens next depends only on whether you finish.
Finish every day
Your commitment comes back, plus a share of forfeits.
Miss any day
Your commitment is forfeited to the finishers.
Nobody finishes
Everyone gets their full commitment back.
The fee
10% of forfeited commitments only. Never on yours if you finish.

FAQ
Straight answers
Is my money real?
Not yet. During launch season every account runs on practice naira, starting with ₦15,000. It has no cash value, nothing is charged, and nothing is paid out to a bank. Real-money cohorts will come later with clear notice, and only if you choose to join them.
Is this betting?
There are no odds, no house bets and no games of chance. You commit to your own goal; whether you keep it depends on you walking. Bonuses come only from commitments that other people forfeit, after a 10% fee.
What happens if I miss a day?
That commitment is forfeited to the people who finish. You can keep walking and join another cohort once this one settles. If nobody in a cohort finishes, everyone gets their full commitment back.
How are my steps counted?
The web app uses your phone's motion sensor while Wakapace is open. Browsers pause sensors when the screen is off, so keep the app open while you walk. Phone-sensor steps are unverified; Apple Health and Health Connect arrive with the native app.
Does it work on iPhone?
Yes, in Safari. Allow Motion & Orientation access when asked, and add Wakapace to your home screen for the best experience.
When does a day start and end?
Every challenge day runs 00:00 to 23:59 West Africa Time, wherever you are.
