CARROT Wellness
CARROT is a free app that rewards users financially for walking and achieving individualized activity goals. Users can earn virtual currencies by walking, which can be used to play games, compete in challenges, bid on auctions, and earn rewards such as digital gift cards. The app also includes gamified features such as the "CARROT Survivor" competition, weekly fantasy football contests, and special prizes that can be unlocked by achieving personal goal streaks. CARROT offers personalized activity goals based on each user's activity history, which are updated daily using Apple HealthKit. The app also has an Apple Watch feature for convenient monitoring of daily activity progress and uses iBeacon technology to earn bonus reward points for participating in community health programs and visiting participating businesses. The app is fully inclusive and includes a feature for manual wheelchair users to be rewarded for their "pushes". All users earn reward points for each step they take, and premium members can earn CARROTcoins for achieving personalized activity goals. CARROT does not require the purchase of a wearable tracker and all data and rewards are stored exclusively on the user's phone. Employers can offer CARROT rewards to their employees through the CARROT Health & Wellness program, which provides exclusive company-sponsored rewards for meeting daily activity goals. The app offers multiple sign-in options, including phone number, Facebook, and anonymous login. Location-based rewards and bonus reward points are also available, but users must enable location services. CARROT is easy to use, convenient, personalized, and free, making it a top choice for fitness rewards.
