Your hunt in 3 steps

All you need is the free app and a New Zealand banknote.

  1. 1

    Scan any banknote

    Open Scan, line up the serial number inside the green frame and tap “Scan serial number.”

  2. 2

    Discover what’s hidden

    You might record a new find, add to your score, uncover a message or win a prize!

  3. 3

    Keep exploring

    The more notes you scan, the better your odds of finding hidden Specials. You can also browse local deals, check your Wallet and see how you rank on the Leaderboard.

How points work

As notes move through the real world, your score grows when other players discover cash you activated. It’s like an NZ-wide game of Tag!

Scan the same note again yourself and it won’t add more points—but if another player scans a note you activated, you earn the five-point tag bonus.

Action Points
Scan a note that’s new to you +1
Another player scans a note you activated +5
Redeem a deal +10
Scan the same note again yourself No extra points
