Bank transfers, gift vouchers, donations to associations
In order to to encourage movement, and participate in mental well-being, the founders of Macadam have imagined several hyperplayful and addictive systems >. The fact of synchronizing the number of our steps per day is already enough to create “corners”. From 15 euros, the application already offers a bank transfer. In addition to these steps, the physical challenges suggested by the app: complete 9,000 steps, or do them between 12 p.m. and 2 p.m., or before 9 a.m. or on Sunday. Don't worry, the challenges are renewed. So many bonuses that earn points convertible into cash, or in reductions at partner brands. The amounts collected can also be reinvested in associative projects.
