Stridekick Pro: Why an Upgrade Might Be Right for You

Run private challenges for any group size, plus group and team modes

Hello there!👋 If you’re on this page it’s probably because you’ve heard about Stridekick Pro and would like to learn more. Or, you got hopelessly lost and have no idea what Stridekick is. Either way, welcome! 

Stridekick is the #1 app for running step and activity challenges with your friends and family. It’s great for staying motivated, and making your health journey fun, social and enjoyable! 

Connect any wearable or smartphone to track your activity. No device? No problem. We can enable manual entry for you to enter your activity (truthfully, we hope!).

While anyone can download Stridekick and get stepping for free, you can also upgrade to Stridekick Pro to take your fitness journey (and fun) to even greater heights. 

Let’s take a moment to review Stridekick’s free features, and the features that are available when you upgrade to Stridekick Pro.

What do I get with the free experience on Stridekick?

By simply downloading the Stridekick app, you’ll have the ability to create free step and activity challenges to keep you and your crew accountable.

Free challenges allow up to 10 participants and can last up to 7 days – perfect for your workweek hustle competition. 

Plus, you’ll have access to 5 different challenge modes, which can be based on steps, distance or active minutes: 

  • Leaderboard
    • A competition classic to see who can get the most steps, distance, or active minutes.
  • Target
    • Set a big goal to reach by challenge end.
  • Streak
    • Try to reach the same goal every day of the challenge. Don’t break your hot streak!
  • Virtual Race
    • Set a total distance goal and track progress in real time along a fun virtual map of your choice.
  • Daily Habit
    • Complete the same action each day of the challenge. You can track anything–squats, meditation, or even calling your mom. Get creative!

Additionally, all free challenges are public for anyone on the app to join. Who knows, you might just find your next accountability buddy! 👯

What can I get with Stridekick Pro?

More of a serious stepper? Level up and make your challenge dreams come true with Stridekick Pro.

By upgrading to Stridekick Pro, you’ll be able to create challenges up to 45 days long – great for monthly challenges! 

On Pro, you decide the participant limit, so groups of any size can compete. 

Additionally, your challenges will be private to just you and your crew. Only people you invite can join your challenge. 🔒

On Stridekick Pro, groups with more than 50 participants will get access to all 10 challenge modes, including Team and Group competitions:

  • Team Leaderboard
    • Our most popular mode. Join a team and work together to take the top spot! 
  • Team Virtual Race
    • Compete as teams in a virtual race. Participants join a team and work together to reach the finish line.
  • Stick To It!
    • Set a daily activity goal to reach a certain number of times over the course of the challenge. It’s okay to miss a few days!
  • Group Target
    • Combine everyone’s activity to achieve a collective goal, like 100 million steps.
  • Group Virtual Race
    • Move as one to the finish line. Combine all participants’ activity into one score to reach a big distance goal. 
  • Group Target Fundraiser
    • Step for a good cause. Set a collective goal, and donate to a charity of your choice if the group reaches the goal.

With a Stridekick Pro subscription, you’ll also receive priority support from our staff if any questions arise. Or, if you’d just like to say hey! 

At the end of your challenge, you’ll receive a detailed challenge report that makes rewards and recognition super simple. 

*Only plans with 50+ participants get access to all 10 challenge modes
