Lucerne, Küsnacht and Zurich, Switzerland – The Swiss online health insurer Sanagate AG, an independent subsidiary of CSS insurance, launches an innovative points system on its recently launched digital health engagement platform SanaHealth, to reward its users for healthy behavior. SanaHealth is powered by dacadoo. The new behavioral based points earning model was developed by both dacadoo and Loylogic, which also provides the state-of- the art redemption platform for the programme.
Sanagate provides online health insurance in Switzerland since 2009 and is an independent subsidiary of CSS insurance with administrative headquarters in Lucerne. The online insurer made the next step in the digital health prevention for their customers in 2017 when it added the digital health engagement platform SanaHealth to their offering.
Loylogic, the global leader in e-commerce and e-payment solutions for loyalty programmes, implements and runs the programme’s points redemption experience on its market leading reward platform REX. With its extensive experience in the loyalty industry and reward programs, Loylogic naturally became the strategic partner to provide for this loyalty programme for the health industry in its home market Switzerland.
SanaHealth was developed in Switzerland by dacadoo and is intended for Sanagate’s Swiss customers. It engages users in holistic health, including exercise, nutrition, sleep, stress and mental wellbeing. The app’s automated coach keeps users on track by providing personalized messages and by encouraging them to achieve their personal health goals. SanaHealth measures all aspects of a person’s health and provides users with a Health Score – a number between 1 and 1000 which changes in real-time based on how their health is evolving. Today, Sanagate activates and launches an innovative loyalty points system on its SanaHealth platform to reward its users for healthy behavior. In a first pilot phase, this new system will be activated for a restricted group of 1’500 members. The new behavioral based points earning model was developed by both dacadoo and Loylogic.
The new model includes all types of users from active to not so active, and it covers all aspects of a healthy life/behavior by rewarding for exercise, healthy eating, good sleep and for mental wellbeing. Loylogic also provides the SanaHealth-branded loyalty points shop, so that the SanaHealth users can experience an end-to-end solution by earning points for healthy behavior and redeem these points in the full-featured loyalty shop.
Nuot Lietha, Head of Marketing at Sanagate, explains this innovative feature addition to SanaHealth: “The Loylogic Reward Shop is a perfect addition to the SanaHealth App, which was developed by dacadoo. Our customers can now be rewarded for tracking their activities throughout the year, which should provide an additional incentive to adopt and/or maintain a healthy lifestyle”.
Dominic Hofer, founder and CEO at Loylogic, expressed: “This strategic collaboration with Sanagate and dacadoo shows how loyalty can positively impact human behaviour to inspire a better and healthier lifestyle. We are thrilled to reinforce this powerful vision in providing the choice and encouragement every individual may need to pursue their health goals with a strong reward programme and engaging redemption platform”.
Peter Ohnemus, founder and CEO of dacadoo, commented: “What motivates users to stay engaged and active differs from person to person. Some are motivated by gamification features, others by social elements on the platform, and again others by more data-driven feedback. By adding the behavioral-based reward system with the points shop of Loylogic, Sanagate adds an important engagement feature to SanaHealth, and thereby further increase overall user engagement of the platform. We’re very happy that Sanagate takes this innovative step and look forward to follow the positive evolution and outcome”.
