Wellbeing Across Borders: How Slash Uses CHOYS to Keep Remote Teams Connected and Energised

As a fully remote, fast-growing venture studio, Slash doesn’t just build digital products; it builds culture, too.

With team members spread across Singapore, Indonesia, Cambodia, and Thailand, Slash needed a way to bring people together, maintain high engagement, and support mental and physical wellbeing across time zones and borders.

That’s when CHOYS came in, a platform that brought health, motivation, and community to life for the distributed Slash team. Here we will cover how CHOYS helped slash to stay connected and engaged in a remote environment.

About Slash

Slash is a digital solutions boutique and venture-building agency focused on creating products people love and the world needs. Since 2016, Slash has helped startups, scale-ups, and global teams turn ideas into impact.

But building a product is only half the equation; building a healthy, happy team behind it is equally important. That’s why Slash turned to CHOYS: to support their team’s wellbeing in a way that’s fun, scalable, and aligned with how they work.

The Challenge: Supporting a Distributed Team’s Wellbeing

As a fully remote company, Slash faces a unique challenge: how to maintain real human connection, motivation, and engagement in a workplace where team members may never meet in person.

Traditional wellness programs didn’t fit. They were either too static, too expensive, or too disconnected from daily work life. Slash needed a tool that could:

  • Work seamlessly across locations
  • Keep remote employees engaged and connected
  • Make wellbeing feel like a shared, rewarding experience

That’s where CHOYS stepped in.

The CHOYS Solution: Making Wellbeing Accessible for Remote Teams

Through CHOYS’s wellbeing app, Slash gave its team a platform that supported both health and culture. From physical activity to emotional check-ins, CHOYS made daily self-care part of the team’s rhythm, no matter where they were working from.

Slash employees could:

  • Track their steps, collectively walking an incredible 14.6 million steps
  • Earn CHOYSCoins through healthy habits like hydration, mood check-ins, and sleep tracking
  • Spend coins on rewards that mattered: over 16,600 coins were redeemed for gift cards, experiences, and donations
  • Support mental health with access to tools that encourage emotional awareness and peer visibility
  • Join team challenges that bring fun and recognition into everyday work

With 27,400 CHOYSCoins earned, the Slash team turned health into a habit and habits into culture.

A People-Centered Approach to Engagement

Maria Dela, Head of People Operations at Slash, explains why CHOYS was such a strong fit for their team:
