Garmin Offers Garmin Connect API For Use With Corporate Wellness Programs
Garmin fitness devices are now available for use with
corporate wellness programs through the use of the Garmin Connect API. This
allows corporate wellness programs to engage employees who are
already using Garmin fitness devices, because now they can validate their
activities through the free online community, Garmin Connect— where users have
logged over 4 billion miles to date.
“Integrating
with the Garmin Connect API was an essential part of our fitness device
integration strategy,” said Russell Benaroya, EveryMove CEO. “Garmin Connect
was one of the most requested services by our users and Garmin has been a great
partner to work with.”
Garmin has been providing fitness monitoring devices for over a decade,
and today, offers a broad range of fitness monitors for active people. With the
Garmin Connect API, these trusted products can be used within a company’s
corporate wellness program, providing motivation for the efforts of
participants.
Garmin
users have access to Garmin Connect
,
a free online community where members can review their workouts, share
activities, consult training plans and explore new places to run or ride.
Wellness members, in participating plans, can
choose to share their fitness data from Connect with their wellness program — a
simple, one-time process. Then, every time a user uploads an activity from their
device, participating wellness companies automatically receive a summary of the
workout, providing objective information to recognize the member’s active
lifestyle.
“It’s been great working with
the Garmin team to create a seamless experience for our members that provides
them with all the benefits of Garmin Connect and Vitality incentives in
recognition of their efforts,” said Stephen Mitchley, The Vitality Group Chief Operating
Officer.
Today, program participants are able to share fitness data from a
growing list of wellness companies, including EveryMove, Redbrick Health and The Vitality Group.
