Rip off
December 12, 2022

You do all they ask but you still lose all your money. It is not worth the stress and the waste of money. They find anything wrong with your finally weigh in and it just not there. Basically they rip off the ones that have small wagers to pay out the big ones to make themselves look good.
The stress form the final weigh in causer to develop an ulcer. Better off keeping your money.

Hi, Shannon. HealthyWage is not a rip off and in fact, has paid out over $6.3M to winners who have lost over 445,500 pounds in 2022 so far (and still counting!). While HealthyWage doesn't request second weigh-out verifications often, there are however, instances like yours where the weigh-out video did not follow our guidelines clearly specified in our FAQs, Rules, and in the step-by-step weigh-out video you conducted.

Our team has and is still working with you to give you an opportunity to win your challenge, as we've stated in our email correspondence with you. You are more than welcomed to comply with our request for a second verification through December 18,2022, which would give the opportunity to win your challenge and cash prize! Please reply to our email sent by our participant support for any questions and/or to move forward with your verification to confirm your challenge win. For more information on submitting verified weigh-ins with HealthyWage, please check out our Weigh-In Rules at https://www.healthywage.com/challenges/verified-weigh-in-rules.

I discovered healthywage on social media. I wasn't sure if it was legit. I browsed a few sites. I came across the video on Good Morning America. I was willing to give it a try! I set the original bet for 6 months. I experienced some life changes, I ended up adding more time. Healthywage helped keep me focused and motived to lose weight. I finished my wager- even in a pandemic! Wahoo I'm excited to start a new challenge! I'll be at PITBULL concert with my cash!

Horrible business
May 25, 2022

They don't have anyone you can talk to on the phone with an issue. They do everything they can to keep you from winning the money and adjust if you've won in the past (although the conveniently don't check beforehand, only after you paid your money in). Avoid them and use another company!

Hi, Tara. Our customer support is available via both email and phone. We are disappointed to hear your frustration in your prize, as we are extremely transparent in our FAQs and Rules regarding our “Yo-Yo Rule,” and wish that we had been contacted with any questions or concerns prior to your creation of a new account with a new email address and name. You previously found success with HealthyWage winning a prize of $1,386.16 for losing an impressive 30 pounds in 6 months under your original account. Our successful participants who document a weight gain since their previous HealthyWager win that register under the same email address, as our FAQs and Rules state, are quoted the correct prize prior to signing up as it is a separate prize structure. Our mission is to provide motivation and accountability in helping our participants in their journey, in addition to encouraging healthy habits and weight maintenance.

HealthyWage appears at first glance to be a good thing. But, take my warning...if you have a problem, you are going to be taken to the cleaners without getting your laundry done.

HealthyWage has helped thousands of individuals achieve their personal health and wellness goals, including this reviewer who previously won a cash prize of over $863 with us in July of 2022. This reviewer registered for a new challenge in February 2023 using his previous email, and then signed up for another challenge moments later using a typo'd email address. Our Participant Support reached out and notified him of his typo'd registration, and that the challenge was being cancelled and refunded (as our participants may only hold one account). The Participant Support also confirmed the registration under his primary/correct email address would remain unchanged and that he will still be eligible to win his prize. We didn't receive any additional communication from this individual nor requests to cancel his active challenge, which is why we're confused as to why he's making false allegations and claims against our company.

Customer Support from Amanda
April 1, 2020
Updated review

I initially wrote that they don't care about their users and genuinely believed it until I heard from Amanda Stewart. Due to loss of income with the COVID-19 pandemic, I was attempting to get out of a bet where I paid $100 a month (with 4 months to go). Obviously, there is a lot of fear surrounding the uncertainty of these times. I worried about how I would care for my family, pay rent, bills, etc.

When Amanda reached out to me, I felt like she was taking the time to consider my individual position. I really appreciate the time that she took to work with me on finding a solution. I hope that other users are able to find in her, what I didn't find in Joe (Healthy Wage Participant Support).

Doesn't Actually Care About Users
March 24, 2020
Previous review

I've been attempting to cancel my bet of $100 a month due to loss of income with regards to COVID-19. I had every intention to restart it and I'm committed to my goal of living a healthy lifestyle. It's really disappointing to feel like they don't actually care about the circumstances of their users during this pandemic.

When you don't have income coming in, $100 is a lot of money on the line. I made the bet because I believed in their idea and thought it was a great company but I can't recommend it since they aren't considerate of their users who are in unfortunate circumstances.

I recommend HealthyWage to anyone who wants to lose weight. I signed up for HealthyWage thinking it would be a great way to help stay on track since I'd have a calendar goal and I found it to be a great incentive to keep working hard. I loved that I could set the amount that I wanted to pay each month and set my weight loss goal. I doubled my investment and more importantly, lost 55 pounds and am much healthier!

I did it!
November 17, 2021

I was looking to lose 100 pounds in a year.
I lost the first 50 pounds pretty easily on my own but needed a little extra motivation to lose the last 50 pounds. Healthy Wage was that motivation. I met my goal November 6th and received my payout November 9th (via PayPal). I am so thankful I found Healthy Wage!

