What:
During COVID-19, some information about businesses with locations on the Waze map has fallen out of date. This includes contact information and opening hours.

In the spirit of the holiday season in some countries, Waze want to help small businesses to update the local information so more customers can visit their local place!

How:
:arrow: Waze will encourage local businesses to update their information on Waze via a form.

:arrow: Each local Community will have a response sheet and will be able to update the map accordingly. We’ll also share new PUR lists for you to modify.

:arrow: Want to take part in the Raid helping keep small businesses updated in Waze? Fill out this form.

:arrow: Every community member that participates will get a special “Small Businesses Raider badge” and your contribution to the raid will appear on the Hall of Fame.

Got questions? Let me know.
See you at the raid!

Hey,

A huge thank you to all the community members who joined the Small Business raid and added around 450 local business listings to the Waze map!

Thanks to your feedback, we now realize working with a sheet wasn’t optimal. We won’t use this method for future initiatives.

Looking for ways to explain to others about adding a place to the Waze Map? Check out these resources:
:arrow: This Waze help center article for step by step instructions.
:arrow: Gifs-How to add a place and How to edit a place.

Thank you again for your great contribution to local businesses in your area!
