How do Step based Jars work?

Last updated on Jul 16, 2026

Step-Based Jars reward movement by offering yield based on your daily step count :

  • How It Works: Your verified steps from the previous day determine the reward rate applied the next day.
  • APY Range (free tier): up to 10% APY, with a step ceiling around 10,000 steps/day.
  • APY Range (SWEAT MAX): up to 20% APY, with a step ceiling around 20,000 steps/day. The 20% rate requires a SWEAT MAX subscription — free-tier users cap at ~10% no matter how much they walk.
  • Jar Boosters: any user can temporarily raise their Step Jar yield further with Jar Boosters (from the free Daily Booster, 7-day streaks, or referrals).
  • Progress Tracking: View your current APY, accumulated earnings, and history in the "Grow" section of Sweat Wallet.
  • Step Validation Delay: Steps are verified daily before being reflected in your earnings — today's walk shows up in tomorrow's rate.