Too Legit to Quit!
October 10, 2018

I love Healthy Wage because you are able to use the online calculator to set your own goal weight, timeline, and bet amount. I did an individual challenge, so I cannot vouch for any team-based ones, BUT I can confirm 100% that they are legit as I received prompt payment after submitting my weight verification video. If I ever decide to lose more weight, I would definitely try Healthy Wage at another time! Using my own money as leverage really helped me to push myself to not "lose out" on those funds and gain back a total of $2451!

I was skeptical when I found out about healthy wage but this is 110% real! You bet on yourself, you customize everything to how much you want to lose, in how long of time frame and how much you want to bet on yourself. I lost 30 lbs with healthy wage and won $1200. I am now in my second challenge trying to lose 35lbs in 6 months. If you need that motivation to get going this is definitely it! So glad that I was introduced to healthy wage! The picture is 1 year apart. In total I have lost 50lbs!

It was a wonderful experience, I did the healthywage challenge I lost 67 lb and won 1721$ I bet 45$ for a year so I invest 540 total. So the net winnings were 1181 and I became slim again so It was really a good deal for me! They paid me in less than a week with PayPal. The motivation to win the extra money made me really commit to it. So it was really worth it.
If you sign in with my referral link they will add 40$ to your prize, then you can add me as friend if you want too.

Brilliant for people like me who are motivated to do things by either making money from it, or avoiding spending/losing money. I think most people would benefit from this 'wager', if forced to make it! The company pays out the winnings - I've done my research and it's not a scam, so the best thing to do is just sign up, make a realistic gamble for what you can do (FYI 1lb/week loss is fairly easy for almost anyone), and then get it done!
Another fantastic part of the game - once you sign up, you can use your link to refer people, and they get an extra $40 boost added to their prize! Another motivation to win money and lose weight!

So far, I'm really loving Healthywage. While I work on my longer individual bet, I've been competing in team challenges and jackpots. Some challenges are harder (lose 16.6%), and some are easier (pick your own, track your steps, or 6% weight loss). If you are interested in joining you can get $40 added to your prize if you join through my referral link by March 9th using this link-(you will not get the $40 if you don't join by referral) http://www.healthywage.com/referral/healthywager/name-your-own-prize/*******0057

Went from 217 pounds to my goal of 192 pounds. Won my challenge Aug 1st. App said will hear back progress review no later than August 7th. It is now August 8th. Still have not heard back

*****UPDATE*******

Be sure to always check your spam mail because it turns out that they sent me an email on August 2 and they needed a second review because I was near a towel rack apparently people can cheat using a towel rack by holding up their weight I did not realize this as I have not even thought of anything like that or cheating so in the email they wanted me to verify again but I did not see the email until August 9. Now it is August 10 HealthyWage squared everything away I verified my video to prove my truthfulness and transferred my winnings to PayPal. What a great experience Thankyou HealthyWage!

Hi, Isela and congratulations on winning your HealthyWager challenge! Our customer support team confirmed they emailed you on August 2nd (one day after you submitted your weigh-out) to request additional information needed for your win, and then again on August 9th after you first reached out to them on August 8th. Per your email correspondence, it showed that our initial email went to your spam folder, which is why you didn't see it. Please know we always reply within 7 days of submitting your weigh-out video to either confirm your win and/or request additional information. We always encourage our participants to reach out to our super helpful customer support team at info@healthywage.com if they have questions about anything, including weight verifications or winner certification. Plus, you can find more information about submitting your verified weigh-ins at www.healthywage.com/rules/video-verified-weigh-in-rules. Congratulations again!

You might find yourself asking: Is it legit?

As legit as the $2,216 they deposited into my account. As legit as the 52lbs I lost.

Yes, it IS legit and fantastic!

If you find yourself struggling and needing an extra incentive, extra motivation, that extra push- SIGN UP! You won't regret it.

Best choice i ever made
November 16, 2019

This company is a life changer! I was overweight, depressed, and my life wasnt going anywhere but downhill. Then a friend of mine reccomended HealthyWage, and I figured I'd give it a try. I lost 70lbs in 6 months and I won $1800! This company is 100% legitimate and amazing, and I can honestly say this is the BEST choice I've ever made for myself in my weight loss journey. I feel so much more alive, and I appreciate life so much more now that I'm healthy. I will definitely be doing more wagers in the future! It's not just about the weight you lose, but the life you gain!

I participated in the HealthyWage challenge personal bet in 2018. I challenged myself to lose 55 pounds. I bet $100 per month to lose 55lbs in 7 months. It was the best decision I ever made. Not only did I lose the weight, I won $2,234! Money was a huge motivator for me. I couldn't let myself lose and I didn't. I enjoyed receiving fitness tips and motivation from other participants and tracked my progress on the app. I remained consistent with my dieting and workouts. HealthyWage is the best motivation tool ever!

HealthyWage is a great program. You get to bet whatever amount you want on yourself. You also choose how you lose the weight.
I would recommend this program.
