The Power of Financial Incentives
It's really quite simple, money motivates! Leading academic research shows that money enhances weight loss success, making dieters significantly more likely to lose weight. HealthyWage uses cash-based challenges designed to help end procrastination, encourage perseverance, and harness the power of your desire to avoid losing your wager.
HealthyWage makes money from corporate and government clients who are interested in creative solutions to weight loss. In addition, although financial incentives are great weight loss tools, people sometimes lose the weight loss bet.
The question is: will HealthyWage make money from you, or will you make money from HealthyWage?
"Cortney and her family have participated in two $10,000 Team Challenges and have won second and third place respectively (that's $8,000)! Team accountability has helped her a great deal with her success and brought her family closer than ever! Not to mention the big prize just before the holidays!"
"Randall was turning 30 when he was diagnosed with high blood pressure and told to make a change in his life. He heard about the $10,000 Team Challenge from his employer and decided to participate in an individual challenge as well. He went on to lose 55lbs and won $1,100!"
"Briana's weight yo-yo'd her whole life. She knew HealthyWage would be a great fit with her competitive nature, so she signed up for a HealthyWager. Briana lost her goal of 25 pounds within the first two months, keeping it off ever since! Her $450 winnings are going to a new wedding dress!"
