How do races in Sweatcoin work? Who can join?
A race is a month-long game challenging users to complete a step goal (e.g. 250,000 steps) within a calendar month. Anyone with a Sweatcoin account can join a race.
All users who finish a race (or reach the step goal) within the month get bonus sweatcoins on top of the ones they've earned from their steps.
How many races can I join?
You can join as many active, ongoing races (and community challenges) as you want.
Will my steps from the start of the race be counted towards the goal even if I join at a later time?
Yes. When you join an active, ongoing race for a given period, we retroactively count your steps from the start of the race. For example, if a race began on July 1st and you joined on July 3rd, we'll include all your steps since July 1st.
What do I win for finishing a race?
On top of earning sweatcoins from your steps, finishing a race rewards with you bonus sweatcoins plus a chance to win in a prize draw when the race is over.
How does the post-race prize draw work?
All users who've joined and completed the race by hitting the step goal on time are automatically entered into a prize draw. We select the prize draw winner at random.
You're not eligible to join the post-race prize draw if you fail to meet the step goal.
For more details, please check the races prize draw terms and conditions.
Do I need to finish first in the race to win something?
No. You need not finish ahead of everyone to get bonus sweatcoins or to win the prize draw. You only need to reach the step goal within the calendar month to qualify for the bonus and enter the prize draw. We select the prize draw winner at random, so anyone regardless of where they finish in the race can win.
For more details, please check the races prize draw terms and conditions.
How do I know if I've won the prize draw? If you've won a prize draw, we'll reach out to you through your balance in the Sweatcoin app and by sending you an email notification.
