publish when ready.

Test in a live-identical environment

Share a login-free, view-only preview URL. Anyone with the link sees an environment identical to live — review your scavenger hunt together before publishing.

5

Publish (charged here)

Pay based on "days and content" — minimum $60 (1 day + 1 spot). Switch between public and private anytime during the publish period. Credit card payment.

Return to draft (30-day retention, extendable)

When the publish period ends, your scavenger hunt auto-returns to draft and is retained for 30 days. Reminder emails arrive 7 / 3 / 1 days before the publish period ends, with one-click 30-day extension (free, unlimited). Reuse it as a template for next time.
