Get paid to get fit!
You read that title right! There are apps that will pay you to lose weight and work out. And with many of us having the New Years’ resolution to lose weight, these apps are easy ways to get us to our goals and have a great side hustle and make money at the same time.
These fitness apps will pay cash by check, direct deposit, or PayPal. And most are as easy as tracking steps (which many of our devices do for us anyway). So why not get paid for walking around and doing things we do anyway? Check out these side hustle apps below and see how you can get paid to lose weight.
1. ACHIEVEMENT
The Achievement app is free, and will allow you to make money via direct deposit or PayPal for tracking:
- Steps
- Meals
- Mediation sessions
- Sleep
- Miles biked
When these events are logged, points are gained (10,000 points=$10). And aside from logging physical activities, more points can be earned by referring others, answering surveys, and connecting fitness apps such as Apple Health. Once points are cashed out, payments are typically given within 3-7 days.
I connected my Apple Health app, and Achievement gave me points for all the physical activities that had been logged by Apple Health over the previous seven days. So, be sure to connect those fitness apps to gain the most points and have your activities automatically logged.
Use my link to sign up, you will get a bonus 475 points when you connect a fitness app or complete an offer. This is a great side hustle that does not require too much attention. So, you can start to make money today!
2. SWEATCOIN
SweatCoin is another easy side hustle app that does not require much attention. And it’s free! They pay users to track steps and other physical activities, watch ads, and refer friends and family. They give Sweatcoins for these activities, which can then be used to buy items or earn cash via PayPal. They pay $5 for every 5 referrals for users in the U.S. and Canada!
Some items cost as little as 10 Sweatcoins. In the SweatCoin app, there are even some free offers such as 90 days of Pandora Premium or fitness apps, and free items (if you pay for shipping).
To make tracking activities easy, I connected my Apple Health app. That way, they can track my steps, and I can earn points without even going into the app.
This is a super easy side hustle. Be sure to sign up for SweatCoin, and start earning your points to get your freebies, and start making money today.
3. HEALTHYWAGE
HealthyWage has an app and website that pays you to lose weight. This is an actual weight loss program. Of all these options, you can make the most money with HealthyWage. Users can make money via check or PayPal for betting on themselves.
They have been featured on many huge media outlets such as Good Morning America and Fox News.
To use HealthyWage, you can set your weight loss goal and wager as little as $5 to lose the weight. If you meet your goal, you will get your money back, plus more! And the more you wager, the more money you can make. It is possible to turn less than $100 into hundreds of dollars!
The amount of money you can earn will depend on your age, height, weight, and other criteria. They have a calculator on their website to show you potential earnings if you use their program.
To ensure that participants tracking their weight loss properly, HealthyWage requires weekly weigh-ins. These can be proven by:
- Using their app
- Video check-ins
- Having a doctor complete the form
HealthyWage will help you stay motivated to lose weight by sending reminders through the app. They have paid out loads of money already. So, if you want a great option to lose weight, stay motivated, and make money, be sure to check out HealthyWage.
4. WALGREENS HEALTH GOALS
Many people don’t realize that Walgreens will pay you Walgreens Cash for doing physical activities. The free Walgreens Health Goals program is in the Walgreens app, and they will reward you for connecting your device, such as Apple Health, and completing health challenges.
The payout is up to $1/month for completing weekly health challenges, and $2/month bonus for completing all four challenges in a month. While this side hustle won’t make you rich, it can add some money to your Walgreens app, so you can save money at the store.
So, if you are someone that shops at Walgreens, be sure to look into this one. It’s a passive way to get a little extra money. Why not get paid for things we already do?
Pick a side hustle and make money!
Whether you want to lose weight or just maintain a healthy lifestyle, these side hustle apps are a great way to meet your goals. Not only can you make money and meet your financial goals, but you can stay fit, exercise, and boost your health and energy while doing it.
Good luck on your fitness journey, and If you want to make more money, be sure to check out my other side hustle ideas.
