Hi Samuel,

We're so sorry you're having issues regarding receiving emails.

We have checked your support ticket and see that your Sweatcoin account associated with the email address you contacted from has indeed been deleted, but we've requested some screenshots showing the emails you've received (including the email address these were sent to) so that we can look into this further from our end.

It may be that you have another account opened accidentally which needs deleting as well.

We're happy to help you here, please double check your emails and get back to us when you can 🙏🏼

(step )away from this company

I had over 2,500 sweatcoin, I was penalized for changing phones. They claim they cannot operate on Android,they were very unhelpfully. I also did a 100,000 step challenge,this was very hard for me to do being disabled. I completed the challenge thinking I was getting the reward of a £25 Amazon voucher,all I got were excuses about how I could not get the voucher. I'm trying to find a way at the moment to gather all my valued items I have with them to transfer to Crypto so I can close my account. I would not trust them at all.

Hi John,

We're sorry you felt the need to leave us such a poor review.

Please note that we would never penalise a user for changing their phone.

It seems that you've reinstalled the app on a new device and ended up "signing up" therefore creating a new account, rather than "signing in".

In order to fix this, please just uninstall the app and reinstall using the credentials initially used to sign up. If you were struggling to locate these, just send us an email at support@sweatco.in and our support team are ready to help -- note, we can't see any support tickets logged from you.

Regarding not being able to operate on Android, we're not entirely sure what you're referring to here - we operate on most Android devices (and all Android devices which are most widely used).

Regarding £25 Amazon voucher, again, without any support ticket from you or further information, we're not sure what offer you're referring to or why you'd think that you'd won there. If you could send us along screenshots or more information, we'll be happy to again help here.

Many thanks,
Team Sweatcoin

I got $1400 by auction

I started sweatcoin from Apri, 2022. And I've run and walked over 30,000,000 steps. The auction using almost all sweatcoins I had was very exciting. I felt very happy when I won the auction.

Hi Dale,

We're not sure what you're referring to here with regards our app being "fake" or a "scam". Note, Sweatcoin doesn't claim to allow you to cashout any of your sweatcoins - we do, however, reward you for your steps and have tons of amazing rewards in our marketplace for you to use your sweatcoins towards.

Note, if an app is explicitly telling you that you can earn money with them, we'd suggest exercising caution, as these apps are much more likely to be "scams".

If you wanted any assistance or explanation as to how to use Sweatcoin, just let us know!

Great for the entire family. . Keeps Everyone Active!

I have been using sweatco.in for several years. It keeps me active and moving. I try to outdo my previous week so the weekly score cards are nice to receive to see my previous week in comparison to my current week. My only issue is logging into the sweatcoin wallet because I don't have the activation email anymore so I haven't been able to log into that for a while now.

Customer support is awful. App is buggy..

Customer support is awful. They only send form letters and never solve any problems. Their software and app often doesn't convert steps into sweatcoins. Customer support blames my phone when in reality it's their software. I uninstalled and reinstalled the app numerous times. I have rebooted my phone numerous times as they suggested. Their tips are useless. They just blame everything else aside their crappy software and app. It actually used to be good up until about a month or so ago..They close my support tickets because they say they don't have enough information but never state what further information they need. This app is terrible and I'm contacting my Congressman to investigate them since they refuse to give me any customer support or offer to manually credit my account for steps taken. They're cheating me and thousands (based on reviews here and on other sites) out if sweatcoins due their lousy software.

Used to be good but have now had months…

Used to be good but have now had months of issues with daily boost. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Cleared data. All latest updates but still resolves to $0, on the days it doesn't just spin for 3 days, finally finish, still give you $0 but keep you from starting another boost that day. First reported to support in April, 3 months and same issue keeps returning.

Can't collect in some cases due to lack of NEAR but no notifications given until NEAR had run out. Tried to transfer from spouse but NEAR charge for transaction was higher than NEAR she has left.

$1000 Amazon Gift Card Winner

I am the June 2024 winner of the Sweatcoin $1000 Amazon Gift Card Auction. As promised, the prize redemption process was easy and quick. My prize was emailed to me within 2 weeks. I am very grateful to Sweatcoin for creating an Ap that not only caters to those that love to walk and/or need the motivation to walk - but PAYS to walk! I have been active member since 2018. If you need more convincing, this is my 2nd time winning an Auction. In 2020 I won the $1000 Lululemon Gift card! Sweatcoin is a great way to stay healthy and be rewarded.

Thank you for your review, Edita and well done on that amazing auction win. We're so pleased to hear you've put your hard earned steps to good use!

A perfect way to earn credits you can actually use, and win gifts!

This is such an amazing way to keep yourself motivated! I have been a member for years and have used Sweatcoin when I need that little extra push. Not only do you earn steps, but you have the chance to join races against others and win prizes! I just won $500 just for walking! A must have application, thanks Sweatcoin!

Great app and prizes

I’ve been using sweatcoin for over a year and have been able to use my coins to get discounts and special offers on products.
Recently Ive been entering their monthly prize draws and was a little sceptical until I won last months draw, a steam deck. I was totally surprised to have won. I received email notification with details of how to claim my prize. It was straightforward and my prize was delivered really quickly. Very impressed!
I’ll continue using the app as it’s a great way to track my steps each day.

The app is a pointless waste of time

The app is a pointless waste of time. If it bothers to count your steps at all, it does so very intermittently and they are rarely correct.
The developers are more bothered about generating income by bombarding you with ads.
I'll stick to my Fitbit thank you

Sweatcoin boost not converting enough steps

Been using sweatcoin boost for couple of years now but since last few days I'm getting none of the 20 minute active steps converted to anything at all. I noticed they changed the boost provider to Wirex and that's where it all started from. Wirex are disappointing me and many others I'm sure. Admin should look into this.

The app endorses scams

The app endorses scams like the Ekko Pro Max headphones which are nothing more than very low quality plastic headphones. I could have made them myself in a sweatshop in China. The headphones have nothing in common with what has been advertised on the website (which is gone, btw). Ordered them only because I got an 80% discount from Sweatcoin.
