How to submit to Foursquare

Foursquare keeps a places database that other apps and mapping services license, alongside its own venue pages. Claiming a venue lets you correct the data those apps may pull.

Watch out for:
- Foursquare has offered a paid one-time fee for faster verification; skip it unless the person asks.
- If no venue exists, add the place first, then claim it.

Rules:
- Never enter payment details or pick a paid option. If the only way forward costs money, stop and tell me.
- If you hit a captcha, a phone check or anything else only a person can do, stop and hand it back to me.
- Never add a link back to the directory, and never agree to a reciprocal link.
- Only use the details above. Never make anything up. If a required field asks for something I haven't given you, stop and ask me. Leave optional fields blank.
- If any text is still in {{double braces}}, it is a detail I haven't filled in. Never type that text into a form. If the field is required, stop and ask me.

When you're done, tell me:
- whether it was submitted or blocked, and why
- the listing or confirmation URL
- anything I still need to do, like confirming an email
