Looking for a Sweatcoin alternative?

Sweatcoin pays you in its own coins for steps you take. If you want something built around daily goals, streaks and rewards from brands, StayActive is worth a look.

Why people switch

People who like Sweatcoin's idea but want a clearer goal each day often prefer StayActive. Instead of collecting coins for every step, you aim for 5,000, 10,000 or 15,000 steps, keep a streak going, and climb levels. It turns walking into a habit with a finish line every day.

The rewards are different too. StayActive works with health and lifestyle brands, so your points go toward things like free items and perks, or a donation to charity.

When Sweatcoin may suit you better

If you use an Android phone today, or you prefer browsing a large marketplace of offers, Sweatcoin may be the better fit for now. There is nothing stopping you from trying both.

How StayActive works

StayActive is a free iPhone app. Your steps sync automatically from Apple Health, so there is nothing to log by hand.

Turn your walks into rewards

StayActive is free on iPhone. Android is coming soon.
