Join the Choose Your Way Warwick Challenge!

Earn rewards for your active and sustainable travel

Choose Your Way Warwick is a rewards programme designed to promote sustainable and active travel at the University of Warwick as part of the Future Transport Zone project managed by Transport for West Midlands.

Staff and students from the University of Warwick can download the free BetterPoints app, track their sustainable and active journeys into and around campus, and earn BetterPoints and BetterTickets as a result. New forms of transport are being trialled on campus and the app will encourage and reward participants to give them a try.

BetterPoints can then be redeemed for a whole host of retail vouchers or donated to charities.

Staff and students must register with their University of Warwick email address to join the programme.
