Paceline: Rewards for Exercise Hack 3.65.0 + Redeem Codes

I've been a Paceline user for a little more than a year, and I love it. I think anything that promotes physical and financial health is phenomenal, but to also be rewarded for doing activities I already enjoy doing is a tremendous bonus. There aren't any gimmicks or gotcha's. It's a very simple premise, and it's completely free to use. I like how I can get discounts on things I'm already buying anyway, and I think it's cool to discover new brands every single week that I might be interested in. Additionally, the Paceline credit card is my new go-to. I get 5% cash back on things like grocery stores and gym memberships just by working out, and I still get 3% cashback year-round on everything else; that's far better than any other credit card that I have. As someone who cares about the intrinsic value of being healthy, using Paceline to get additional rewards for doing things I already personally care about is amazing.

50 minutes of activity a day for 1,000 days is my goal and I am at more than 500 already! The rewards are like icing on a cake but what gives me joy is seeing my ring close each day and being at the top of the list before my friends who are also striving for perfect days. When the credit card came out, I started earning 3% on everything and 5% at grocery and drug stores. I even get 5% back on my gym membership and for athletic wear - which is all I’ve been wearing since Covid. It has replaced my Amex card for everyday purchases. But most of all, even when I’m stressed or tired, wanting to hit my 50 minutes gets me out the door for a walk or bike ride or to the gym. That’s paid off both physically and mentally. Thank you Paceline for the motivation when I need it the most.

These guys launched a credit card last year and have completely shut it down leaving many high and dry after promoting a free Apple Watch through weekly credits. Users aren’t getting reimbursed for remaining credits which is morally wrong. What’s more hilarious is that they are already touting a new card to be launched soon. My question is why couldn’t they just move people over to the new card when it launched? My guess is they are in financial straits and dumping their credit card program without a care for their customers or the companies reputation. This is beyond ridiculous why would a company choose to burn its users and in turn itself.

Update: seems like the company was either unclear with their initial statement or relented to customer complaints. They are now reimbursing remaining credits. It’s still not a great situation overall but at least their doing the right thing with regards to the Apple Watch credits.

A friend has sent me a link to the app, and the challenge started at the set up… I was not able to do my set up since my email was already in use(not possible at all), so I have to open a ticket to have my usei solved witching 3 days. After that all was good, I like the challenge I manage to close my week and became eligible for my my first reward… I order to do that the app states that I should link a card… I was a little resistant but decide to do and that was when I was shocked the app didn’t want my card number, it want my account credentials, with my credentials anyone can, change my address, request additional cards, change my password, change my safety call back number, see all my personal information and on my case access my bank account since it is all linked together…I was very frustrated when I found out it was the only option and I also felt misleaded on what is really need to use the app… because at the end of the day… giving my credit card number is not that bad anymore.

After battling mold toxicity (fatigue, insomnia, headaches, weight gain and more) for over a year, I needed something to really get me back on track. Exercise is KEY to getting rid of mold but I was too exhausted to do it consistently. Oddly enough, closing the rings on the Paceline app was a huge inspiration and brought me back to my old self. Even if my body told me I was too tired to work out, the app inspired me to do it and now I’m feeling more and more like me. I also love learning about new health and wellness companies so it’s been fun to try out rewards.

After a few months I tried the card too…and I’m obsessed with seeing cash back on the things I’m already spending money on to get my health back…groceries, constant medical bills and more! Thanks for making me feel like me again, Paceline!

I started using Pacelines regularly about a year ago. It was good for motivation. Had an issue with my older Apple Watch (cracked, dropped it into a lake) and contacted customer service so I wouldn’t lose my streak and they mentioned the credit card offers a new Apple Watch essentially for free as long as I get my minutes in. The $60 yearly fee wasn’t a big deal because you easily make that back in rewards. I’m not a big math guy but between the free Apple Watch, weekly rewards and the cash back that I get from my purchases, it seemed like a no brainer. I’m pretty cheap so you best believe I’ll be getting my minutes in each week. My other credit cards just motivate me to spend money at restaurants and travel, which is how I got out of shape in the first place.

This app is PERFECT for both parties new to fitness and those trying to start a fitness routine. I’ve been on both ends of the coin and more so recently, on the side trying to build a regime again. The PaceLine app with its badges and streaks is super motivating. It ensures I get my workouts in and because I’m working out, I’m eating right. I get rewarded for that TOO with the cash back I receive from making my health and wellness purchases with the PaceLine credit card (food, gym membership, etc!) really a win win! I highly recommend this app to anyone trying to change their lifestyle and get rewarded for it. Also, the credit card is so cool, I always get asked about it when I pull it out at the register!

For an app that boasts about encouraging people to be healthy, the new point system spits in the face of that. Points may only be accrued for a maximum of 24 weeks. The “best” redemptions require a person to hit 300 minutes of exercise per week for 24 consecutive weeks. With a maximum of 50 minutes per day, that is 6/7 days of elevated heart rate training for an excessively consistent period of time. As someone that has trained for health and fitness over the last decade, I can tell you that I have never kept to that kind of schedule and would find it impossible to obtain with that level of regularity.

Rest is important and the fact that this app is implicitly discouraging rest by gamifying the rewards to this extent shows that the developers are out of touch with their product and user base. I get that it’s expensive to offer any meaningful rewards but if you’re going to make a change to a point system like this, at least make it obtainable without being potentially harmful.

Paceline recently updated their app, changing the entire look of rewards and the actually rewards themselves. The new look makes it much harder to see what the rewards are and the new rewards are not as great as they used to be. I prefer to choose the rewards that donate money unless they’re offering Starbucks/Dunkin, etc gift cards, but the only donation they’re offering is Black Lives Matter. I am all for supporting black lives but Black Lives Matter is proven to be not a good foundation to donate to to support black lives. They used to have a tree planting foundation and feed America, both of which I loved to donate to, but now they’ve changed it and I miss the other donation choices. Please bring them back.

I loved using this app and getting rewards for exercising. I used it every week and managed to get a 16 week stream going. Now that I’m pregnant, however, it’s not counting my minutes the same way because I’ve had to modify my workouts and not raise my heart rate as much for as long. I wish there was an option to update my profile and make that modification. I work out four to five times a week for a minimum of 35 minutes. A majority of my workouts do get my heart rate past 130 bpm, but not for an extended amount of time. Most days the app only counts my workouts as 20 minutes if I’m lucky—even though my Fitbit recognizes that I achieved the active minutes. It makes it really hard to make it to the 150 minute goal. I’d have to do multiple workouts a day or longer workouts with harder intensity (not recommended for pregnancy) to make it every week.
