Rewards for Recycling

Zeloop, a mobile app that is currently at its beta stage, aims to reward users for their proenvironmental behaviours, revolutionizing the way we recycle plastic bottles. All you have to do is play the eco mission; a time limited challenge on a territory or selected collection points. The app will feature Geolocation; a dashboard that displays trophies, medals and metrics such as bottles collected; competitions; forums; a wallet to manage your rewards and the eco missions. Early adopters can sign up to the website to test it.
