HealthyWage has changed my life! I’ve tried anything and everything in the last 30 years to maintain my weight and this is the only thing that allowed me to feel fulfilled and motivated to lose weight I needed. I can’t thank you enough for allowing me to have a healthier lifestyle !!!!

I am a very competitive person -- especially with myself -- and knowing I have a "goal" motivates me. I didn't quite make it on the first challenge that I did, but I did succeed on the second one. I am now in a Step Challenge and I really like it. The app is also super simple to use. Overall, it has been a very good experience for me.

Look, I need to lose weight anyway, and why not get paid to do it? Having money on the line for me was enough motivation to stick to my diet and actually lose the weight I'd been postponing since the pandemic. After my first challenge, I did another one right after and lost even more. I'm taking a break right now, but will be back soon to continue to lose weight. It's a win-win for me.

My experience with HealthyWage was wonderful. I can't wait to do it again.

HealthyWager was a great motivation for me to hit my weight loss goals. I managed to hit my target and was paid promptly. The process was super easy and painless (besides all the working out).

I didn't succeed at first. I did well but, didn't quite make it. Healthy Wage gave me a second chance to make it right. It really feels good when you do make it! They gave tips along the way which was helpful too!

I'm super competitive and this was a great way to lose the weight I gained during my pregnancy. I lost all the weight reaching my goal 9 months after I gave birth. It kept me motivated. It helped me realize, it's not all or nothing and that every good decision builds on the last to see clear results. I bet $600 and won just over $950. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to lose weight and stay on track!

Healthy Wage is okay, I like the idea but the amount of money they keep is very high, I ended up winning like $4.50 or something. Ultimately the goal is to keep yourself accountable, but the way they advertise themselves makes you think you will be getting more money, but in the end they take such a massive chunk of it we are left with hardly anything.

My experience with HealthyWage was shocking and exciting. The thought of winning money had me motivated, who don’t want free money. So I started eating right and exercising and started losing. The thing I didn’t like is that I won $2/$3 dollars. That was the upsetting part. All the work I put into this to win barely nothing. But at the end of the day I won my healthy body back and I thank you Healthy Wage.

I would recommend HW to anyone who is struggling with weight and needs a great motivation tool. I made a bet to lose 70lbs in 9 months and I did and they paid me very promptly and the entire process was a positive experience.

Reply from HealthyWage
This is a great concept. However, I did lose the weight plus some on a free challenge but only won a couple of dollars. I know it was free and all but maybe not offer a free challenge if payout is that low. I was super excited about winning and of course losing the weight but then at the end felt like it was a complete joke. Anyways, a couple of years ago I signed up for a step challenge and shortly after starting I got hit with Covid. I still had to pay for the challenge even though I knew I wasn't going to make it and out of my control. There should be a way to pause a challenge for reasons like this. Maybe have you still pay but put it towards another challenge once you're ready. I still have yet to try any more challenges since my first two weren't ideal.

I was recently a part of a weight lost contest through HealthyWage and was very impressed with the whole process, from signing up for the program, to the tracking system of my weight loss and then receiving of my winnings. The motivation you receive to lose weight in a healthy way was Awesome. Love this program!!!

I love the steps challenges. They motivate me to get up and move more throughout the day. I also loved how easy the AP was to access and navigate to see my progress. In addition, at the top of the screen it tells you where you are at with your progress.

Healthywage was one of the best companies i have dealt with . They have so much support and tips to help you along the way

Reply from HealthyWage
I'm surprised at the negative reviews. Healthywage was one of the best experiences I have ever had in my life. It literally was a life-transforming experience for me. I loved the app. I used it to keep track of my transformation and to get advice/motivation from other competitors. Was it easy? OF COURSE NOT! I did the competition throughout the holidays, which made it even harder. No one from Healthywage ever claimed it would be easy! They were there to support me in many ways throughout the competition. I won about $1200 (approximately $700 above what I paid). When I logged my final weight, not one person questioned it. I received a check within 6 days!!!

Very bad service. You cannot delete account if you want to unless you pay them. Non flexible. Don't Waste your money on this app.

Reply from HealthyWage
Zero transparency. You are better off putting that money in with a group of friends and starting ur own pool.
They will charge u and when it’s time to collect the check it’s so measly even after you hit all milestones and goals that you could have just burned the money in the first place. Terrible company .. no ethic

I made a video of me weighing myself and immediately contacted them. I wanted to get approval first before signing the binding contract. They refused, saying they wanted my credit card info first and to sign the no refund contract before approving me. They claim they've paid out so much money but not how much they have taken in. Why are they hiding this? Also, they show you a total of what you can win. Sneaky how that total includes what you paid in. Win back what you paid? The actual winning amount is in smaller print. In my case the "actual" winning amount was less than half of what I would have paid in. They also have sucker group bets, which is way too risky to depend on others to lose weight with you. Not worth it and way too risky. 6-28-24 They responded 4 months later with pretty much an ad. It's like they didn't even read my review. As I stated before, YOU PAY FIRST. It's non refundable. So, if you have an issue after you pay, ie. they don't approve your video, you're screwed! They have and keep your money. I stand by my review. You've been warned.

I started out doing some challenges and everything seemed ok. I was getting paid out for step challenges and some short weight challenges. So I went for a personal 12 month challenge with a fairly substantial outlay. And this is where they get you. Prepare to be arbitrarily rejected despite having verified weigh-ins for similar weights in short challenges within and after your main challenge. Prepare to do an extensive review system that will be rejected for no reason. There is nothing worse than going through an enormous effort, hitting the goal, and this company just saying no and keeping your money. They might hide behind the defence of "look how much we have paid out" but the accusation isn't that they are ripping everyone off, it's that they just reject a certain percentage and see how hard you will fight to prove them wrong. Except you can't because they don't have a system where you can visit a verification centre of some sort.i categorically hit my goal but they kept my money
In addition there is no transparency in the shorter challenges. There should be an email at the end of the challenge showing how they arrived at the payouts but they just end and you get what you get. When you try to calculate yourself it seems like they skim a bit extra off the top, more than the stated 25%.
In short they are quite clever at seeming above board but their methods are very questionable.
