How It Works

Three Steps.
Zero Excuses.

From challenge to payout in the time it takes to lace up your shoes.

01

Challenge

Pick a friend. Choose your metric: steps, distance, pace, sleep, or overall health score. Set the stakes. Send the challenge. They have 24 hours to accept or walk away.

02

Compete

Your wearable tracks everything in real time. No manual entry. No honor system. Anti-cheat algorithms filter out suspicious data. Every step is verified, every mile is earned.

03

Collect

When the challenge ends, the winner's payout hits their Harthos wallet automatically. Withdraw to your bank or roll it into the next challenge. The choice is yours.

Your Fitness Tracker Was Missing One Thing. Consequences.

When your money is on the line, you don't hit snooze. You don't skip the run. You don't settle for second place.

Platform

Built For Real Competition.

Real-Time Tracking

Live leaderboards sync with Apple HealthKit and Google Health Connect. Watch your competitor's progress in real time. No hiding, no surprises until the finish line.

Multi-Metric Competitions

Steps, distance, pace, sleep quality, and composite health scores. Challenge across one metric or combine them for a true all-around fitness showdown.

1v1 and Group Modes

Head-to-head duels or group competitions with up to 20 players. Different stake structures for different formats. More players, higher stakes, bigger payouts.

Anti-Cheat Engine

Proprietary algorithms filter out treadmill desk noise, car-generated steps, and manual data entry. Only real physical activity counts. Every challenge is fair.

Instant Payouts

Powered by Stripe. Deposit to your Harthos wallet, compete, and withdraw winnings to your bank. Platform fees are transparent: 3% for 1v1, 5% for groups. A portion goes to charity.

Skill-Based Classification

Harthos competitions are classified as skill-based contests, not gambling. Legal opinion provided by gaming law specialists. Compliant with state regulations and App Store guidelines.

The Science

Loss Aversion Is The Most Powerful Motivator In Behavioral Science.

Peer-reviewed research from the University of Pennsylvania demonstrated that financial accountability dramatically increases fitness follow-through. Participants with money on the line were significantly more likely to hit their goals than those using tracking alone.

Harthos isn't built on a theory. It's built on a proven behavioral mechanism, packaged into a product people actually want to use.

"Financial incentives leveraging loss aversion produced sustained physical activity increases compared to control groups receiving only feedback."
Milne et al., Annals of Internal Medicine, 2016
