Geocoins - Create Your Own Coin - Buy Code

[FishingWithBacon]

I've looked everywhere and can't find an answer.

 

I want to make my own geocoin and buy a Groundspeak code, but there's no where to do this. Does anyone have any info?

Groundspeak at this current time does not allow Geocachers to purchase individual codes for attaching to "home made" Trackable.

All Trackables without exception must be approved by Groundspeak prior to production. The retailers of Groundspeak approved Trackables have to adhere to strict rules regarding design of all trackables. You would be advised to contact an experienced manufacture who would help you through this process. The GS TB logo or standard Logo CANNOT BE REPRODUCED without the express permission of GS. So for example a windows sticker featuring the TB logo or GS standard logo where the Geocaching client supplies the TB number is NOT ALLOWED without the EXPRESS permission of Groundspeak.

Items which use the TB logo are manufactured under a strict manufacturing licence issued by GSHQ. The use of the GS logo is also regulated and again except for Trackable Tags or Geocoins this logo CANNOT be use without the express permission of GSHQ.

Buy a travel bug and use that code. If you only need one.

Or, you can buy a coin or tag and attach that item's code to whatever you want to send out.
