How are Pacepoints earned?

Modified on Mon, 28 Sep at 11:46 AM

You can earn Pacepoints in a few ways, then redeem them for exclusive rewards and Marketplace discounts. Here's how each one works.


Achieve your Weekly Goals

Weekly Goals are the most reliable way to earn Pacepoints. They're grounded in American Heart Association (AHA) and CDC recommendations and built to support better cardiovascular health, stronger muscles, and more consistent habits.

  • Your goals refresh every Monday. Open the Paceline app and tap View Goals to generate your goals for the week.
  • You'll get 5 Weekly Goals, with up to 2,000 Pacepoints available for completing them all.
  • Progress tracks automatically through your connected device.


For the full goal list and details, see Weekly Goals Overview.


Personalized Goals with Paceline+
Paceline+ members get Personalized Goals: 5 goals each week calibrated to your recent activity, across Distance, eHR Minutes, Sleep, Steps, Strength Workouts, and Workout Zones. You can earn the same up to 2,000 Pacepoints per week, with goals focused on the areas that can make the greatest difference for you. Learn more in the Paceline+ overview.


Place on a Leaderboard

Leaderboards let you see how your movement stacks up against fellow Pacers each week. Everyone who joins a Leaderboard earns 50 Pacepoints, and a Top 10 finish earns bonus Pacepoints.

  • Join from the Social tab by choosing Join Any Leaderboard, Join Steps Leaderboard, or Join eHR Leaderboard.
  • Leaderboards run Monday 12:00 AM → Sunday 11:59 PM in your local timezone.

Earn Badges for milestone moments

Badges celebrate your progress over time. Each badge you earn awards between 1,000 and 3,500 Pacepoints, depending on the achievement.

  • Targets track your cumulative activity through the year across Steps, eHR minutes, Strength, Stamina, Spirit, and Agility workouts. You move up in rank as you hit each new threshold.
  • Achievements mark specific moments, like hitting 3 different workout types in a single day or a daily step milestone.

Additional badges with Paceline+
Paceline+ members unlock additional badges with new milestones only available to subscribers. Learn more in the Paceline+ overview.
