Description
WHAT IS BEEMINDER? Beeminder cleverly combines self-tracking and monetary incentives to help you stick to your goals. You pledge (actual money) to keep all your data points on a Yellow Brick Road to your goal and if you go off track, you pay your pledge.
WHO IS BEEMINDER FOR? Here's the way to find out if Beeminder could be useful for you: Is there anything you know you should do, you really do want to do, you know for certain you can do, yet that historically you don't do? (Also, are you a nerdy, lifehacking data freak?) If yes, you should try it!
WHAT CAN BEEMINDER TRACK? Anything you can quantify and graph! Here are some goals that our users have been minding:
o Hitting 145 pounds by December 31 o Reducing credit card balance to zero by January o Blogging twice a month o Getting rid of 100 possessions in the next year o Being able to do 50 pushups by September 22 o Eating, on average, 5 servings of fruit/vegetables per day o Practicing guitar 7 hours per week o Staying at or below 148 pounds o Doing 45 minutes of resistance training per week o Biking 1956 miles in 2011 (until odometer hits 5000) o Spending 40 hours a week building Beeminder (we eat our own dog food!) o Biking 50 miles per week leading up to the NYC Century o Reading Ulysses by December 15 o Clearing out 1 email per day till inbox is at 25 messages o Getting in bed by 10pm at least 5 nights a week o Calling or writing to at least one person per day o Reviewing 10 Anki cards per day o Flossing at least every other day

I love bee minder - it is brilliant at nudging me into doing the right things, and the things I want to do in my life, even when I don't want to do them! The plan is simple: you promise to pay a certain amount if you don't live up to your commitments. It works really well for me, and this app (especially the widgets for individual tasks you have committed to) work really well. A life/organizer/habit fixer. Great stuff!

I am happy that it can make you take action on your goals. I noticed it charging on my completed goals, and the support team very quickly responded. Big thanks for that.

A shallow joke. The app itself is a mess too, basically a shell directing you to the web platform, and it doesn't even do that right. Not to mention you need premium subscription to get full features, despite the fact they make more money off you from one failed goal than most apps make from each user total. The last straw is that they don't even allow you to set or track regular goals, you have to wager a minimum amount on each one. The idea is sound, but its implementation is a borderline scam

I signed up for an account on the website and linked it to my Google account. There are only Twitter and Facebook login buttons in the app...

App doesn't allow to be to sign up, it was quick to accept my Card details though. If I could sign up and use the app I will be able to give proper feedback.
