Hey guys im working on processing payment BH / WH.
I provide Stripe, MIDs and others payment processing hight risk, if you are interesting just send me a dm and let's see.
I have everything if you want to print a lot, i have around 35 people on my group and they make between 10k/day on my processing
Every man has one. The thing you do when nobody's looking. The scroll at 2am. The cigarette you told everyone you quit. The junk food after a clean week. The tab you close before someone walks in. Whatever it is you know exactly what I'm talking about. You can have the gym dialed in, the morning routine, the career plan, the reading list. But if there's one habit running in the background that you keep secret, it's running you. Not the other way around. And deep down you know the reason you hide it is because you know it doesn't match the man you're trying to become.
Here's what I've learned. You don't beat that habit by being stronger. You beat it by making it visible. The habit survives in silence. It needs privacy. It needs you to keep it between you and yourself so there's never a real cost to failing.
The moment I let someone else see my progress even just a streak score on a leaderboard the whole game changed. Not because the urge disappeared. But because now failing meant someone I respect would see it. And that was enough to get me through the moments where willpower wasn't.
I use something for this. You set the habit, track a streak every clean day, and your friends see where you stand and your ego does the heavy lifting. What's the habit you've been hiding? You don't have to name it, but if you're honest with yourself right now, you already know which one it is.
I'm building a habit-quitting app (streak tracking + friend leaderboard). Been growing it pure organic through Reddit and X with zero ad budget. Getting decent traction but I want to turn existing users into a growth channel.
So in the next update I'm adding a refer & earn system. Every user gets a unique link. When someone installs and subscribes through their link, the referrer earns a cut. The app costs $4.99 so the idea is that active users can basically earn back what they paid just by sharing it with a few friends.
My thinking is that the app already has a social mechanic built in — you add friends to see each other's streaks on a leaderboard. So people are already inviting friends to use it. The referral program just adds a financial incentive on top of something they're already doing naturally.
What I'm not sure about yet : How to frame the referral without making the app feel like an MLM thing. I want it to feel like "share it with a friend and get your money back" not "recruit people for commission." Whether Apple has any restrictions on how you can market a referral program inside the app or in the App Store listing.
Has anyone here added a referral system to a paid app? Did it actually impact downloads or just add complexity? Would love to hear what worked and what didn't.
The App is "Ban It" if anyone wants to look on the App Store.
I see some of you resetting your streaks and going quiet after. Like you're ashamed of being back at zero I get it, but I need you to hear this :
Day 0 after a relapse means you're still in the game. You fell, you reset, you're back. That's not failure. That's the whole process.
Day 0 after you stop tracking, delete the app, leave the sub and go back to doing it in silence that's failure. Not because you relapsed. Because you chose to remove the only thing that was making it harder to relapse. You gave your habit its privacy back. The streak is not the point. The streak is just a scoreboard. The point is that you keep showing up in a place where your habit is visible every day you're here, every day your friends can see your score, your habit loses a little bit of its power. Even on day 0.
So if you reset today post it. Say it out loud. "Day 0." That's not weakness. That's the hardest flex in this entire sub. Because the easy thing would be to disappear.
Who's on day 0 right now? Show up.
Everyone talks about discipline like it's a switch you flip. "Just decide to change." "Just commit." Cool. I've "decided" to quit doomscrolling probably 50 times. Deciding was never the problem. The problem is the moment. It's always the same one. You finish a task. You're a little bored. A little tired. Your brain offers you the easy thing just a quick scroll, just one video, just five minutes. And in that moment, discipline isn't some big heroic act. It's just saying no to something small. Again, for the 100th time.
What I realized is that I kept losing that moment because there was no cost to losing it. Nobody knew. Nobody saw. I'd relapse in private, feel bad for 10 minutes, and move on. No consequence. So my brain learned that failing was free.
The thing that actually changed it was adding a cost. I started tracking a streak on an app and added a few friends who can see my progress on a leaderboard. Now when that moment hits and my brain says "just a quick look" there's a second voice that says "they're going to see you reset to day 0." That's it. That's the whole trick. I made failing expensive.
