Get Paid to Workout: How to Earn Rewards for Exercising (2026 Guide for Running, Gym, & Strength Training)

At Receipts.xyz (Receipts), we believe that if you are putting in the effort to train, you deserve to be recognized for it. While many "move-to-earn" apps focus solely on daily step counts, they often overlook the dedication required for focused training sessions. Whether you are a runner pushing your pace, a cyclist climbing hills, or a yogi improving your practice, your exertion matters. That is why we built the first fitness rewards platform that monetizes your Intensity Minutes—rewarding you based on elevated heart rate rather than just step count. So you can transform your workouts & training into real rewards, and actually get paid for exercising and being healthy.


How Receipts.xyz Pays You to Workout

Our app connects directly to wearable devices and fitness trackers. Receipts.xyz (Receipts) integrates seamlessly with Apple Watch, Garmin, COROS, WHOOP, and Oura, as well as hundreds of other fitness apps through Apple Health. Instead of relying on step count, we validate your effort through heart rate intensity. When your heart rate enters Zone 2 or above, our system recognizes this as "qualifying work" and you can earn points & perks for minutes of elevated heart rate during workouts. This "Heart Rate First" approach ensures inclusivity; whether you are surfing, boxing, playing pickleball, lifting weights, or practicing yoga, you are rewarded for your physiological effort across any activity.

Because our community is logging verified, high-quality workouts, we are able to partner with premium brands that value health and longevity. Our partners understand that a Receipts.xyz user is deeply committed to their well-being, allowing us to offer exclusive perks that go beyond standard rewards. We feature benefits from industry leaders like Hyperice for recovery, GOREWEAR for endurance, and Freaks of Nature for outdoor performance. Our rewards marketplace also supports your holistic health with partners like Function Health and fuel from Cadence. For our New York City athletes, you can even recover post-training at Bathhouse locations throughout the city.
