I really like the idea, Yash! I'm into gaming/esports products too. My only question is, how do you manage e-gift cards as a revenue model? Do you purchase them separately on each marketplace or have any sort of partnership for make them profitable for your company?

@mario_garcia3 Thank you! It is an exciting space to be right now. Right now we do both, but we will fully work with partners as we scale. Our existing partnerships provide us the rewards for discounted/free in exchange for good PR and advertising.

Heroes of Product Hunt, Problem: As a gamer, I always found it hard to stay motivated to exercise. Any time I spent away from the game felt like a waste. My character’s level and gear meant more to me than my own health. That's why I built Hero Trainer, a free mobile app for gamers. It is the only app where you can use your steps for in-game currency or a full game. It keeps you focused on your game while you get healthy. Features: - Not Your Wii Fit: This will never get boring. Your steps will always count towards that next exciting game regardless of game platform. - Meet Gamers Into Fitness: Chat and meet gamers from all walks of life: a former NFL player, an eSports host, and ANW Competitor to mention a few. - 1UP Motivation: From leveling up heroes to completing quests to challenging guilds to keeping your daily streak, we've made it fun to stay fit. How it works: - Earn Aura for each step tracked on Apple Health or Google Fit. - Trade Aura for in-game currency or a full game entirely. Skip the Waitlist: Hero Trainer is an invite-only app to maintain a healthy supply of rewards for our users. For this week, everyone who signs-up will directly get to use the app.

@yashvjain I signed up a few days ago (Monday, I think?) but never received an invite code. Did I miss the window?

@therizzo Double check to see whether it did not go to your spam email. If you did not receive a code, send an email to yashjain@hero-trainer.com. I will supply one.

@yashvjain good the approach. Would love to see what you think of Barbarian Fit. We’re also trying to focus on health for gamers and using videos to inspire good fitness habits.

Looks like a great product! Curious to know what game titles you offer, and how it works. I've added some feedback over the landing page in the meantime - hope it helps :) Congratulations launching on Product Hunt!

@christian_piponides Christian, thank you! Amongst dozens are League of Legends, Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Elder Scrolls Online, Super Smash Bros, Ultimate, but we also have gift cards for every system. How it works: 1) The app tracks every step you walk through Apple Health or Google Fit. Regardless of how the steps are received, it will get synced to Hero Trainer. 2) The steps are automatically exchanged for Aura. 3) You can then use Aura to purchase in-game currency i.e Riot Points or a full game i.e Cyberpunk 2077. Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback over the landing page, but for some reason it re-directs me back to my product hunt. Would you kindly be able to resend the link?

What is the business model?

@giulio_michelon Excellent Question! At the moment, we rely on advertising and affiliate marketing. However, at the end of the day, we want to provide value and support to keep players mentally and physically healthy.

How possible would it be to show proof of payment. And how do you restock?

@yosemite_sam I understand your question and since most of these apps that offer "free", don't usually do come in the scam or strings attached. I would say the best way for us to show proof of payment is to read reviews on the App Store or Google Play store or to talk to users on our discord channel https://discord.gg/QyaUG6J. We promise you anyone you speak with on our channel can vouch for earning a fully functional gift code.

@pdx_jedi_ninja It works with smart watches that sync with Apple Health or Google Fit. At the end of the day, if those steps make it there, it will be on Hero Trainer.
