Gov. Tony Evers and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) announced those ages 12 and older are eligible for the $100 COVID-19 Vaccine Reward Program. Proof of insurance, I.D., or citizenship are not required to be eligible for the vaccine or to receive the $100.

“As our kids start returning back to school, and with the delta variant spreading rapidly across the state, we all need to step up and stop the spread, and our COVID-19 vaccines are the best tools we have to do just that,” Evers said. “From now through Labor Day, if you’re a Wisconsin resident and you get your first COVID-19 shot here in the state, you will get $100 bucks. It’s that simple: get vaccinated, get $100. I'm calling on all eligible Wisconsinites who have not gotten their COVID-19 vaccine yet to step up, roll up their sleeve, and do their part to help protect our state and put an end to COVID-19.” 

Wisconsin residents will need to fill out a form available at 100.wisconsin.gov to receive the $100. Information submitted will be used to verify that individuals received their first vaccine dose in Wisconsin between those dates, and Visa cards will be mailed to the individual's address. Evers noted it may take up to six weeks to be mailed to participants.

“COVID-19 is continuing to spread and mutate into highly transmissible variants like the Delta variant. Fortunately, the science and data are showing us that we can protect ourselves and our loved ones by getting vaccinated,” DHS Secretary-designee Karen Timberlake said. “The vaccines are extremely safe. They are highly effective at preventing severe illness, hospitalization, and death. And they are critical to protecting our kids, our healthcare workers, and the most vulnerable people in our state. Let’s not give COVID-19 the opportunity to keep mutating: roll up your sleeve, get your vaccine, and claim your $100.”

Evers noted the $100 COVID-19 Vaccine Reward Program will provide some additional support to those wanting to get protected against COVID-19 and will help ongoing efforts to stop the spread of the delta variant.
