- Robinhood now includes a yearly WHOOP Peak membership as a credit card perk.
- WHOOP users will be eligible for a $239 credit for an annual membership, hardware included.
- The offer is only valid if you make the purchase through your Robinhood Platinum Visa card.
Despite newer alternatives, such as the Fitbit Air, cropping up recently, WHOOP’s screenless bands still take the top spot for people who care about fitness metrics more than anything. The companion app, however, is somewhat of a sticking point, not because of what it offers, but the subscription wall WHOOP puts up to let you access your health data. That’s why some people have also attempted to break through the wall with an unofficial open-source app for their WHOOP bands.
But if you’d rather take matters into your own hands and still do not want to pay for a subscription, there’s another way to get a yearly WHOOP subscription without paying for it. Fintech platform Robinhood recently announced that people who own its Platinum Visa credit card will now get a complimentary annual WHOOP Peak subscription. While the $239 yearly subscription will not be automatically available as a perk with the card, Robinhood clarifies that the subscription cost will be offset as a “statement credit.” That means you must purchase your subscriptions through a Robinhood card and not other sources. The $239 bill also includes your hardware costs, so you effectively pay nothing.
