The World Isn't Ours Alone. It Belongs to Every Living Being.
AOW is a social app made for animals. Kitties, pups, cockatiels, lop-eared bunnies, geckos, ponies… every little one can have an account of their own. You keep the record, and they post and check in from their own point of view, meeting good friends from all over the world. You can also find pet-friendly stores nearby, buy their group deals and book visits right here.
Listing a physical store costs nothing. AOW charges a commission only when a deal sells.
Introductory Rate for 90 Days
New stores get an introductory rate from 5% for their first 90 days, counted from the date of first approval.
Customers Come from the App and the Website
Your store appears on the map in the AOW app and under Local Stores on our website. Each store also has its own QR code; print it and display it in your store so customers can scan it to buy deals and book visits.

Fees and Payouts
Introductory rate for a new store's first 90 days: from5%
The price customers see already includes the AOW platform service fee. It is added on top of the price you set and is never deducted from your earnings.
A voucher settles 3 days after redemption if there is no after-sales request or complaint (for hotel, pet boarding and day care orders, 3 days after check-out or pick-up). At 9 am (store local time) on the following Monday or Thursday, AOW issues the payout and pays it automatically to your payout account.

Five Minutes a Day to Look at the World. 365 Golden Days, 365 RMB in Cash.
In the middle of a busy day, take a five-minute break and look at any animal in the world: maybe a little bird on a branch outside your office window, maybe a cat curled up at the door of the corner store.
A Reminder at a Random Time Each Day
Every day, AOW picks a random time between 9:00 and 23:00 to remind you. It is different every day.
Snap an Animal Within 5 Minutes
Open the reminder and photograph the animal you see within 5 minutes: that is a golden check-in. AI checks the photo, and it has to be a real, living animal. Toys and animals on a screen do not count.
365 Days in a Row, 365 RMB in Cash
After 365 golden check-ins in a row, apply in the app. Once AOW approves it, the money goes into your wallet and you can withdraw it.

After 365 golden check-ins in a row, apply for cash worth 365 RMB. Once approved, it goes into your wallet and you can withdraw it.
On day 3 of your streak, you get 1 pet vote. Golden and flexible check-ins both count toward the streak.On day 5 of your streak, you get 2 pet votes.On day 7 of your streak, you get 1 make-up card: miss a day, and you can fill it in within two weeks.On day 20 of your streak, you get 3 pet votes and 1 make-up card.Every 100 days in a row earns 1 free lucky draw, with a chance to win make-up cards.After 100 golden check-ins in a row, AOW has a real figurine made for them and posts it to you. Once a year.After 365 golden check-ins in a row, apply for cash worth 365 RMB. Once approved, it goes into your wallet and you can withdraw it.
Only golden check-ins count toward the cash. Missed the golden 5 minutes? You can still do a flexible check-in before 23:00 that day: your streak continues, but that day does not count toward the cash.
Missed a day? Within two weeks you can fill it in with a make-up card, and it counts as a golden check-in.
Votes and make-up cards from your streak are used within the month, and each tier is given at most once a month.
Claiming the cash needs ID verification, each ID can claim at most twice, and your pet needs to be verified too (a microchip or registration number, or a photo check).
Cash worth 365 RMB: the app converts it into your local currency at the day's exchange rate and shows it as an approximate amount. The rules in the app apply.
It's written into AOW's rules, and it doesn't cost you a cent extra.
01
Photo Posts, Video Posts, Check-Ins and Map Spots All Count
Every photo or video post, every check-in (golden and make-up check-ins both count) and every spot you light up on the map, we put 0.01 into the giving pool, in that region's currency: A$0.01 in Australia, ¥0.01 in China.
02
A Live Stream of 10 Minutes or More Counts Once
Our servers decide when the stream ends. Starting and stopping straight away doesn't count.
03
Text-Only Posts Don't Count, and It's Up to 10 Times a Day
Each account counts up to 10 times a day, so that's up to 0.1 a day in your local currency. Whether something counts is decided on our servers. The app can't change it.
04
2% of Every Tip, Live Gift and Post Boost
2% of each one goes into the giving pool, and the person paying doesn't pay anything extra.
05
Another 0.2 for Every Item Sold in the Store
It comes out of AOW's commission. Buyers don't pay a cent more.
06
Three Regions, Three Ledgers
Australia, China and the United States keep separate books in their own currencies. They are never mixed and never converted. What we add for you goes into the ledger for your account's region by default (New Zealand goes to Australia, and anywhere else goes to China). You can change it in the app's settings once a year.
07
Every Quarter, It Goes Out
We donate each pool to local animal welfare groups and publish the receipts. The app's home screen always shows how much the pool has saved up.
AOW Was Inspired by a Rottweiler Called Wang Xinnian.
AOW was born in Melbourne, Australia. Wang Xinnian is AOW's very first friend: he was born on 20 July 2022 and came home on 1 January 2023.
While looking after him, we found that pet-friendly places were hard to find, good services were hard to find, and every social app on our phones was made for people. So we made AOW.
“
The world should belong to every living thing, not only to humans. So AOW came to be.
Vet clinics, grooming and boarding services, pet-friendly restaurants and stays, and pet food and supply brands are all welcome to join AOW and be found by pet families nearby.

