Pinpoint your location with Locpin

We all know how cumbersome it is to endlessly repeat delivery directions or wait in for parcels that don’t show up, or the frustration when the postcode you fed into your satnav leaves you searching for your destination even though it thinks you have arrived. The reasons could be plenty; complex addresses, hard to find addresses or post codes that are not yet listed to name a few.

So, what can be done to ensure hassle-free navigation to any location?

Locpin is your answer.

This smart addressing service pinpoints any address or location. You set the exact location and can enhance it with all sorts of additional information to help people find you quickly and easily. By linking this precise location to your email address or phone number it becomes even easier to share with businesses and individuals who need to get to you. Locpin provides all the information needed to find a place and what to do when you arrive. Simply share your Locpin and others can navigate to your precise destination easily using our integration with Google Maps.

How does this work?

1. You create a Locpin

● Type in your postcode or address and click search.

● Zoom in on the map and position the Locpin to the exact location. If there is specific entrance or the entrance is hidden, then you can specify that as additional notes. For example, “look for the black gate.”

● The site generates a unique code.

● Quick registration with your email and password.

● And you’re done!

2. Add waypins

● If it is a particularly difficult to find address — add waypins to show a specific route to your location.

● Set the first one at the furthest point from your locpin and add more if needed as the route approaches your location.

● Add a note to each waypin, for example “Turn right over the bridge”

● Adjust the order of waypins using the up/down buttons on the left of the list.

You can have up to three Locpins for free; One for your home, work or any other place. Locpin uses your email address, and optionally your mobile number, as a personal identifier to make it easy to share your Locpin details with others. All these details are secure. When you create a Locpin, it is set to private by default.

You control who you share it with and it will not appear on any public searches on this website and will never be available via search engines. Registered users, including businesses will need your permission to view your Locpin, and you decide if you want to share it with them.

Locpin is your location fingerprint — you alone own it, share it, move it.
