More than 95% of StepSetGo’s users have been organically acquired and we continue to add more every single day. SSG has come a long way in a short period and the vision to motivate people to stay fit is finally becoming a reality. As an app designed to count steps with an added incentive to walk outdoors, we needed to keep our users engaged during the lockdown. We adapted our features to grant extra benefits to our users to stay active and safe inside their houses. The fact that we are seeing more than 2,50,000 unique users participating in our challenges shows that we got the formula right. Our approach going forward is to make fitness a holistic experience for the users and stay connected through their fitness journey.”
