Why it works

Why Health Bingo works

Building healthy habits is not about willpower. Science tells us we need motivation to change and stick to new habits. When the experience feels encouraging, rewarding, achievable and enjoyable we feel more motivated to stick with it — and we're more likely to build momentum.

Health Bingo is built around The BINGO Method™ — a simple, brain-friendly approach that brings together connection, rewards, play, progress and choice to help healthy habits stick, and it's memorable and easy to remember!

The BINGO Method™

Healthy habits are easier to stick with when they feel social, rewarding, achievable and fun. That is why Health Bingo is built around the BINGO Method™ — Belonging, Incentives, Novelty, Goals and Ownership — an approach built on behavioural-science principles to help you build healthy habits and stay on track to achieving your health goals.

  • B

    Belonging

    The brain loves to connect.

    We achieve more together. Encouragement, accountability and shared experiences help healthy habits stick.

  • I

    Incentives

    The brain loves to be rewarded.

    Points, badges and achievements celebrate progress and motivate us to keep going.

  • N

    Novelty

    The brain loves to play.

    Turning health into a game sparks curiosity, makes healthy choices more enjoyable and keeps people coming back.

  • G

    Goals

    The brain loves to progress.

    Small, achievable goals build confidence, create momentum and make success feel attainable.

  • O

    Ownership

    The brain loves to choose.

    When you choose your own path, you're more engaged, more committed and more likely to create lasting change.

Together, these five elements help turn small actions into healthy habits, build momentum and support you in reaching your health goals.
