payFit puts your own money behind the promise you keep breaking. You decide what a skipped day costs. You fund that amount up front. Every day you train, you take a photo — that clears the day and the money stays yours. Miss one, and it comes out of your balance. That's the whole product. No coach, no streak confetti, no leaderboard of strangers. HOW A DAY IS CLEARED Take a photo. At the gym, on the trail, in your front room — whatever you're doing. Nobody reviews it. You chose to put your own money up, so there is nobody to fool but yourself. Forgot to check in? Check in the next morning and the money comes straight back to your balance. THE MONEY IS YOURS You fund a balance in advance rather than handing over a card and hoping. A missed day comes out of that balance — so there is no surprise charge, nothing to decline, and nothing to dispute. Whatever is left is yours. Withdraw it at any time and it goes back to the card that funded it. WHAT IT NEVER DOES • Your check-in photos never leave your phone. Not uploaded, not reviewed, not added to your camera roll, and kept out of iCloud backups. • Nothing about a workout is ever sent anywhere. What payFit does report — how the app is used, never what you did in it — is spelled out in the privacy policy. • If you connect Apple Health, payFit reads workouts and nothing else. No heart rate, no steps, no sleep, no weight. • Nothing before the day you arm your stake can ever be charged. PAYFIT PRO — $10/MONTH • Days clear themselves. An Apple Watch or Health workout counts on its own, so the daily photo becomes optional. • Stake as little as $1 a day. Free starts at $5. • Earn a day back. Clear 7 days in a row and one missed day is returned to your balance. Free works on its own, forever. Pro is for people who want the chore gone.
