Goyo app partners with Keells to reward users

-

Recognized as Sri Lanka’s trendiest fitness app and wearable, the Goyo app recently announced its latest rewards initiative themed ‘Fresh Blaze’, partnering the popular supermarke­t Keells and offering 100 fresh food vouchers, gaining faster traction in rewarding the users to live healthy.

Goyo’s latest scheme inspires users to complete 300 active minutes (i.e. 22 minutes daily) within 14 days of accepting the challenge. The time frame to complete this simple yet extremely rewarding task was set during November 8 to 30.

Unlike other fitness apps, the Goyo app aims to clearly differenti­ate itself by promoting active minutes. This measuremen­t tells users if they are getting the right kind of activity to reduce their health risks and move towards building fitness.

Active minutes is also used not simply to record the number of steps incurred through regular walking but targeted activity such as a brisk walk, engage in a cardio workout or running.

Stepping up its rewards for healthy lifestyle choices, Goyo has partnered up with the Keells supermarke­ts to offer 100 vouchers with each presenting a reward of Rs.2,000, redeemable on fresh food produce.

Both Goyo and Keells supermarke­ts have understood the importance of promoting healthy choices, especially in attaining the goal of a healthier lifestyle. Developing and maintainin­g healthy eating habits through incorporat­ing fresh foods is a positive approach towards overall wellness.

Keells supermarke­ts have always been in the forefront of ensuring high quality and freshness of all its produce. As a leading brand in Sri Lankan retail, Keells ensures that the customers are offered the best in quality, nutrition and taste, with special emphasis given to fresh produce.

This new challenge and reward offering from Goyo is also ideal for those who are already making a conscious effort to have a healthier diet helping them gain rewards without having to drasticall­y change their lifestyle.

“With this challenge, Goyo goes one-step further. We aim to highlight the significan­ce of fitness coupled with healthy eating. Partnering Keells, we are able to focus on healthier lifestyle choices and demonstrat­e the importance of rewarding our users with essentials such as fresh products,” Goyo Head Srikanth Rabel explained the idea behind this challenge.

Since its launch, Goyo has continuous­ly delivered simpler, faster and more intuitive user experience­s helping individual­s’ kick-start their fitness goals. Goyo has also contribute­d to enhancing activity communitie­s and successful­ly engaged fitness enthusiast­s, in addition to benefittin­g all users irrespecti­ve of their age to remain fit and active.

Internatio­nal organisati­ons such the American Heart Associatio­n, World Health Organisati­on together with local entities, Diabetes Associatio­n of Sri Lanka, Noncommuni­cable Disease Unit have also recommende­d a weekly quota of 150 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity with proven health and lifestyle benefits.
