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.

Swagbucks is cool, fun I enjoy completing surveys, but is does take too long to earn, The surveys need to be better, it will say 10mins but actually much longer and if you spend 20 mins on a survey they should just give you 3SB for wasting your time, if your disqualified or it goes over the said time.
Quick fast painless and fun. Very enjoyable. Would highly recommend and use again I can't wait to earn more
Love Swagbucks have made $500.00 this year so far looking forward to earning more thanks Swagbucks keep up the good work
Swagbucks is user friendly. I enjoy using it. I wish there were more ways to earn though. I can only seem to make about 40 bucks a month and I'd like to be making much more. Overall a wonderful experience.
So easy to make extra money even if it is just
When waiting 5 minutes for an appointment or while making dinner. It is so easy and helps pay for food and fun for my family!
To date, I've been able to earn over $1,100 doing swagbucks since sept 2016. I only spend if I want to, but I haven't had to spend anything to earn over $100 in giftcards this month!
Easiest way i have. Ever earned money. Interesting and anyone can do it. I have earned and redeemed for gift cards and alot of my friends and family also use swagbucks. Easy fun interesting and its free what more could you want
I absolutely love it's the best one yet that I've tried challenging at times but worth it is would definitely recommend it to a friend
Swagbucks is fun and easy to use and figure out. The stores they use are very well known stores and they give us great deals!
I've been a long time user and like swagbucks well enough for the most part but get frustrated when I spend my time on tasks that don't credit and used to get much more resolution than I do now.
I've tried all the sites and never got anywhere until Swagbucks. I casually swag just when I want extra cash for things I can't usually afford and in 2 years I've easily made over $500. Just don't give up til you get the hang of it.
I love swagbucks! It has been something that is fun to do while at work and at home! My wife recommended it to me and now I'm hooked and trying to get my friends into it!
Lots of fun I enjoy the swagboard. Watch videos and completing surveys playing games. There is so much to do it's great. Also great stuff to redeem points for
Overall I'm happy with the site, but I have the following legitimate complaints: I completed the Neverwinter offer for 300SB, but never received my SB. I wish I had known that my SB Local offer on the Swago card wouldn't reimburse in time, but I didn't see the little "i" with the guidelines until middle of the week -- even though I searched the SB Local app for any pitfalls I should be aware of (none found). One of my referrals has been making SB on valid offers that I should be making a percentage of for over a week now, but I've ONLY EARNED 1SB through them -- Is there a delay? I can't find info on this in the FAQ/help section! I can't even submit help desk tickets because apparently my email address has been suspended from submitting help tickets. And lastly, you post surveys that suggest times that (regardless of the possible lucky responses or survey hacks) are impossible to achieve!
It is extremely easy to earn cash doing what I usually do anyway. From searching for my usual questions, to doing surveys, random offers, and even surveys, it's extremely easy to earn.
There are so many ways to make a decent amount of change add up. The biggest being spend money to make money, honestly. When it's within your regular buying needs it's a nice bonus. Some of the SB deals, such as Dollar Shave Club worked out very well for me. Videos & Daily Crave do have some cool stuff, although I prefer the mobile for the movie trailers. A few of the app a day items are pretty awful, so I can't recommend those. Mobile game apps can be worth it if you are willing to play a few levels.The Gold surveys can be very time consuming & the estimated time is not accurate. Be prepared to get well into the survey process and not finish because they've reached the limit. Peanut Lab surveys are usually good though. Swag codes, email SB, Sb for web searches can add up nicely. The redeeming process takes a few steps, but it's not bad considering you can opt for PayPal and other useful payouts. I've had a pretty good experience so far, especially considered the other types of sites I've looked into.
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
