I am so happy I came across HealthyWager last year. It was right after the holidays, I was the heaviest I'd ever been, and I was desperate to find motivation that works for me. I am highly motivated by money, so I figured I'd give this a try, and it worked! I met my goal weight (lost 30 lbs) in plenty of time to win my wager. I received my check very quickly and have loved the company and the service. HealthyWage was the catalyst I needed to find a healthier and happier way of life, and I'm now 7 lbs under my original weight loss goal.
Diagnosed with ms and thyroid disease. And wouldn't even give me a break. Making me pay out still! March till October. Better hope you don't get sick while doing this!
Its a nice idea but, once you set it up and pay up, you get zero support / prompts / advice from them. No reminders, no emails. I missed my goal - partly because COVID gave me an excuse to lose momentum and partly because the "goal" was just too distant and abstract to influence my day-to-day decisions without any other support. Thats on me of course. But my rating reflects that it didn't work for me, and if it was really about weight loss (and not just money) there'd be better communications.
I noticed they are also now closed to any new UK registrations - no idea why.
Hi Jamie,
While our main purpose is to facilitate your bet so you can focus on your nutrition and activity, we do provide support through your challenge dashboard. This includes a progress tracker that is updated each time you submit an unverified weigh-in, displaying your challenge timeline of your current weight, where you should be in order to meet your goal, and how much time and weight you have left till your challenge completes. There is also a participant forum where challengers share and gain healthy tips, motivate one another, and can seek advice from our HealthyWage coach, who is there to provide additional support and answer any questions.
In addition, participants in the UK (and all other eligible countries) are able to sign up via our US site at www.healthywage.com.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our support team at info@healthywage.com.
Healthywage is a great tool to help keep you focused on your health goals. I love the fact that I am not told how much to lose or what time frame that I set my own goals and my own bet. This gave me the opportunity to set realistic weight loss expectations and with doing so I have won two wagers and just signed up for a 3rd! Verification is easy, payments received through paypal in a timely manner too. This is a no brainer. Who doesn't love extra money for doing something you are already going to do?! My only regret is that I didn't bet more for my first wager because I was unsure if this was legit but it is most certainly real!
Way to go, Mandie and congratulations on winning 2 HealthyWager challenges (soon to be 3)! Thank you for sharing about your experience. We love hearing how the HealthyWager was a positive and motivating experience in helping you develop healthy habits and sustain a healthy lifestyle.
Nothing like a little competition against yourself to keep you motivated! HealthyWage facilitates a fun way to help you achieve your goal. I lost 60lbs in 6 months and loved every minute of the challenge. I won $709 y'all! If your asking yourself if you really get paid. Yes, yes you do! I highly recommend signing up for a challenge and would pick HealthyWage over their "competitors". More money in your pocket if you hit your goal!
This program helps give you the motivation towards your weight loss goal! I have only been at it for a couple of weeks for the Healthy Wage Challenge. I have signed up for 2 individual challenges so far to reduce my weight by 6% over the next 3 months. You can increase your winning by signing up for 3 month personal challenges, you should lose weight faster in the beginning when eating healthy and exercising several times a week, a win-win! If you sign up via the link below $40 will be added to your winnings.

I just submitted my final weigh out video! I am so glad I did this program! I have been staying on track and super focused because I really didn't want to lose my money and winning extra money was just an added bonus for me. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who needs the extra push!
Thank you for sharing your experience, Chelsea! We're happy to hear it was a motivating and successful experience!
I challenged myself to lose 65 pounds in 8 months. I bet $125 per month, and collected $3,252.38! I was a little hesitant to sign up, because it seemed too good to be true. I encourage anyone considering HealthyWage to give it a try, it could be exactly the motivation you need!
You are worth it! Put some money in now, get it back later! I won $923! They are legit. If you have doubts you can do it, then you dont want it bad enough. This challenge proved to me it's possible if you believe in yourself, and it motivates you to keep believing in yourself on the days that you don't. I highly recommend this program to anyone who needs to get the real them back. And you get to reward yourself on top of that at the end. Just do it!
Congrats, Michelle on your incredible success and accomplishment!
HealthyWage is amazing! I made a bet with myself that I would lose 50lbs in one year. I did it and won $1,053! I was skeptical about it at first, but my winnings are sitting in my bank account right now! I still have some more weight to lose, but I'm so thankful for HealthyWage. They gave me the motivation to start and stick with it. I now have the confidence to keep going. If money motivates you, you definitely need to sign up!

Answer: Hi Eric, That timing is absolutely correct, assuming the Winner Confirmation form has been completed. I see that our support team told you on January 11th that you had not yet filled out that form in order for our review to be finalized. The timeline noted above applies as soon as you complete that. Thanks, Kate@ HealthyWage
Answer: Hi, Michele. Yes, you can participate in another HealthyWager (our individual weight loss challenge completely customized to you with a huge cash prize up to $10,00!), after you complete your first! In fact, many participants like to break up their weight loss goal into a few HealthyWager challenges and have found it effective and motivating for both weight loss and maintaining it. Do know that if you win a HealthyWager and start a new one, your starting weight will be your winning weight from your last HealthyWager win.

Answer: Hi, Dee and that's a great question! While we give you the flexibility to choose how you want to lose the weight, we do provide support through our Facebook group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/healthywageofficial), email and our participant dashboard that gives challengers access to our HealthyWage Coach. Our email support includes healthy tips and guidance for nutrition and exercise while our participant dashboard allows you to chat with fellow challengers and share tips, support, and encouragement!
Answer: Hi, Maria. The earliest you can weigh-out for the challenge is 2 weeks prior to your end date, even if you have met your goal early. If you meet your goal early, you'll just need to maintain or continue losing (as appropriate) until that weigh-out window opens. We want to encourage weight loss and weight management over time. Our goal is to help you get the weight off and keep it off, develop new habits, and a new lifestyle over the course of your challenge.
