-# Verifying Locations
-
-## Verify, don't trust. 🕵️
-
-Does a location accept bitcoin?
-
-You can verify this in a number of ways:
-
-- visit the location in person
-- phone the location
-- check their website or other online sources
-- ask a local in the area
-- contact via social media
-- send them an email
-
-Once a location has been verified you can update the [survey tags](tagging-instructions.html#verified-tags---more-information) on OpenStreetMap so that the location will have a [checkmark](map-legend.html#verified) visible on BTC Map.
-
-Below is an email template for the UK that you can use as a starting point and adapt it to contain correct information about your own local area.

-Hello,
-
-I appreciate that you are busy, so thank you for taking a couple of minutes to read and respond to this email. I'm part of a team of volunteers working on [BTCmap.org](https://btcmap.org/) - an open source map which shows all merchants which accept Bitcoin worldwide. According to OpenStreetMap data, your business accepts Bitcoin - or perhaps did so in the past!
-
-Please can you reply to this email with the following information:
-
-**A) Yes, we still accept Bitcoin!**
-
-**B) We no longer accept Bitcoin, but would be interested in accepting it in the future**
-
-**C) We no longer accept Bitcoin and have no interest in accepting it in the future**
-
-Before you respond with Option C) you might want to consider that Bitcoin payments have come a long way in recent years...
-
-- The "Lightning network" allows Bitcoin to be sent near-instantly with very low fees - you can even accept contactless [Bitcoin card](https://www.boltcard.org/) payments!
-- Services such as [CoinCorner](https://www.coincorner.com/) allow you to automatically convert the Bitcoin you receive into GBP.
-- There is a growing community of bitcoiners who want to spend their "sats". Accept it and they will come!
-- Free and impartial advice on getting started is available from [Bridge2Bitcoin](http://bridge2bitcoin.com/).

-I look forward to hearing from you soon. Happy to chat and answer any questions that you may have!
-
-All the best,
