Great service!
July 19, 2020

HealthyWage is an amazing service! I bet that I would lose 100 pounds in 11 months, and I did it! I paid in a total of $2,000 over the 11 months, and won $5,000, so profited $3,000. I got paid right away with no issues. HealthyWage gave me that spark to get started, and provided structure/urgency to keep me going throughout. I highly recommend this to anyone who's had trouble sticking to a weight loss plan. When there's money on the line, you're definitely more likely to get it done!

Healthywage helped me get on the path to actually being healthy after years of my weight creeping up to the point where I was morbidly obese. I was able to win over $2000 by committing to lose 75 pounds in 8 months, although I was able to lose 100 during that time period. Healthywage kept me accountable when I did not want to share with others at the start of my weight loss journey, and it was exciting to think about how I would use my winnings at it actually became realistic towards the end. It paid out exactly how they say it would and the verification process was easy. There isn't anything bad I can say about being in much healthier place in life and having more money because of that decision.

HealthyWage is a legitimate company that allows you to pick a weight loss goal, set a time frame in which to lose weight, and set a monetary prize (based on length of time and how much you want to put in). I loved the flexibility and how everything was told to me up front - I knew exactly what I had to do to win the bet against myself. I won $1,511 for losing 45 pounds. I would recommend this to anyone and can't wait to set another goal to keep my weight loss journey going!

Questionable ethics
February 19, 2021

I signed up for HealthyWage and participated in at least a dozen challenges along the way. I was forced to videotape myself in front of a full-length mirror, go into the next room where I had a hard surface and could videotape myself on the scale and then proceed back into the room with the mirror since all of the rooms in my house with a full length mirror include carpeting and I live alone. This proved to be no issue for every single challenge that I've participated in, however, when it came time for the final way in (with the largest payback), they refused to accept my video because of the method in which I had to record myself. I'm out almost $1,600 because they decided that the method I had followed all along was suddenly "suspicious". If you ask me, their behavior is what is suspicious. I would absolutely not recommend this company to anyone.

With over $13 million paid out in 2020 alone, our team reviews and certifies new winners everyday. We take our winner verification process very seriously and fortunately, the percentage of participants we've had to ask to resubmit a second weigh-out verification to prove their weight loss is legit is extremely small (less than 1%). We understand the majority of what we may come across in a video may be unintentional, such as grabbing onto a chair for balance, which is why we do provide our members the opportunity to resubmit to still be eligible to win their challenge. We do not force anyone to do anything. We recommend participants submit their verified weight through our app as it's a quick and easy process that involves them submitting a 30-second video of stepping on and off the scale to confirm their weight.

This participant's most recent video verification was different from previous ones submitted and displayed suspicious practices. After our verifier team confirmed it was a non-compliant verification, we immediately contacted her. We have also provided images of the differences in her verification videos with an explanation of why this most recent one was flagged. To allow her the opportunity to still win her prize, we requested a second verification to prove her weight loss and even gave her an extension to do so. She has refused to submit a second verification and therefore we cannot confirm her win.

HealthyWage rocks!
November 3, 2019

I just finished a HealthyWage challenge and have $2600 in my pocket for doing what I needed to do for myself... get healthy! Nothing like getting paid for it.

The app was especially nice. It was motivating to log my weight weekly and be able to scroll through and see how far I'd come. And now I have extra money to buy clothes to fit my body that is 71 pounds lighter :)

I lost 30 pounds and wagered $600. My prize was $1452 and HealthyWage transferred the money into my PayPal account within 2 days. I highly recommend everyone I know to HealthyWage who wants to lose weight and is serious. Beware though, once you click accept, there is no turning back and you still have to pay- that's what I liked most about HealthyWage. You are financially committed unless you have a medical reason.

I like HealthyWage! It was so easy! The app made it even better. All I had to do was choose how much I wanted to lose, the time frame to lose it and how much I would wager each month. After putting in additional information, my prize was calculated. I did my verified weigh in and the weight loss journey began. This is a self-reliant, incentive program. I did not feel any pressure to spend money on any meal plans, trainers, or exercise program. I'm not sure if HealthyWage offers any of those things. I was free to lose the weight my way! I had full control! I lost 65 pounds in 12 months and won $1,285. I loved putting my weight into the app every week and seeing the progress I was making. If anyone is considering making a healthy wager, do it! It will be worth it! You have to put in the work and make it happen though!

HW gave me my life back
June 9, 2022

I was struggling to lose weight on my own. I kept regaining and losing the same 10 lbs over and over and over. I was researching gastric bypass and came upon a HealthyWage ad. I was skeptical, but I figured I'd give it a shot--maybe having a set deadline and a cash prize might be better motivation for me. It absolutely was. I beat my wager. I've lost 87 lbs in 10 months and have changed my relationship with food entirely. Thanks, HW!

I had a great experience with Healthy Wage. The possibility of winning a large amount of money for losing weight was very motivating for me. The HW support staff is great to work with. I did two large challenges and more than a dozen smaller jackpot challenges and since I met the goals, HW paid out for every challenge that I participated in. This is a very legit business. I'm thrilled to have found HW and would highly recommend HW to anyone planning to lose weight.

My experience with HealthyWage was outstanding! It helped me with that extra motivation I needed. I lost 103 pounds on my bet and won $1030! I have lost 120 lbs total! I love the app and all of the data you are given to help you keep track of your weight loss, pounds to go, etc. I also love that you can connect with other users for support! I highly recommend betting on yourself! I won both financially, physically, and emotionally!
