Make a bet against yourself to lost between 1-10 lbs in 28 days. If you hit your goal at the end of the 28 days, you keep the cash. Don't lose the weight? Pay up.

How does this application allow entering a credit card and how does it charge? Does Apple take 30%?

@itsnblackburn Thanks! I just have never seen a credit card entry form in an iOS app - usually it's an in-app purchase sort of deal, so it might be a detractor for users as far as trusting the system.

@jpmiller03 I'm one of Motivatr's founders. This is a great question and our payment processing was a bit of a doozy to get approved. Apple requested that we use their payment system however they do not have the ability to hold the cash during a challenge. We got an exception to use Stripe to handle payment processing. There is no transaction conducted until the challenge fails. This is essentially the same payment processing you'd see on a secure web application which saves your CC info. Stripe handles all of the security for us - we don't store anything except the user's Stripe ID on our end.

@alex_mejias Thanks Alex! I think this is a problem that many people have tried to solve and you and your team are onto something here - and that exception to use Stripe is probably a huge advantage! Congrats on the launch!