Be Found by Pet Families Nearby
Vet clinics, grooming and boarding, and cafés and stays you can bring animals to.
No joining fee for physical stores
New stores get an introductory rate from 5% for their first 90 days (see the Platform Rules for details)
Register in the merchant centre, choose to list a physical store, and submit your ID, licences and store photos
Once approved, your store appears on the AOW map with the AOW verified badge
Customers book, send enquiries and place orders in the AOW app or on the AOW website, and you confirm, reply to and redeem them in the merchant centre
AOW (All Our World) is a social app built for animals. You record their lives, and they post, check in and make new friends from their own point of view. You can also buy deals and book services at pet-friendly stores nearby on AOW.
How do I buy a store deal on the website?
Open Local Stores, choose a store and add deals to your cart. When you pay, sign in with an Australian mobile number, email or Google; first-time users are registered automatically. The price shown already includes the AOW platform service fee (which covers AOW's vouchers, redemption, refunds and customer support). After payment, your vouchers appear in My AOW.
How do I use a voucher? Can I get a refund?
Show the voucher's QR code from My AOW or the app at the store, and staff will scan it to redeem it. Unused vouchers can be refunded at any time, and vouchers that expire unused are refunded automatically (the AOW platform service fee is non-refundable). Deals marked No Change-of-Mind Refunds cannot be refunded on request after purchase, but are still refunded automatically if they expire unused. If a refund is due to the store (no booking available, the store is closed, or the store cancels), you receive a full refund.
Which animals can join?
Almost any little one. The AOW species library has 551 breeds in 8 groups, and if yours is missing you can type it in.
I do not have an animal. Can I still use AOW?
Yes. With a human account, you can browse, like and comment, and ask questions in Human Q&A for the animals to answer. If you would like to donate yourself, the app can open the official donation page of an animal welfare organisation, and your donation goes directly to the organisation without passing through AOW.
Can I sign up on the website?
Yes, with your email or mobile number (you need to be at least 16). When you buy a store deal or book a visit on the website, you can also sign in straight away with an Australian mobile number, email or Google. Your animal's profile, ID check and photo check are done the first time you open the app.
Does AOW cost anything?
Downloading and nearly everything else is free. Tips and post boosts use Paw Coins, and whether to spend them is entirely up to you.
Where does the giving pool go?
By default, into the pool for your account's region (New Zealand goes to Australia, and all other countries and regions go to China). You can change this in the app's settings once a year. Australia, China and the United States are accounted for separately and never mixed; each quarter, AOW donates the funds to animal welfare organisations in that region and publishes the donation receipts in full.
Can I buy things on the website?
Yes. Each region has its own store (China, Australia and the United States), and you can switch between them at the top of the store. The delivery address must be in that store's region; to buy for a friend in another region, please use the store for their region. Choose a product, select Buy Now, sign in and pay by card on Stripe's payment page; your card number never passes through AOW. (In the China region, only Alipay and WeChat Pay are supported. They are being set up, so the China store cannot accept payments yet.) You only pay for the items and shipping. For every item sold, AOW also adds 0.2 in the local currency to your region's giving pool.
I run a business. How do I join?
For a pet-friendly local business: register in the merchant centre and choose to list a physical store, with no joining fee (pet breeders pay a deposit; see the Platform Rules). See the List Your Store page for details. For an online store: register with your email in the merchant centre, choose to open an online store and submit your details; once approved and the deposit is paid, you can list products. Your shop sells in the store for its own region, and you can set a separate price for each of the other two regions to sell there as well. See the Open an Online Store page for details.
How do I contact you?
Please email hello@all-our-world.com, and we will reply as soon as possible. If you already use AOW, you can also contact us through Help & Support in the app.
