Premium Membership Updates

It’s the end of the month and with everything going on we wanted to make sure our Premium Members felt a little love. In May we released Premium Munzee Badges to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the program and now we’re happy to offer some more freebies to our players.

We’re pleased to announce that Munzee Premium Members will receive one free Timeshare Munzee credit and one free Flat Matt Munzee tomorrow at 12:00 MHQ. EDIT: This is a one-time only bonus for current Premium Members. It will not be added to future Premium Membership purchases.

You should see both credits in your account tomorrow at noon, which is also when both Timeshares and Flat Matts go on sale in the Munzee Online Store. 

We’re also excited to announce that starting now Premium Members will begin receiving 10 ZeeCred a month to go toward ZeeOps operations. These will be awarded on the 15th of each month.

If you are interested in renewing your Premium account you can do so HERE.

As always, thank you for being a part of the Munzee Premium program! Munzee on!

Player of the Week: Tommy Jensen (listom)

As Munzee has grown over the years, the game has evolved in so many more ways than any of the co-founders could have imagined. We’ve certainly had our fair share of growing pains, but in its essence Munzee has tried to stick to its core goal of getting people out into the world. No one knows this better than those players who have been with us since the beginning. This week’s Player of the Week is a couple, Tommy Jensen (listom).

Who are you?
My name is Tommy Jensen, and my username is “listom”. Some of my friends call me “duracell kaninen” (Duracell rabbit); once I start, it’s not easy to stop again. I chase most mythologicals that come within a 50-60km radius of me.

Where in the world do you live?
I live near Aahurs (Denmark) in a suburb called Tilst. There are 30-40 active players in the area.

How long have you played Munzee?
I scanned my first munzee 3+ years agon on June 5th, 2013. The munzee had been deployed by jacobsedk.

How did you find Munzee?
On a GPS treasure hunt in May 2013, I found a small green sticker that said “Scan for Points”, so of course I had to see what it was about. With a little help from Google, I found Munzee. I had to figure out most of the gameplay myself as there were not many players in the area. After I discovered a Danish Facebook group, my Munzee universe got bigger.

What do you most enjoy about Munzee?
The Clan Wars and getting out and finding Munzees. I prefer physicals, but I will of course cap any virtuals. For me, it’s a little too easy to sit in your car and use a blast to capture 100 munzees. I enjoy the physical league and try to be in the top 3 if I can.

What is on your wish list?
I would like to see the physical league become official; there could be a personal ranking added that would run alongside Can Wars as we know it today, or course with badges for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. I think it would get more people out playing and not just sitting in the car munzeeing.

Tell us about yourself!
I’m 57 years old, and I have 3 children. I am a bus driver, and I have run in many parts of Europe and Scandinavia. In 2009, I lost my wife to cancer. She is the reason I play Munzee today. She got us into treasure hunting which led me to Munzee. I am a very competitive person. Without the competitive element of Munzee, I’m not sure I would have the desire to continue playing.

Other hobbies include:
Munzee takes a lot of my free time, but I still do some treasure hunting. I also like to spend time with my friends and family.

Any last words?
I am very grateful and honored to be nominated POTW. A big thank you to my wonderful friends. Munzee on!

Player of the Week: Sofia and Paul Ward (cbbie77)

As Munzee has grown over the years, the game has evolved in so many more ways than any of the co-founders could have imagined. We’ve certainly had our fair share of growing pains, but in its essence Munzee has tried to stick to its core goal of getting people out into the world. No one knows this better than those players who have been with us since the beginning. This week’s Player of the Week is a couple, Sofia and Paul Ward (cbbie77).

Who are you?
Sofia and Paul Ward (cbbie77)

Where in the world do you live?
Armadale, Perth, Western Australia

How long have you played Munzee?
We joined Munzee on 3 November 2012.

How did you find Munzee?
Through a friend, but she only lasted a week and gave up.

What do you most enjoy about Munzee?
We love Munzee, and we cap every munzee possible. We have a high greenie cap rate, and we have a desire to cap munzees that are often left uncapped. We have had some great success in clans and have met some interesting Munzee players.

What is on your wish list?
Travelling to different parts of the world to cap munzees and see new places we would not normally see if it was not for Munzee.

Tell us about yourself!
We are married and have one child left at home who is busy with her sporting endeavours. I can say Munzee has helped with keeping us active with the walking we have done over the years. Our cat, Duke, is our mascot.

Other hobbies include:
Going out and enjoying the outdoors, driving around for hours, and just being active.

Any last words?
Thank you for the nomination. We feel honoured and will keep capping!
