Apple Watch Users More Engaged
To date, Apple Watch has been a popular and effective aspect of the John Hancock Vitality Program. A recent analysis of John Hancock Vitality members showed that Apple Watch users are more engaged in the program, earning roughly seven times more points in their current program year compared to non-Apple Watch users.
Vitality PLUS customers who take part in the Apple Watch program make an initial payment of $25, plus tax, and pay the remaining balance monthly over the course of two years. Monthly payments can be reduced to as little as $0 with regular activity. The Vitality Points earned toward Apple Watch can also lead to additional rewards and discounts, including savings on life insurance premiums.
