American pharmacy Walgreens recently launched a costumer rewards program that really lives up to its "At the corner of healthy and happy" slogan. The brand's Balance Rewards initiative aims to encourage consumers to live a balanced life and will benefit those who make steps toward a healthier future.
Walgreens' customer rewards program aims to "make every healthy choice rewarding" and will monitor one's progress in a number of categories. Whether tracking fitness and weight levels or looking to quit smoking, consumers will be able to monitor goals and will be rewarded with Walgreens shopping points for their progress and successes.
In addition to traditional fitness and health goals, the program is also equipped with less obvious services like blood pressure, sleep and pulse tracking that will appeal to the pharmacy's older demographic.
Walgreens' website even gives users access to a digital health advisor tool and offers 24/7 support from dedicated team members who will help you get on track to a balanced life.
