The Sweatcoin app is definitely one of the best money-making apps out there. It literally pays you for "walking". That's insane!
Yeah, think of it as your walking buddy that pays you for just walking to your favorite places.
While the Sweatcoin app lets you easily make money, it doesn't, however, offer plenty of options for withdrawing your hard-earned money, and yes, it does not offer GCash withdrawals.
Thankfully, there's a way to withdraw your Sweatcoin money to GCash.
In this guide, I'll show you how to transfer your Sweatcoin money to GCash without hassle.
Can You Transfer Sweatcoin Money To GCash?
You can transfer your hard-earned Sweatcoin money to GCash, but not directly.
To do so, you'll need to purchase gift cards with your Sweatcoins, sell them for PayPal balance, and transfer them to your GCash account.
Of course, you'll be using PayPal as a bridge to transfer your Sweatcoin money to GCash.
How To Transfer Sweatcoin Money To GCash
As earlier mentioned, you can't directly complete the transfer. The only way to do it is indirectly by using PayPal.
To transfer Sweatcoin money to GCash, you will need to first redeem the Sweatcoin money to a PayPal voucher, sell the voucher for PayPal balance, link your PayPal to GCash, and then transfer the money from PayPal to GCash.
1. Purchase Vouchers (Gift Cards) With Sweatcoins
The first thing you will have to do will be to redeem your Sweetcoin vouchers.
Sweatcoin lets you purchase PayPal or Amazon vouchers with your coins from the marketplace.
However, you need to make sure you've accumulated as many Sweatcoins as possible before redeeming.
2. Sell The Vouchers For PayPal Balance
After purchasing the gift cards, the next thing will be to sell them for cash or PayPal.
Thankfully, there are many gift card exchanges that let you convert your gift card into cash.
All you need to do is visit these platforms, list your gift card, select PayPal as a payment method, and then provide your PayPal email for receiving payments.
You can also sell your vouchers on social forums such as Telegram, Reddit, or Discord.
3. Link Your PayPal to GCash
Before moving money from PayPal to GCash, you will first need to link your PayPal to GCash account which can be done as follows;
- Log in to the GCash app. Click on "Profile" in the lower right corner of the screen, then tap on My Linked Accounts.
- Select PayPal then nominate the PayPal email account you are linking to GCash and tap on "Link". On the next screen click on "Authorize".
- Log in to your PayPal account. You will be redirected to PayPal's login page. Input your PayPal account username and password.
- Confirm your mobile number and tap on "Continue". An OTP will be sent to your registered number for verification.
TIP: For added security, it is recommended that you enable two-step verification on your PayPal account. Log in to your PayPal account, go to settings, and click Set Up next to "2-step verification". - Linking Complete. Once linking is successful, you will now be able to add funds from your PayPal account to your GCash wallet.
- Upon successful linking, you will receive an email from PayPal indicating "You’ve signed up for a preapproved payments plan to G-Xchange, Inc."

For seamless transactions, convert your PayPal funds into Peso (PHP) to proceed with withdrawal. If you currently do not have Philippine Peso added as a currency, log in to your PayPal account to add the new currency balance. - Cash in Processing — A screen will be prompted to notify that the transaction is in progress. Most transactions are instant or will be processed within the next 24-48 hours.
