Sweatcoin Reviews 5,739

Big waste of time, 3 years of using it and not a single dollar gained. Don’t waste your time and let them steal your data for free !

First, I'd like to explain why even though I have more criticism to offer now, I gave the overall service an additional star.

One star reviews are reserved for absolute and total crap services and I want to believe that this is not that.

They managed to set up a whole whitepaper for a crypto asset... which they allow you to generate from just walking around. (Although the generator is not allocating real steps properly unfortunately)

It's probably been a tough road 🛣️ for them and i acknowledge that developing a perfectly working app takes more effort than a small team (in comparison to apps like YouTube, Facebook, X, etc.) can handle.

Reference to my previous review for other/main criticisms btw.

More bad news: They have a "spin to win" game... (within their wallet app for crypto)

Every time you spin the wheel it shows you an ad (means they to gain actual revenue)

and then if you spin again... you might wind up with zero.

Basically like I've said before: There's a lot of "gambling" involved in this app.

Oh and their Web3 game (same app) performs quite poorly on my device... It's not the newest... (But its a Pixel 3 XL running Android 12... never had a performance issue yet with other apps.)

It's at least not the illegal kind of gambling...

I wonder if it should be. They should reward a loss of the "game" somehow... Like if you get zero... Get double for whatever you win next time...

Or if that's not an option, perhaps they could give you a "coupon" for the gas fee when you lockup SWEAT. Since they're trying to encourage people to do exactly that anyway.

If they can't do any of those, maybe they shouldn't be offering such games.

Crypto will usually come with some form of gas fee. For every transaction you wanna lockup the coins (for up to 12 months) to increase (or how they call it "grow") your SWEAT coins simply through holding them, you will have to pay a 0.25 SWEAT gas fee.

So it won't make sense to lockup just 1 SWEAT... or even just 5 SWEAT... you're gonna wanna accumulate some SWEAT to make the percentage of your loss lower.

Works when it wants to. Some days it works OK. 50% of the time it doesn't. Click on the 20 minutes 2 x open Boost. Maybe it works but some of the time it doesn't. I do my work out and 50%of the time I get nothing for my efforts. Very poor on behalf of the owners

App is great but customer service is not, I emailed twice about that my app does not show the insights about how many steps I got for a day and previous day..but no any response I got.

Sweatcoin isn't a SCAM, but it is a sheet. I did open an account 20 days ago. Walked 5000 - 15000 steps per day, the maximum I got was 0,87 per day. I don't want to get into details. After 20 days of activity, I got 18,36 SWEAT coins - 20 US Cents. You will be bombarded with ADS, and you have to wait (sometimes) 2+ minutes to be able to kill those ads. A lot of ADS, a lot of everything - they are using Google FIT - that's it... I think that platform is "made" just to get you to click on those ads - They don't give a sheet about your activity. I am going to delete this APP. Btw, they have some kind of wheel of fortune... I never got some extra... always the least of points - like I'm against the Roulette. Please, don't use it... some kind of a "scam".
Edit: 06/15/2025 - They said you don't have to watch adds, but you will earn even less. Btw, you will see some guys, mostly from India, and some other states - they have 100-150K steps per day - which is impossible... IMHO - You will not earn much. There isn't or wasn't some real control of number of steps. Do not use.

What better way can you earn while walking? Sweatcoins does just that. Earn coins just for walking. Free coins just for watching videos, even earn some real cash too just for watching. Become a humnitarian and donate your coins to charity. Or even enter a few raffles. Use your coins to apply for trials. You can even join a community and every together can earn coins for some amazing causes. And all you have to do is walk.

Most purchased products cannot acquest to policy on sweat coin let alone allow it! Ihave only gotten 1 water bottle from exchange, the rest is a fail and lost of credit!!!

Used to work perfectly, No longer accurate, steps not converted to sweatcoin, I lose thousands of steps each week. Boost very rarely works now and they have the cheek to blame Apple as I use iPhone 15.

Used to love this app as I could compete with family and in turn promoted better health.

It appears Sweatcoin have got too successful and now do not want to pay coins.

Very disappointing to say the least

I cant believe it, sweatcoin it so real for money free, just walk with it and you can earn money.
Thank you so much i become a winner for this February. Prizes are exchanged for Cash money because im come from Malaysia, they cannot send items. I really recommend you all to join them.

100% scam. Their 'competitions' are linked to premium rate numbers. They don't have any contact details. This in itself should be raising concerns. Carry on at your own risk.

I liked this project since the beginning. I have been using it for a long time never managed to buy anything from auction but i like the concept.

