How do Grow Jars work?

Last updated on Jul 16, 2026

Grow Jars allow you to lock $SWEAT for a set duration to earn yield rewards.

Creating a Jar:

  • Open the "Grow" section.
  • Select the Jar type and duration.
  • Choose the deposit amount.
  • Confirm the transaction and start earning rewards.

Jar types:

  • Regular Jars — fixed APY that depends on the locking duration you choose.
  • Step Jars — flexible APY based on your previous day's verified steps. Free tier: up to 10% APY (step ceiling around 10,000/day). SWEAT MAX subscribers: up to 20% APY (ceiling around 20,000/day). Any user can raise Step Jar yield further with Jar Boosters.

(Premium Jars — higher-APY fixed jars tied to Sweatcoin Premium — are a past product and are no longer offered.)

Good to know:

  • The minimum amount to lock is 1 SWEAT, and only NEAR-chain $SWEAT can be staked.
  • Each jar action (stake, claim, unstake) charges a small gas fee in NEAR-chain $SWEAT on top of the staked amount — the exact fee is shown before you confirm. Keep a little $SWEAT liquid for fees.
  • Staked $SWEAT is locked until the Jar ends and cannot be withdrawn early, but you can claim earned interest at any time.

Jar Unlock:

When a Jar matures, you can either claim your earnings or reinvest them for the same duration and rate.

Risks:

Grow Jars are not risk free. While we work hard to protect your $SWEAT, we cannot guarantee complete safety against all risks. By creating a Jar you accept these risks. Review our full Terms & Conditions before locking funds.
