Free to explore. Pay for the extras.
Browsing the register costs nothing and always will — it’s a public record and it should stay one. What you pay for is the machinery that turns your walking history into your own.

Badges
You’ll see what you’ve earned either way.
Badges are part of the paid record — but we’ll always tell you which ones you’ve earned, by name, whether you pay or not. It seemed dishonest to hide the fact that you’d already done the walking.

and four more
The day planner
Eighteen miles, finishes Gloucestershire.
Choose several you haven’t bagged and it puts them in a sensible order with a distance — and, the part that matters, tells you what finishing them would complete. Part of the full record.
What you get, not just what you can do
Three things worth keeping.
Your map, as a print
Great Britain drawn from the pillars you’ve stood on. Yours at print resolution — the same illustration as our front page, with your data instead of everyone’s.
A record of completion
Finish a county and get it properly typeset: every station number, the date you walked it, your name, and the Crown copyright line. A patch, for people who don’t wear patches.
Your year in pillars
Where you went, what you found, your first and last of the year. Available the day you join — upload the walks you’ve already done and it’s ready that afternoon.
Why condition reporting is free
Because you’d be doing us a favour.
Confirming a pillar still stands makes the register better for everyone. Charging for that would be charging you to improve our own data. It stays free on every plan, forever.
