Almost everything we do at Earndit can be boiled down to one purpose: to give you reasons to value your Earndit points. In doing so, you’ll continue to exercise in order to get those cherished points, and in turn we can help create a healthier population. So far there have been two primary reasons for you to want Earndit points — so that you can redeem them for rewards, and so you can be eligible for prizes in the sponsored challenges. For most people, these two value propositions are compelling enough to get them to be active. But now we’d like to add a third value proposition: charitable donations! We’re thrilled to announce that you can now spend your points for a social cause.
How does it work? Whenever a community goal is reached for one of the charitable efforts we support, we will make a donation in support of that goal. By redeeming your points for a certain cause, you’ll bring the Earndit community closer to the goal and closer to unlocking a donation. There are currently 6 causes that you can support.
In full transparency, we generate revenue whenever you redeem your points for a reward or whenever you participate in a sponsored challenge; on the contrary, charitable donations will cost us money. It’s our hope that you’ll continue to see value in the rewards we offer & the sponsored challenges we host and continue to use Earndit in those ways. Ultimately though, these charitable donations are an extension of our social mission of making this world a slightly healthier place.
To see which causes you can donate your points to, just go to the tab titled “Redeem” and click the sub-section called “Giving”.
Please let us know what you think of this new dimension of Earndit.

Yes, we’re cheezy.
