How it works

From plan to pavement in three steps

No generic travel app — built for the moment you land in China and need addresses drivers can read.

  1. 01

    Pick a city route

    Start from a curated template or build your own. Hotel can wait — stops appear on the map right away.

  2. 02

    Scan to your phone

    No app store. Open the sync link on any phone — your day plan, map, and taxi cards travel with you.

  3. 03

    Show drivers the card

    Tap any stop for a full-screen Chinese address. Copy for DiDi, open in Amap, or hand the phone to your driver.

Full trip lifecycle

Prepare, travel, and wrap up — not just a map

GoSino covers what happens before you land, every day on the ground, and after you're home. Each phase has checklists and tools that match real foreign-visitor needs.

  1. 01 · Before you fly

    Land ready — not scrambling at the airport

    Know what to pack, what you can't bring, and that your phone will work the moment you land.

    • Passport & entry checklist
    • eSIM & Alipay / WeChat Pay setup
    • Hotel address saved in Chinese
  2. 02 · On the ground

    Move through China with confidence

    Your plan lives on your phone. Show drivers an address they can read. Follow today — not a PDF from last week.

    • Day-by-day timeline on mobile
    • One-tap full-screen taxi driver card
    • Accurate maps that stay on the street
  3. 03 · After your trip

    Close the loop — plan the next one

    Keep receipts for tax refund, note what worked, and pick up where you left off for your next visit.

    • Shopping receipts & refund tips
    • Trip marked complete on your dashboard
    • Reuse routes for your next city

Core capabilities

Not generic trip planning — every feature solves a problem foreign visitors hit in China.

  • Maps that match reality

    Pins stay where they should — no drifting into rivers or wrong blocks. Plan six cities with confidence.

  • Phone-ready in one scan

    No app store. Scan a QR code and your whole trip opens in the browser — works on any phone.

  • Drivers understand you

    Tap any stop — your phone shows a full-screen card in Chinese that taxi drivers can read instantly. You plan in English; they see 中文.

    You tap The Bund — your driver sees a full-screen card in Chinese:
