Billed once a month, at your price on that day. Hit every week and it stays at $0.

100% of what you pay, after VAT and card fees, goes to carbon removal.

  1. Pick your minutes for the week

    From 60 to 300 minutes of cardio a week: runs, rides, walks, swims, anything Strava records. The default is 90.

  2. Connect Strava

    steps.org reads the activities your watch, bike computer or phone already sends to Strava. Nothing to type in, nothing to upload.

  3. Hit them and it's free

    Miss a week and your price goes up $10 a month, all of it to carbon removal. Each week you hit takes $5 off, back down to $0.

Where the money goes

A missed week costs you more. It never earns steps.org anything.

When you hit your weeks

$0 a month

Keep hitting your minutes and your price stays at $0. You pay nothing.

When you pay

100% to carbon removal

100% of what you pay, after VAT and card fees, goes to carbon removal through Stripe Climate. steps.org never keeps any of it.

Some of the carbon already up there has to come back down. Every metric ton is checked before it's delivered.

Only real activity counts

Your activity minutes are the moving time from your Strava activities, any sport, added up over the week. An activity counts when all three are true.

  • Recorded by a device: a watch, bike computer or phone
  • With heart rate or a GPS track
  • Started during the week, Monday 12:00 a.m. to Sunday 11:59 p.m.

Activities typed in by hand don't count.
