Report on the use of Yokohama Walking Points
It turns out that participation in the business has led to an increase in the number of steps and a trigger for exercise! (FY2023)
The average number of steps taken by participants is increasing.
The average number of steps taken by participants decreased due to self-restraint of going out during the COVID-19 pandemic, but has been on an increasing trend again since FY2022, and the average number of steps taken by app participants in FY2023 was a record high.
Many people start exercising after participating.
Of those who did not exercise before participating in the project, about 56% of the pedometers and apps are exercising after participation.
