Places Munzees (POI)

Places Munzees, aka POI, are a unique type of virtual munzee that may be capped each munzee day. The original Places munzees were deployed by MHQ, but they eventually opened up deployment opportunities to the players. Places are not only a nice way to keep your map fresh with things to cap, but also a great way to show off your area by directing people to areas of interest. 

A player may purchase one of each type of Place munzees every 30 days form the Munzee/Freeze Tag store. Use the drop down menu to choose the type you wish to purchase. Deploy your places munzee using quick deploy or coordinates, using the guidelines for placement. They will go into a que at Munzee Support for review and if approved will be deployed for you. You will receive an email informing you if it was approved, or if denied, why it was not approved. If you feel the denial was in error, you can appeal and sometimes it will be approved after all.  If your placement is denied, you have the oppurtunity to pick a new place. Edit your location and resubmit. The more details you can give on your site the better. If your site doesn't have an google map icon already, it's best to put information in your notes when you deploy. A link to the website of the place or some background info. That's always nice for those who cap it as well to get some info on the location.

Place munzees have specific guidelines, which can be read HERE.  Following these will help with getting your POI approved. POIs must be placed at least 1 mile from another POI of the same type. So one musuem POI, must be a mile from another museum POI,etc. Different types of POI follow normal proximity rules. 150 ft from one you deployed, or 50 ft from someone else's deploy. Use the POI Planner to help you plan out your deploy. 

POI can be capped from a 1000 ft radius, with the exception of Airport POI which may be capped in a mile radius. 

There is also a virtual gardens POI that is helpful for locating munzee art. The Garden POI may be placed within a half mile of the same type, for dense garden areas. You may also buy 2 per month at $5 each. As such, it has a lower point structure.
