For guests

Your Passport is a stamp book now

Every kava bar you check in at gets a stamp that levels up with your visits, plus ranks, milestones and a public page you can share if you want one.

The Passport card with 7 stamps in 2 states, and the Stamps tab grouped by state

Every kava bar you check in at gets a stamp in your Passport. Go back on other days and that stamp levels up. Your card keeps count of your bars, your states and your rank, and the bars you've already been to are stamped for you.

Why we built it

Your Passport used to be about one thing: a free first shell at a list of bars. Those first shells moved to Exclusive Deals, next to every other app-only deal. That left the Passport with nothing to do.

So we gave it a better one. Kava people hop bars, try a new spot on a trip, and have a home bar they'd defend with their life. Now your Passport keeps track of all of it, with no extra steps. You just check in like you already do.

Stamps that level up

Each bar gets its own stamp with its initials, its city and the date of your first visit. One stamp per bar, grouped by state. Visit on different days and the stamp turns Silver at 5 visits, Gold at 15 and Regular at 30.

Tap any stamp to see it up close: how many visits, how far to the next level, and a Share my stamp button for your story.

Silver at 5 visits
The Driftwood Kava Bar, a Gold stamp, 16 visits, 14 to Regular
Gold at 15

Ranks for the bar hoppers

The more bars you stamp, the higher your rank: Bar Hopper at 3 bars, Krawler at 5, Kava Nomad at 10, Root Ranger at 25 and Legend at 50. Two states earns you a state milestone too. Milestones shows how close you are, and List has every bar with your visit count.

Under your card there's a Next stamp line: a bar near you that you haven't been to yet, and its first-visit deal if it has one.

Your own Passport page, if you want one

Want to show off? Turn on your public page and you get a link and a QR code your friends can scan. It shows your first name, your stamps and the month you first visited each bar. Never days or times. You can hide any stamp, and the page stays off until you turn it on.

Where your first shells went

The first time you open your Passport, it tells you what moved: Passport Deals are Exclusive Deals now. Your first shell on us is still free at those bars. One button takes you straight there.
