Sweatcoin is a mobile app that pays you a "digital currency" to walk and stay active, which you can exchange for fitness related rewards.  

This digital currency is known as Sweatcoin (SWC)

Ultimately, the more active you are, the more SWC you'll earn, and the more rewards you can redeem. 

The app is available for Apple mobiles and Apple Watch, and Android devices.

There are 3 steps to getting started with Sweatcoin:

1. Join Sweatcoin for free via the App Store or Google Play Store
2. Start walking
3. Exchange coins for rewards

To get started right away, just click on the relevant play store button for your mobile device and download the app straight to your phone.

As soon as it's installed, you're ready to go!

The amount you earn on Sweatcoin is based on how active you are on the app. 

1000 Steps = 0.95 SWC

It's also good to remember, that you won't get paid in cash. You'll get access to fitness-related rewards, which you can redeem your SWC on. 

To be able to earn any Paypal cash, you would need to earn 20,000 SWC. 

So for many people, this could take a longer time, depending on how many sweatcoins you're able to earn. 

Additionally, it also depends on which membership level you are currently on...which I will discuss further.

There are currently 5 different memberships within Sweatcoin, and each membership has a daily limit to how many sweatcoins you can earn.

As a free member, your maximum daily cap is 5 sweatcoins, this increases as you move up the higher tiers. 

But you can pay for the upper tiers using the sweatcoins you're already earning. So there's no need to spend any actual money

Level 1 - Mover: FREE

Earn up to 5 SWC/day or 150 SWC/month

Level 2 - Shaker: 4.75 SWC/month

Earn up to 10 SWC/day, or 300 SWC/month

Level 3 - Quaker: 20 SWC/month

Earn up to 15 SWC/day or 450 SWC/month

Level 4 - Breaker: 30 SWC/month

Earn up to 20 SWC/day or 600 SWC/month

Level 5 - Trouble Maker: Coming Soon

Tip: Only upgrade to levels that you know you'll be able to afford with your SWC. There's no point upgrading to the Quaker level if you're not making at least 20 SWC a month, otherwise, you'll just be losing SWC instead. 

1. Daily Reward

You can earn 1 SWC every day by clicking the "Claim it now" button and watching a short ad

It's a little effort required to earn some free sweatcoins, without being active. 

2. Sweatcoins From Referrals

You can also earn free sweatcoins by referring others to the app. For each referral, you can earn 5 Sweatcoins.

I've mentioned some great ways to earn extra SWC for free, but what if you want to earn much more than that, and you're willing to pay. 

Well, here's 2 places where people are selling and buying SWC, and in some cases, you can pay via Paypal.

I personally would stick to using this app for free, however, if you feel comfortable enough with the app and making purchases/selling, then here are some options for you:

1. Reddit Group

There's a whole subreddit on Reddit dedicated to Sweatcoin. Here you'll find people sharing their tips, experiences, and SWC for sale. 

Take a look at the Sweatcoin subreddit to learn more, and click here for the ​official Sweatcoin buying/selling thread

​

2. Sweatcoin Guide

There's a full website, SweatcoinGuide.com, aimed at users of Sweatcoin to learn more about the app, gain some new tips and tricks, and purchase/sell their own Sweatcoins. 

With this website, you can gain quite an in-depth knowledge of Sweatcoin as well as make SWC purchases.

Above are some screenshots of rewards you can expect to earn with Sweatcoin. 

From money off vouchers, to free trial offers, to free gifts. There are a few things to choose from. 

You won't like every reward on there, but hopefully, you'll come across some that will suit you. 

At the time of writing, I haven't yet redeemed my points for any rewards, but I will update this blog post accordingly. 

I have noticed my battery life has been shortened since using the app, but thanks to my tips below I have this covered. 

Additionally, as it's using mobile data, this may be an issue for some users on lower data plans. So it's something to be aware of. 

Anyone interested in earning some rewards with little to no effort, then I think this app is a great addition to have on your phone.

Some Quick Tips From My Experience:

1. Carry your phone with you everytime you walk outside
2. When running or active outside, consider using a sports armband, like this one, for your phone
3. If you find you're losing battery quicker, turn the battery saving mode on and/or invest in a simple power bank, like this one.

Here are a few screenshots of reviews by other Sweatcoin users:

Thanks for taking the time to read my Sweatcoin review. 

As mentioned above, this review is based on my own personal experiences.

I think this is a great app for anyone interested in earn some rewards, without too much effort. There's no need to complete surveys or any "get paid to" tasks. All you need to do is stay active outdoors. 

You can walk a bit more, run outside, play in the park. With just a little extra time spent outdoors, you can claim some great rewards.

Despite the positives, it's important to realise that this app will not make you rich, and you won't be able to cash out the coins into money.

If you're aware of this and still want to go ahead, then Sweatcoin is for you!

So, is Sweatcoin a Scam?! In my opinion, No. Although it'll take time to rack up coins and earn anything substantial, it's an app you can just have running in the background. 

If you're someone that's already active outside, then you won't have to change much to your routine.

Even if you're not very active, just a few small changes here and there can make a difference, not just to earning coins, but also to your overall health. 

This app has some potential, and it's worth giving it a go, even just for a month or so.

If the rewards work for you then stick with it, if you don't like the rewards you can easily uninstall. 

To join Sweatcoin, download to the app today via Apple or Play store and start getting rewarded for being active!
