Game store owners come see how to cash in on what may be the biggest crazy of this generation: Pokemon GO!
Niantic is now taking requests to sign up addresses to become PokeStops, which could mean BIG profits and new customers for all the game and hobby stores out there!
With over 21 million users, Pokemon is a craze after just one week of existence.
Our friends at Gamer’s Haven Colorado Springs CO, that just happened to BE a PokeStop from the onset, report a huge influx of foot traffic and interest in their location at all hours of the day.
Right now this request looks limited to business addresses only, and I would imagine that it would behoove business to be the “first on their block” to sign up as well.
All you have to do is fill out the form at the link below to start the process:
Sign Up To Become a PokeStop Here
Interestingly enough you can also use this form to request your property to NOT be a Pokestop if you have no interest in the social event of the 2000 teens.
