Here Are Some of the Wildest COVID-19 Vaccine Incentives Thus Far

State leaders introduced a variety of creative incentives to promote the coronavirus vaccine, including material goods, cash, travel perks, free food, drinks, and even weed — but some experts are unsure that this approach works.

The most common incentives have been cash handouts through the entrance in a lottery system, visa debit cards, or college tuition credits, according to a July report from the National Governors Association (NGA).

Some states have offered free entrance into state parks, fishing and wildlife licenses, travel miles and hotel points, or tickets to professional sporting events and adventure parks, according to the NGA. . .

President Joe Biden asked state, local, and U.S. territorial governments in July to issue $100 payments to every American who receives the first shot of the coronavirus vaccine, according to Reuters. The funds would come out of the $350 billion available in the American Rescue Plan Act, the Treasury Department said in a statement on July 29.