I'm not saying I'm fixed. I still have bad days. But the streak is the longest it's ever been and the difference is that now the small moment has weight to it.
What's the moment you keep losing ?
Something nobody talks about, the people in your life are used to your bad habit. Some of them benefit from it. Your friend who smokes with you doesn't want you to quit because then he's smoking alone. Your buddy who doomscrolls doesn't want you off your phone because now he feels like the only one wasting his life. Your drinking partner doesn't want you sober because now he has to look at himself.
Nobody's going to tell you this. They'll say "one more won't kill you." They'll say "you're being too extreme." They'll say "just relax." That's not support. That's them protecting the version of you that makes them comfortable.
That's why your accountability has to come from people who actually want you to win. Not people who need you to stay where you are. Who in your life has tried to pull you back into your habit? You don't have to name them but you know exactly who I'm talking about.

How to Get Started
Thanks for being part of the very first wave. Together, let's make r/BanBadHabits amazing.
Nobody relapses out of nowhere. There's always a moment right before. You're bored. You're tired. You just had a shit day. You're lying in bed and your brain goes "just one quick look." You know exactly what I'm talking about. That moment is the entire game. Everything else the streaks, the leaderboard, the accountability it all exists to help you survive that one moment. If you get through it, you wake up tomorrow with your streak intact. If you don't, you're back to day 0 writing "I relapsed" in your notes app at 2am.
What I started doing is paying attention to what happens right before. Not the relapse itself but the 30 seconds before it. For me it's always the same pattern I finish a task, I feel a tiny bit of emptiness, and my hand reaches for my phone before I even decide to. Once I noticed that pattern I started interrupting it. Not with willpower. Just by doing literally anything else for 60 seconds. Getting up, drinking water, whatever and the urge passes faster than you think.
I'm not saying this is the fix. I still relapse. But I relapse less since I started watching the moment instead of fighting the habit. What does your "right before" look like? I bet most of us have the same 3 or 4 triggers.
Been building an app in the habit/wellness space for a while now. No funding, no ads, pure organic. Figured I'd share what I've learned so far since I see a lot of people here in the same boat.
Reddit has been the best channel by far and it's not even close. I don't post links or spam. I just spend time in subs where people are already talking about the problem my app solves — r/nosurf, r/getdisciplined, r/stopsmoking, that kind of thing. I read posts, reply with actual advice, and mention my app only when it makes sense. The intent is already there. You don't need to convince anyone they have a problem. I also created my own subreddit as a home base. Not to shill the app but to have a place I control where I can post content, test ideas, and not worry about getting banned from someone else's sub.
On X I'm basically a reply guy. I jump into threads about habits, discipline, dopamine detox drop a sharp take, build the following first, sell later. It's slow but the trust compounds. What I haven't cracked yet is Instagram, tried a few things, nothing's really hit. And I'm going back and forth between improving retention vs just pushing more traffic to get data. Leaning traffic for now.
The app is called "Ban It" in App Store, if anyone's curious you track streaks for habits you want to quit and your friends see your progress on a leaderboard
Would love to hear what's working for anyone else doing organic growth in this space!
This isn't another self improvement subreddit.
We're not here to share motivational quotes. We're not here to tell each other "you got this." We're not here to pretend quitting is easy or that one mindset shift is going to fix years of the same habit.
We're here because we downloaded an app, set a streak, and decided to stop doing it alone.
This community is simple : You post your habit. You post your current streak. You stay honest when you relapse. And you show back up the next day. That's it.
The leaderboard inside the app already shows you where you stand against everyone else. This community is where the conversation happens behind the streak. The hard days. The close calls. The days you almost broke and didn't. The days you did break and came back anyway.
My habit that i choose on Ban It is doomscrolling. Current streak : Day 1.
I've reset this more times than I want to admit. But I'm done doing it quietly. What's your habit and where are you right now ? Drop it below day 0 included. Especially day 0.
