Swagbucks presents a mixed reputation among its users, with some customers appreciating the variety of ways to earn rewards, such as surveys and games. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding account deactivations, unresponsive customer service, and delayed payouts. Many users report frustration over not receiving compensation for completed surveys and feeling misled about earning potential. The overall sentiment leans towards dissatisfaction, with a notable number of users warning others against investing time in the platform due to perceived scams and inadequate support. This suggests a pressing need for the company to enhance its customer service and reliability.

I've redeemed some awesome deals from Swagbucks but sometimes things don't credit as they should. Luckily the support team is quick to fix the issues and provide the credit but it is an extra hassle. I also wish some of the offers were vetted a little better since some seem like scams or will flood your inbox if you sign-up. All in all though I'd give Swagbucks 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Love earning points for free giftcards! You can earn points by watching videos and signing up for things, its too easy!
The key to earning is regular activity and participation. If you shop then it makes sense to save money when you shop. Swagbucks is a way to lower costs of buying online. Plus you earn by completing surveys, watching videos, installing apps and more. I have done all these things easily with a computer. It is best to have both a computer and phone with Swagbucks.
If you are phone only, best earnings are with shopping cash back.
Plus take care to avoid online scams and phishing which appear to be the causes of reported lost money. Any offer that appears to be from Swagbucks and asks you do something that the company really does not do, that is phishing and nothing to do with Swagbucks but someone using Swagbucks name and taking advantage of those not informed of online scams. Online security is your responsibility. Be informed and don't respond to shady email offers. Swagbucks does not send you emails to send checks. The company is not "swag bucks llc". Swagbucks is registered as "Prodege LLC".
Swagbucks is a good program that pays those who are most active and smart bargain hunters and shoppers. If you don't like viewing ads or don't have time for tasks, then maybe it's not for you. But there are regular and avid members who do use Swagbucks daily.
I pay less for hotel stays, pay for rewards cards at a discount and save when shopping. Those savings add up to better money management at home.
When I was very low income, I used Swagbucks earnings to redeem for PayPal deposits. I used that money to buy gas and meals when I worked a contract job for 8 weeks. That $25 made such a difference between going to work or not going to work that I thank Swagbucks for helping me back in 2015.
First photo is some of the ways you can redeem your rewards. Sometimes cards are sold at discounts. Last purchase was $100 VISA gift card. Some people are very skilled with these sites and know how to avoid email based scams. I have desktop computer and Android Smartphone. Second photo is view of reward earning history. One is hotel stay reward.
It's an easy way to earn money for free gift cards. Gift cards can then be turned in to use pretty much anywhere you choose
I like to watch the technology for info and the new things that are out there and the home-garden for info.
Swagbucks is the most lucrative and easiest of all the survey and make money websites that I use; and I use a lot!
Good extra way of earning but surveys don't pay enough. Late disqualifications. Some occassions answered all questions and didn't get compensated.
Swagbucks is great for getting money back. Especially if used for shopping and search. It can, however, become addictive and time consuming if you get caught up in the advertising and 3rd party things so you must exercise caution.
I use it for shop and earn. It's hard to wuilift for surveys and get other things to credit. It gets harder the longer your a member
There is no better way to earn gift cards. Watch videos, do surveys, take opportunities, or shop. Up to you but you earn fast and free gift cards. I love Swag bucks.
I love getting these and I love how fast they come in. I love that I can also use them on most things. Like Amazon, facebook, paypal, and more. Helps out when you are wanting things and if you put the time in you really do get the money as a gift card. I like that swagbucks is not a fake site and yeah it takes time but it is so so so worth it. When you have no job yet just work on the surveys it allows you to make some extra money to get things you want and need. Really good site and i have nothing bad to say about it.
It's alright. Its better then apps like applike or whatever, so I'm happy with it. It says to submit one hundred charecters, so Im just filling it up with letters that make words
A very fun way to earn money i love taking surveys, doing offers and shopping via swagbucks the swagos are also pretty cool becuase i get to earn some easy sb for things like completing my daily list i have been able to buy things like a nintendo switch and 13 games for it if it werent for swagbucks i probably couldnt have done that and im thankful i 100% recommend swagbucks its legit and im beyond happy to be a swagbucks member :)
I've asked for help a few times and got generic responses. Ive asked for help getting access restores to Ncrave with bo resolve. Ive stopped using swagbucks as a result and eith changing internet providers.
Swagbucks is a fun site that offers many ways to earn rewards. It has surveys, videos, polls and rewards for shopping so there is a lot to do.
I was skeptical at the idea of getting paid to do what I do online any ways, but one day I decided to just give it a try. It was just as easy as promised and I have earned at least $50 in gift cards in the last year. Maybe not a ton of money, but $50 more than I would have had. I get the Amazon gift cards which are great as I shop there at least 2-4x a month. Seriously, this is a for real deal and you can make a bit of extra spending money easy peasy...
Just wish I could do more from my smartphone app. I have collected around $100 from swagbucks for Amazon.
I enjoy using Swagbucks, I think some of the videos you watch should be worth more Swagbucks based off the time you have to watch. Sometimes it feels like it takes forever to earn the points.
Great site for making extra money or gift cards, lots to do and have always been paid when I complete offers right.
Answer: They are definately legit been a member for many years and have earned over 70,000 swagbucks been paid many times with no problems also use there swagbutton with no problems
Answer: It is real cash, since you can have the payment through PayPal or Visa cards. They're not going to just deposit into a bank account.
Answer: Each point is a penny. So if you want a $5 gift card you need 500 Swagbucks. My only recommendation is don't get the Visa cards. All other cards work easily online or in store. Visa never seems to be accepted anywhere.
Answer: No, it won't steal your personal data. It's perfectly safe.
Answer: Got to $28 rather quick but the next $2 i need to cash out IS TAKING FOREVER!
Answer: You need to earn swagbucks to get a gift card. As few as 300-500 swagbucks will get you a gift card (worth $3 - $5). Better gift cards are available for more swagbucks.
Answer: Either way. Some gift cards are physical cards and are mailed and some are online.
Answer: "... the page disappeared..."? If this is about getting a bonus for using the Search function, the page doesn't disappear; it sits there until you move off it. A couple times, I have moved off a page before realizing there was a Search bonus. I hit the Back button on my browser & input the code, no problem. Of course, if you don't respond in a timely manner, the bonus expires. (I think it's around 3 minutes, but I'm not certain.) Also, if you input a non-matching code, you'll get a new code, but only 2x (3 chances in total). Are you maybe talking about a SwagCode? That's a bonus that appears on an otherwise normal page. And again the page doesn't disappear. If you take too long, you get an expired notice in the SwagCode box, but the page remains.
Answer: Many giftcards are sent electronically. Some are within a few hours, others can take a few days. How well they pay depends on which activity you're referring to and also how much time and effort you devote to earning. Some activities are USELESS, like watching videos - you watch 15 30-second videos and are only paid 2SB, the equivalent of 2¢. For 7.5mins, that's asinine! However, some of the activities, like the surveys, in-store shopping/receipt upload and games (such as Swago) can offer a great bonus here and there.
Answer: You never get paid from there discovery items, huge scam
