Sweatcoin

I don’t know about you, but I’m not a big fan of exercise. I’m a nerd who flies drones, works from a desk, and plays video games with my kids. Don’t get me wrong, I get out (sometimes), but being overly active just isn’t my thing.

That being said, what if you were being paid to be active? Sounds too good to be true, right? Sweatcoin decided to do just that. The app takes your steps and turns them into dough. Kind of.

You don’t get a paycheck, or anything like that. Instead, it’s a rewards program. The more you walk, the more you earn. Sweatcoin makes its money through partnerships, like insurance companies, that are aiming to keep you healthy and keep their costs down.

You can use your Sweatcoins to purchase all kinds of things, from headphones to audiobooks. Remember Headspace, the meditation app? You can even use Sweatcoin to get a free or discounted subscription.

Sweatcoin is free to download, but it does have a subscription fee of 99 cents per month. Get Sweatcoin from the App Store
