Step 3 - Re-link Withings to Vitality

If your activity appears in the Withings dashboard but it has been longer than 48 hours since you completed your activity and it hasn’t appeared in your Vitality Points Statement, then:

  1. Go to the ‘Activity Tracker’ page in Member Zone

Please note

In high demand periods, it can take up to 48 hours to sync your Withings data to the Vitality Member app and for your Vitality activity points to appear on the Vitality Plan Points Statement. We ask you not to close and open the apps again until the 48 hours have passed, as refreshing multiple times can overload your account and stop the data coming through. If you then close and open your Vitality Member app again after this period, your points will be showing on your statement.
