HealthyWage alternatives for UK users (2026)
HealthyWage runs weight-loss challenges with cash prizes: individual challenges where you set your own target, and three-month team challenges. Its FAQ lists UK residents as eligible. Here is what we checked on 20 October 2026, and the alternatives worth comparing.
What HealthyWage does
- Individual challenges: you set your own weight-loss goal and choose how much money to put on reaching it.
- Team challenges: teams of five take part in a three-month challenge for cash prizes.
- Weight is verified twice, at the start and at the end of a challenge.
- The FAQ says it is available to residents of the UK, US, Canada and other regions, and that accounts on an instalment plan are charged every month.
- Its home page does not set out entry costs or fees; check the challenge page and terms before joining.

If your employer runs a HealthyWage team challenge, its FAQ says you can usually take part wherever you are. For workplaces and clubs that want a team challenge in the UK, FitBond’s Team Bond judges each person on their own goal and returns their deposit if they meet it.