I have been a Sweatcoin user since 2020. I participated in the auction in 2022 and won. Then I filled out the form and an e-mail was sent by your team. Then the following message came from you:

"Hello,
We have received your Typeform submission. Please allow us some time to process this and to run the necessary fraud checks.
"All the best"

And a few hours later the email came again:

"Hi there,
No worries at all as you have passed the fraud check anyway. "I will order your prize in the next coming days and send you a confirmation email once that's done."

And after all these emails, the monetary value of the prize I won was paid to me (2022). Then I asked this person in your team if I could participate in the auctions again and your team said "yes you can." I still have emails from you regarding all of this.

And at the end of this period, 20 days ago in 2024, I participated in the "$1000 Hotelsgift Card" auction and won. 20 days have passed and you say you cannot give me this reward. I have never violated any rules, I have purchased premium membership from you for years and I have kept and waited for my sweatcoins for years. I won the award and yet you don't give me my award. You made a "fraud check" in 2022 and sent my reward. Why don't you send it now? Please give me the reward I deserve and solve this problem.

I ask for an apology for the unpleasant unacceptable reactions during my previous reviews.The 25 dollars I wrote was actually an error. But even if it’s 25 sweatcoins, I did not receive it. Anyway, I’m fine and regretful of my impulsive reactions. I profoundly understand the good intention of Sweatcoin to encourage and motivate people to walk. Actually, with and without the prize, it is my personal responsibility to keep my body healthy, and walking is one of the best and most easy way to do. Now, I have completed the 100k steps Valentne challenge and about to complete the 250k steps challenge. In fact, I must be grateful to Sweatcoin for initiating and providing the impetus or stimulation for people to keep walking.
Thank you so much. God bless

Been using for a couple of years now, as a mixture of paid (trouble maker) and free. Finally won an auction worth allegedly £220.00 of goods, with just half of the coins i've accumulated so far.
Also have $226 (as of writing this review) worth of the SWEAT crypto.
Would highly recommend using both Apps.
Only 4* because they removed Trouble Maker and there is now only Premium or Free, and Premium is 2x the price Trouble Maker was.
2nd reason kind of links in, as unless you are walking 200,000 steps per day, you will never outearn all the older users that have insane amounts of coins for the top tier auctions.

I purchased a $100 adidas gift card with my sweatcoins last March and haven’t used it yet. I tried using it this past weekend and I was directed to bitrefill to access it. Upon entering the gift card code, I was met with an error message. I contacted Sweatcoin support but they said that because it’s been past 30 days, I can’t get a refund. But I wasn’t asking for a refund, I just wanna access the gift card that I purchased.

Firstly, I’m unable to access my accumulated Sweatcoin, all the way back from 2018. So here’s why YOU MUST NOT lose your activation email, because:
- In the Sweat Wallet, to opt-in and access your SWEAT, it asks you to login through the former app “Sweatcoin”, but when tapping that button, it asks for an activation email, instead of just connecting the THE SWEATCOIN APP I HAVE INSTALLED AND ARE ABLE TO ACCESS…
- If I want to opt-in without the activation-email (which is an option), I have to create a new account in the Sweatcoin app, but then I won’t be able to access my Sweatcoins accumulated from 2018. I have confirmation from the team, that I would have to start over and lose my sweatcoins.
- When going to the Sweatcoin app (not the Sweat Wallet), I can also opt-in to my Sweat Wallet, but when clicking this option, my Sweat Wallet just open and present me with the first and only option (activation email).
- Had I created a passphrase, I may not have had these issues.
- The team can apparently not do ANYTHING if the activation email is gone, regardless of any proof you provide. Perhaps just give up, as you won’t get any solutions or compensation, as it’s of course your own fault for losing the email. It’s just very frustrating that they put everything on a single email and won’t accept concrete imagery from both applications as proof.

Secondly, I was quite “displeased” to learn, that loyal users, all the way back from 2018 and before, didn’t receive any sort of benefit from being early birds. I myself also paid a smaller amount of money monthly, to be able to mint Sweatcoin for all my steps, as I walk a lot. Now, as SWEAT has become a tradable crypto, us (who are early birds) can’t even access the SWEAT we’ve earned, by they are released over time. With the current price, ANYONE could grab a massive bag without it ruining their savings…

I would have to admit, that the concept is great and this is just an annoying situation for me. Anyone should download the apps and start walking. But losing 20.000+ SWEATS because I don’t have an OLD mail, is beyond my comprehension.

Love this app. I challenge myself each week to improve my step count. Better still use the 'Boost' function to earn double Sweatcoins. So many rewards to choose from but I'm saving them up for the bigger rewards.

I used to sit and work at my desk all day and this app prompts me from time to time and reminds me to take a walk, and on top of that I can redeem discounts on brand like Nike and Adidas. Completely changed my routine and made me more active. Definitely recommend!
