Blockchain move-and-earn app, STEPN, has successfully integrated Apple Pay into its platform, making it the first to achieve this feat.
The Deets
- Apple Pay integration simplifies the STEPN user experience for purchasing products.
- Users can now bypass the need for a separate crypto wallet.
- STEPN continues to innovate in the move&earn space, bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3 technologies.
- Co-Founders of Find Satoshi Lab, the developers behind STEPN, express enthusiasm for the integration and its impact on the Web3 ecosystem.
The Bulk
STEPN has set another milestone by integrating Apple Pay into its platform, marking a significant step forward for STEPN and the Web3 ecosystem.
Previously, STEPN users had to connect a separate crypto wallet to purchase STEPN's products, which include non-fungible tokens (NFTs) of virtual sneakers. With the introduction of Apple Pay, the payment process has become more streamlined and the user journey simpler. Users can now directly use their credit or debit cards linked to their Apple Wallet, expediting transactions while maintaining high-security standards.
Since its inception in 2021, STEPN has experienced remarkable growth and built a community where users engage in physical activities to earn valuable rewards fuelled by crypto incentives.
📊 By the Numbers
Since its launch in 2021, STEPN has grown rapidly, scaling from thousands to millions of active users, creating a community centered around health, fitness, and earning crypto rewards.
Though down significantly from its high, STEPN's token, $GMT, is up to $0.3127 in the first 24 hours following the announcement. It is up 17% in the last 24 hours and 15% in the previous seven days.

STEPN users that have worked out for 42 hours using the app will receive free access to the MOOAR NFT trading platform, according to an announcement from the project.
The access will be limited to just one month of a waived subscription fee for those who officially burned more than 500 energy in the STEPN app (approximately 41.7 hours of use).
MOOAR is a new NFT marketplace and launchpad created by Find Satoshi Lab, the company behind the popular STEPN move-to-earn platform. The platform operates with a subscription fee but does not take a trading fee on secondary trades on the marketplace.
To redeem the free month of trading, users who met the aforementioned criteria should look for an email from hello@stepn.com with the necessary steps.
MOOAR recently announced its first five launchpad NFT projects and operates across Ethereum and Solana.

The partnership between STEPN and ASICS was announced earlier this month, with users able to purchase a physical pair of sneakers and an NFT loyalty badge for $200. Each holder of the badge was then entered into a raffle for the 1,001 airdropped NFTs, which can be used in-game or sold on the marketplace.
STEPN users can perform sneaker enhancements from Nov. 17 at 7 p.m. ET to Dec. 18 at 6:59 p.m. ET to win their share of 100,000 $GMT, the project said Wednesday.
During the game, new Around the World Limited Edition Country Sneaker Skins — 32 of them to represent each country in the World Cup — will be handed out randomly to those who perform sneaker enhancements. Holders of the winning World Cup team skin will receive a share of the first-place prize of 50,000 $GMT (about $19,880).
Here is the prize breakdown:
- Winner: 50 percent of 100,000 $GMT pool
- Second place: 25 percent
- Third place: 10 percent
- Fourth place: 5 percent
- Fifth-eighth place: 2.5 percent each
Solana, STEPN, and ASICS have collaborated on a new pair of physical sneakers and NFTs according to a press release from Solana.
The sneaker, which will be manufactured by ASICS, is inspired by Solana's colors and user interface and is being launched as part of the "UI Collection." Shoes are available in both black and white and feature a Solana gradient on the heel and tongue.
Want to purchase a pair? You can only do so with USDC on Solana, using Solana Pay. Solana Pay is a payments rail and infrastructure product that was released by the blockchain's foundation earlier this year.
For $200, purchasers will receive the physical sneakers and an ASICS Loyalty Badge NFT. By holding the loyalty badge NFT, users will also be entered into a raffle for a chance to earn one of 1,001 STEPN x ASICS NFTs, mirroring the UI Collection.
The 1,001 NFTs breakdown is as follows:
- 850 common NFTs
- 150 uncommon NFTs
- 1 rare NFT
The UI Collection is only available via pre-order at ui.asics.com until Wednesday, Nov. 9 at 2:59 a.m. ET. While there are only 1,001 STEPN NFTs to be airdropped, there are no supply limitations for the physical sneakers as ASICS will only make as many as ordered. There are no order restrictions and pairs will ship globally.
Find Satoshi Lab (FSL), the company that founded popular move-to-earn platform STEPN, is creating a new multi-chain, subscription-based NFT marketplace called Mooar, The Block reported.
The new NFT marketplace, which originally launched on Solana and Ethereum, uses a "unique membership model" of $29.99 a month for unlimited NFT trades. This replaces the traditional marketplace fee that OpenSea, LooksRare, X2Y2, and other NFT marketplaces currently have.
Mooar will not replace creator royalties, which can be set anywhere between 0.5 and 10 percent, with a default setting of 2 percent. The royalties debate has been heating up over the last few months, with popular NFT platforms like LooksRare and Magic Eden experimenting with new models. Certain projects, like y00ts and DeGods, removed creator royalty fees entirely.
FSL's new marketplace will look to steal market share from the industry giant OpenSea, which has seen a notable decline in monthly total volume since earlier this year. It did $319 million in October 2022, down from $2.6 billion in April 2022.
It will also have its own launchpad for projects to create and distribute NFT collections.
“We deeply empathise with builders in the space and we want to empower those creators,” said Shiti Manghani, COO of FSL, in an interview with The Block. “We are fed up of centralized institutions and want to create a new paradigm. If we make systems that are biased against artists while championing decentralization, what’s the point?”
Mooar is the third platform created by FSL after STEPN and Dooar, a decentralized exchange protocol.
Find Satoshi Lab, the company behind the hit move-to-earn game STEPN, announced loyal STEPN members will soon earn additional benefits from the upcoming NFT marketplace - MOOAR.
MOOAR, which has not yet launched, will become the dedicated marketplace for STEPN NFTs, giving rise to additional uses for $GMT, the project's native token.
As of 9:00 a.m. ET today, users on STEPN who meet any of the following criteria will be eligible for distinct, exclusive rewards via the MOOAR platform:
- Genesis Sneaker owners
- Users who have run more than 1,500KM
- Users who have given out more than 50 STEPN activation codes
If you had achieved any of these items by the snapshot time, you should expect an email with further details about the potential benefits.
More information is expected to be shared in an upcoming Twitter Space on Tuesday, Nov. 1 at 6:00 a.m. ET.
The official winners of STEPN's STEPNEMBER 12,000 steps challenge have been announced. This is the second of four total challenges throughout the month of September.
