What it does

We took a look at dozens of habit and goal tracking apps and realized they were missing one key ingredient: fear of embarrassment. Head to DollarDoer.Club and commit to a challenge. Fail to complete it? We use that money to post embarrassing ads of you on Facebook 😳 How's that for motivation?
