It’s basically the same scammy “fill out surveys to get gift cards” type thing. Like walking earns you points and theoretically walking 8 miles a day could earn you enough to get two dollars a week. But quickly it’s directing you to the “real” way you earn points. signing up for stuff and buying things and so on.

like Basically any of those gift card for survey things will give you some tiny insignificant amount of “free points” to get you in. This is that, but the free points are tied to walking instead. With high requirements and low caps so they know you aren’t really even going to earn the max and even if you did the max isn’t much
