What if you could download an app and just by having your smartphone in your pocket you could earn money? That was probably what the founders of Sweatcoin thought of when making this app. Now it’s actually a thing and you can download the app today (link at the buttom of this page). All you have to do is to install it, sign up and start walking! Okay, it’s maybe not that easy. So let’s jump through what you’ll need to know before downloading the app.

 

first of all

The in-app currency is called SWC, which basically is an abbreviation for Sweatcoin. By walking you earn up to 5 of these so called sweatcoins everyday. And as you may ask. How much do they equal to in USD. Well, it’s maybe a little bit hard to explain the exact equation to an US Dollar. But how we calculated this was by finding the cheapest payout price. By having 20.000 SWC you can have $1.000 sent to your PayPal address. That basically means 20 SWC = $1… BUT HOLD ON! That may not seem as a lot. But we got you covered. We’ll both tell you how to higher your income to earn up to 20 SWC every day and how to get even more for your sweatcoins!

 

earn more per day

When you download the app the default plan enables you to earn up to 5 SWC per day. But if you go into the settings and tweak them a little, you can actually earn 4 times more. Isn’t that great? All you have to do is to go to the profile tab in the app and choose ‘Monthly Subscription’ and click on it. Then you’ll have a choice to choose between several plans. Keep in mind that these plans costs a small amount of sweatcoins every month, but we think that is nothing in comparisons to what you earn.

How it works is simple. By choosing ‘Shaker’ you can earn up to 10 SWC by walking 10.000 steps a day. ‘Quaker’ is 15 SWC per 15.000 steps and then ‘Breaker’ is 20 SWC per 20.000 steps. Remember that you really have to go that many steps a day in order for it to be considerable option. But this does not mean you won’t get paid if you don’t take 15.000 steps a day and have the ‘Quaker’ plan, but instead you’ll get paid for how many steps you did take. Let’s say you have the ‘Quaker’ plan and go 11.000 steps, then you’ll earn 11 SWC.

 

What can you actually do with sweatcoins?

If you don’t want want a payout you’ll probably get a lot more for your sweatcoins. But what are the actual offers in the app? It all depends on your region. But in the US there’s everything from clothes to Samsung TV’s. And you can also receive giftcards to Amazon, Nike etc. The offers are constantly updating. So beware that there may come new offers every day.

 

what else?

The app does also have a tab where you and your friends can compete. You can see your and their activity to see who is better. And you can even send them sweatcoins using the app. So perhaps next time your out with friends and they are paying for you, you can thank them by sending them some sweatcoins… Or maybe not.

Sweatcoin does take 5% of your sweatcoins when converting your steps into SWC. But that's nothing when you think about that you can paid just for walking.

Overall Sweatcoin is a really great concept and product. I definitely think you should try it out at least. I personally use this app everyday. So check it out below!
