Wewards - reward for walking app

I recently downloaded this app. You get points every day for walking depending how many steps you take. 

Minimum payout is £15 and it could take 6 months to get that. You need to remember to load your steps up to the app (it feeds of the iOS health app for step counting).

it also gives rewards for a daily spin and playing games. The problem I have is that the points weren’t loading from the game. Wewards said it was down to the game publishers. The game publishers aren’t responding to my chat requests. If anyone has any ideas?

Other than not relying on the games, it’s fine for a passive earning, though the payout is miserably low.

    What's the payout per step/100 steps? 

    I walk and/or run 10 - 15k steps most days, so this could be a tidy little earner.

    3000 points gives you £15.

    10,000 steps in a day gives you about 10 points, the thresholds go up as you progress. There are also bonus points for completing targets like maintaining steps for a few days in a row and a daily spin and playing games. I’d reckon on it taking about 4 months to get to £15.

    Thanks! I will give it a go I think.
