An app that lets you get discounts in your local community stores when you walk.
Users walk and based on the data from their phone's health app, Jaywalk will credit "Jaycoins"(not a cryptocurrency) of which they can use to get discounts at supporting brick-mortar shops. The coins reset every night so users must walk everyday to enjoy daily discounts, no accumulation allowed.
I like the idea and vision behind the creation of this app. Local shops need customers in the community for support, while people need an incentive to walk and keep fit. Jaywalk can be the bridge to help both happen.
While it depends on the local community to first apply as merchants on the app and users in the area walking to get the discounts - thereby causing the "chicken/egg problem". It is certainly an interesting app to try out if it means hoping to get some discounts at your local shop.

I think the idea behind this whole app is community driven adoption, so like if you want a shop to participate, you'd get your friends to encourage the shop to join out of sheer demand.
I dont think there is any at the moment. But nothing is stopping the users to start petition too... if there is enough users. Chicken/egg problem

According to info on http://jaywalk.me the Jaywalk team are relying on users of the app to spread the word to their favourite merchants. They are saying:

Great concept. However Jaywalk will only work if merchants everywhere on the globe come onboard.

And merchants will only come onboard if there is demand from the users..
Chicken and Egg problem and many social based apps face.
