Bought it for my mum on a whim. She's still showing the map to her friends six months later.

Questions
A Square is a documented unit of protection linked to a specific GPS-defined square metre of real conservation land. It is non-financial and does not transfer land ownership. You can name it, see it on the map, and track its impact.
The land is legally owned and managed by our conservation partner, C4 (Community for Coastal and Cassowary Conservation), a registered Australian not-for-profit. Square by Square facilitates funding and mapping.
Our first project, Djarawong, is located in the Wet Tropics Rainforest near Mission Beach, Queensland, Australia. This is one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth and home to endangered species like the Southern Cassowary.
Protection for the current project is secured for a minimum of 10 years through C4 ownership and contractual agreements. Longer-term stewardship is the intent, and any extensions or updates are communicated transparently. Other projects run on their own timelines.
You receive a personalised certificate instantly, your Square appears on the live map with your chosen name, and you get access to your Protector Profile showing your real-time impact (CO₂ captured, freshwater produced, species protected).
Cancelling only stops future monthly Squares. Squares already allocated to you remain linked to the current project's minimum 10-year protection commitment. You can resubscribe anytime from your account page.
Your contribution funds three things: securing at-risk rainforest through our conservation partner, long-term stewardship and management of the land, and platform operations (mapping, certificates, community tools).
Yes! Squares make meaningful gifts. At checkout, choose the gift option, enter the recipient's name and email, and they receive a beautiful digital certificate. The Square is named in their honour on the live map.
