I use Swagbucks almost daily to earn money. There are so many ways to earn including offers, shopping, surveys, just simply snapping a picture of receipts and even a live trivia game. Swagbucks actually pays it's users within the time frame they tell you and you can choose Paypal, Store gift cards, Visa gift cards, Aspiration and more! The app itself is pretty user friendly and not hard to navigate. Customer service is great and any issue is fixed quickly.

Worth the time!
December 12, 2018

Swagbucks is definitely worth the time. I have earned over $100 since I've started using it! It definitely takes a while to rack up a $50-100 gift card, but using their chrome extension for searches everyday racks up points pretty quickly. Would definitely recommend, especially if you want to save on some holiday shopping in the near future!

The Best Online Job
July 14, 2017

Ive tried out many survey websites but none of them compare to Swagbucks. They're awesome. If I ever have an issue their support team is quick to resolve the issue. They are legit and honest and stay up to date daily.

Swagbuck User
December 13, 2019

I have used swagbucks for years and have been very happy until about a month ago. Not sure if they hired new people or what but now when I contact customer service they never get back to you regarding missing swagbucks

Awesome!
May 15, 2018

I really love these gift cards because they offer such a large variety to chose from. You can keep them for yourself or donate them... what a wonderful choice! And it's all from doing something you would normally do anyway... SHOP!

I love the rewards
May 14, 2018

The rewards at swagbucks are awesome because they offer giftcards to stores I normally shop at. It does take forever to build up enough credit, though. Sometimes the surveys and links sends me to sketchy websites, but overall a good experience.

12 + hours a day for maybe $3. That's what it comes down to. Half the videos don't credit. Surveys don't credit or you're DQ after completion. Poor site staff that lie to save pennies. Minimum daily goals have increased. They do pay if and when you can cash out. It was a great site to make some extra money. Now, just a typical American scam site. But they do pay.

Clever Ripoff Site
October 17, 2016

I had good luck with Swagbucks for a very long time but it seems their ploy is to set you up and get your confidence and then rip you off. On October 7 I verified a $25 Paypal payment which they claimed was sent to me October 10. But I never received it and my customer service inquiries were ignored. I have another $25 coming that I'm guessing they will scam me out of as well and have stopped using the site.

Reliable
August 19, 2017

Its really nice to earn a small amount of extra cash on the side especially for a poor student like me. I just started like three weeks ago and got a 25$ visa card online which I spent with no issues.

Like any other survey site its mostly composed of ads and quizzes. The ads can be a bit too numerous though and when I'm being prompted to click on them before redeeming SB its too misleading. Also, screen your content a bit better. Some are clearly scams and that should not be around here of all places. Otherwise, I enjoy answering questions and earning gift cards. Be honest with your answers!

Good site
February 28, 2019

I just wish there were more options on what to get. Great overall experience with the entire site. The app is a little more difficult to use then the desktop site. Maybe that is by design. However I find that true with most websites. I don't downgrade the site in any way because of this. I did have some trouble getting points that should have been given. I feel it's not worth the hassle to go and try to recover them. I also had a slight problem with surveys letting you get deep into them and then saying it was not a qualification. Even though many minutes had already been spent answering questions well beyond the qualification questions.

I've been using Swagbucks regularly taking survey for about 2.5 years now and I've seen much improvements in the site overall and the survey having less errors. They have been exceptional is their response to me in a very quick manner (usually less than an hour) when I've had issues with survey errors and corrected my account accordingly. I would recommend them if you enjoy taking surveys. Swagbucks Live trivia game in the evening for 10 minutes can be fun as well.

SWAGTASTIC!
October 13, 2019

Such an easy thing to do - such a positive way to earn gift cards or money! Anyone can do this if you do computers every day! I have Swagbucks set up as my browser so it's being used no matter what i'm doing - busy one day- slow the next but earning 'bucks' every day. For three years - not paid for one Christmas gift, not paid for one garden item or plant, love keeping walmart ones in my 'stash' in case i run short of food money sometime. These ALL come in handy!

Ripoff
April 18, 2018

Even after i earned my credit and sent them the proof they say im not eligible for the credit. Dont waste your time. Im always getting kicked out of surveys one day i went through 35 surveys in an hour. You do the survey for maybe 5 min then its says its filled up. Whats that? Stay away.

I do surveys via the app, and while some in don't qualify for(not a problem, as that's how surveys work), ones indo qualify for have what seems to be a 50/50 shot of freezing, making it impossible to proceed. Very frustrating

Overall great!
November 22, 2017

Minor frustrations here and there, not qualifying for multiple surveys, videos suddenly not being available, but the frustrations are small compared to what's received! Would love more discovery options!

I enjoy using Swagbucks for the most part to help supplement my income. I do have one request, that being that gift cards are made instantaneously available like other rewards sits (Microsoft Rewards) instead of waiting up to 10 business days.

Great place
December 1, 2017

I wish the points are worth more, it takes a long time to collect, the daily poll should be at least 5 or 10 points but its only 1 point, the search is my favorite because I get some points, surveys are tricky not all of them rewards you, sometimes half way done and they send you back for a reason like we have had enough participants and you waste time and get nothing.

I love swagbucks
June 2, 2019

Swagbucks is the best money making app because of how much you can get in a day! Of course not enough pay for a job but. For young people that don't have jobs this comes in so handy. Definitely would recommend

Kind of like work
June 2, 2019

Not bad but takes some time to get enough credits to redeem. Many of the surveys kick you out fast. Guess I'm not the right demographic for them. Fun at times though and occasionally I get through a hundred point survey.
