How does Sweatcoin work?

  1. Sweatcoin track & verify your steps using your phone’s built in accelerometers and GPS location system.

How much does Sweatcoin cost?

The app is completely free and always will be. Even the in-app purchases wont cost you anything other than a little bit of sweat. Basically you start off as a "Mover" this entitles you to convert 5000 steps per day into Sweatcoins.

Imagine going out for a beer with your buddies and you forget your wallet, your mate buy's you a beer and to pay him back you just ping him some Sweatcoins right from inside the app. You then walk home, feeling great that you have totally earned your awesome night out.

Or make yourself fell even better and  donate your Sweatcoins to some of the amazing partnering charities, making for an easy way to help others around the world.
