Just invite your friends and family to play and tell them the Challenge name so they know which Fast Track Challenge to enter.
Must be at least 18 years of age to join and participate.
How does it work?
The Free Wellness Challenge is all about participants striving to lose 4% of their body weight. Every participant who hits the 4% weight loss goal, will equally split the $4,000 prize pot funded by HealthyWage.
In addition, HealthyWage is adding a separate $1,000 prize for participants to equally split who (a) hit the 4% weight loss goal, and (b) correctly guess this year's winning Super Bowl team. HealthyWage will be emailing all participants on February 9, 2023 with a link to submit their selection. Participants must submit their predicted winning Super Bowl team no later than 9:00 AM PT on February 12, 2023 in order to be eligible for the $1,000 prize.
How does the pot get split?
The $4,000 prize pot funded by HealthyWage is evenly split amongst winners.
How much does it cost?
$0 -- it's completely free to join and participate in! So, you have nothing to lose...except the weight!
How do you help me stay on track during the 40-day contest?
The Fast Track Challenge is based on community support and motivation, which provides accountability and success. To make it lots of fun, we provide you with tips and tricks to help you stay on track.
Can I participate if I am located outside of the U.S?
HealthyWage is available to residents of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Latin America (including Mexico), Australia, and most of Europe and Asia. If you are participating through an employer, such as Halliburton, you are generally allowed to participate regardless of your location in the world. Unless you are participating through your employer, you may not participate if you are a resident of North Korea, Iran, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Burma, Yemen, Afghanistan, Libya and Sudan.
Is there a deadline for registering and weighing-in at the beginning of the contest?
Yes. The last day to join and submit your starting weight is exactly one week (7 days) from the challenge start date.
Can I participate in more than one challenge at once?
Absolutely. You can participate in up to 10 challenges at once! So double-up, even triple-up to maximize your winnings for the same weight loss!
Do I need to have my weight verified?
Yes—twice: once at the beginning of the challenge and once at the end.
NOTE - Final weigh-in verifications must be measured by 11:50 PM PT on the last day of your challenge.
How do I get my weight verified?
It's super easy -- you have two options:
- Download our mobile app (after you register) and follow the simple, on-screen instructions to let one of our referees remotely witness your weigh-in [takes about two minutes];
OR - Print the "Verify Me!" form and have a qualified witness sign the form after watching you step on the scale -- any doctor, nurse, health club staff member or WW employee is qualified to be a witness. Then take a photo of the signed form and upload it to your HealthyWage account [you need about 10 seconds of your witness's time].
Do you have any rules to prevent excessive, unhealthy weight loss?
Yes. In order to encourage healthy weight loss, we only count weight loss up to 16.6% per person. Any individual weight loss beyond 16.59% does not count for the challenge. Note: it is OKAY to lose more than 16.6% (you won't be disqualified), but any extra weight you lose above 16.6% will not be counted.
Can I participate if I am pregnant?
No. But you can sign up if you've recently had your baby, if your doctor says it's okay.
What if I get pregnant?
Contact our support team at info@healthywage.com and let them know.
Can I participate if I am on weight loss pills or if I have had or am planning to have bariatric surgery?
Only with advanced doctor approval. Contact us to discuss this before signing up.
Will others see my weight information?
No. No one else will see your actual weight. Only your percentage weight loss will be visible to other users.
How do I get paid?
