Wellcoin is being billed as the world’s first virtual health currency. Wellcoin encourages health by rewarding members who report maintaining a healthy lifestyle with consumer-based benefits.
According to an article on MedCity News:

When using Wellcoin, members report healthy activities that then increase their compensation. It isn’t just an imaginary way of keeping track of progress, members have access to an extensive online marketplace stocked with goods and services from companies like Skechers, DICK’S Sporting Goods, Pure Barre, Whole Foods Market and a lot of other fitness partners and vendors, according to PR Newswire.
The website and app are free, and the ways members can earn Wellcoins vary. For example, being active, sleeping at least seven hours a night, drinking or eating something healthy – these are all ways to earn points. Syncing up with fitness monitoring wearables also helps to increase a member’s credibility when earning points, as well as using other fitness or diet-related apps.
