About this app

Benevita encourages you to take more exercise, promotes a healthy diet and shows you how to achieve balanced wellbeing. Get support for your preventive healthcare with inspiring content every week and a bonus programme that rewards you for your commitment.

**How the Benevita app works**
The Benevita app contains valuable information in the form of challenges on topics related to exercise, nutrition and wellbeing. You can take on challenges by reading an article and then answering a quiz, watching a video or doing some exercise. You decide when you want to do a challenge. Whenever you successfully complete a challenge, you earn points which can be redeemed for discounts on your premiums or for digital vouchers.

**Personalised content**
Tell us which topics you're interested in and we'll curate a challenge feed especially for you. You can use exclusion criteria to refine your feed and exclude the topics you don't want to see.

**Earn, save and even donate**
With the bonus programme you earn points that you can exchange for discounts on premiums for selected supplementary SWICA insurance plans or digital vouchers. You can also collect community coins to donate to charitable projects as part of the Benevita community. Get active – Benevita is worth your while.

**Benefit with your fitness tracker**
Get rewarded for the activities recorded by your fitness tracker. When you connect your tracker, your steps or active minutes will be converted into points which are then automatically added to your account. You can also declare your activities.

**Premium discount and vouchers**
Benevita rewards your active lifestyle. The Benevita discount is based on the number of points you have accumulated, which you can view in the app. You need 2 500 points for the maximum discount on your premiums. You can also redeem your points for digital vouchers.

The Benevita app is free of charge, even if you aren't insured with SWICA. However, certain offers or discounts on premiums are only available to SWICA customers.

Ratings and reviews

I must say, this is a great app. Especially helpful are the nutrition tips. I learned a lot. I also appreciate the exercise tips, however I already practice conditioning training, so it was mostly known to me. You can even save articles you like for later review. You have three levels to complete and that is to basically go through the articles and videos, which is not so hard to do. You can claim a reward per level, after you complete it. I think more insurance companies should do this! 🇨🇭

I accumulated quite some bonus points and wanted to buy the Spotify voucher, but the button just doesn't work. Tried with some other benefits - nope, the buttons don't do a thing! Then what's the point of collecting them if you can not spend? Quite disappointed and don't want to use the app anymore =( Additionally, I can't connect MiFit fitness tracker app (Zepp Life it's called now). You should add it, Xiaomi fitness bands and watches are very popular!

It's not helpful that SWICA knows that this is not useful for everyone, yet dictates that you must use it to get a discount. How about not punishing people who were already invested in their health and fitness with extra time on their phone to get a deserved discount? It's not a problem with the app development, it's a problem with the mindset of the insurance company. It's great if some people need their hand held, but how about rewarding those who already know instead of wasting their time?
