Sweatcoin App

Sweatcoin is a digital health and fitness platform that rewards users with a virtual currency for their physical activity, primarily walking. Launched in 2016, the application leverages smartphone sensors to track outdoor and indoor steps, converting them into 'Sweatcoins' which can be redeemed for products, services, or charitable donations. The brand was founded in London by a group of entrepreneurs looking to incentivize movement through technology.

The service is developed and maintained in the United Kingdom, where its core engineering and business operations are headquartered. As a digital product, it does not have physical manufacturing in the traditional sense but its software development and data processing are centralized in its home country and through global cloud infrastructure.

Sweatcoin is owned by Sweatco Ltd, an independent private technology company. The brand has expanded its ecosystem by launching the SWEAT token on the NEAR Protocol, bridging the gap between traditional step-tracking and decentralized finance (web3). The company remains headquartered in London, maintaining its status as a prominent European health-tech innovator.
