How to Shake to collect daily sats?
To earn daily free Satoshi's (sats) via ShakingSats, follow these steps:
Open the Shakepay app and log in
Shake your phone while on the Shakepay home screen until you receive a pop up letting you know your shake was registered.
Open the app and shake your phone once each day to earn free sats and build your shaking streak! The more consecutive days you shake, the higher the amount of sats you will receive.
If you fail to shake your device on any calendar day before midnight EST, the next time you shake your device you will return to Day 1 of your streak.
You should be able to shake your device, as long as you are connected to the Internet!
What are the ShakingSats rewards?
ShakingSats rewards are broken into 2 tiers:
Active shaker 🚀
Active shaker earn more sats the longer they keep their streak alive. The minimum reward amount for an active shaker is 21 and the highest reward amount of 1000 sats is reached on day 1000 of your streak.
After day 1000, you continue earning 1000 sats as long as you remain active and keep the streak alive 🔥 (see the Rewards - Shakepay Legal table for more detailed information on rewards).
Inactive shakers earn a base reward amount of 21 sats.
To be an active shaker, you must use the Shakepay Card and exchange (buy or sell BTC/ETH) at least once within a 7 day period.
There is no separate minimum requirement for the transaction to be counted outside of Shakepay’s general transaction minimums.
Shakepay’s minimums are:
Selling 0.00001 BTC
Selling 0.015 ETH
Buying $1 of BTC or ETH
No minimum for card transactions
Inactive Stacker 😴
Inactive shakers earn 21 sats each time they shake, regardless of their streak length. As soon as an inactive shaker becomes active, they will receive the higher-tiered reward associated with their streak length.
Inactive Shaker vs. Lost Streak
Being an active shaker does not protect you from losing your streak. If you lose your streak while you're an active shaker, it will reset to 0. The next time you shake, you will start a new 1-day streak and receive the corresponding reward of 21 sats.

I lost my streak 😢
Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to reinstate lost streaks.
We know how devastating losing your streak can be so here are our top tips for keeping a streak alive:
Shake multiple times each day! If you shake and see the “Too much shakin” message you know that your shake registered for the day and you can rest easy until tomorrow.
After you shake, check your Shakepay BTC wallet to see that it registered and you earned your reward.
Update your 2FA method to an authenticator app to ensure you can log in, even without cell phone service. Note: you will still need an internet connection in order for a shake to be recorded
