Swagbucks Reviews Summary

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 don't try and kill myself to earn swagbucks but I do have fun doing so. It has helped my family with groceries and with 3 growing boys that means a lot. Thanks Swagbucks!

This is okay, but it can be time consuming to even get the smallest reward. Other than that, it is a way to get gift cards.

Very time consuming
July 27, 2017

I find that I have to take a lot of time out of my day to just earn a few swagbucks. Gift card selection is great! Wish there were more opportunities for surveys that weren't disqualified.

A lot of surveys don't apply to me and you get just a few pennies for it. The video watch is even worse, just 2 pennies for 10-15 min of video?

I like the discover/shop function best. You can buy things and get a gift card with a similar value back sometimes.

I love to use this site. I get points for searches, points for buying things I was already going to buy, and answering survey questions. It is easy to redeem points and there are lots of options. I usually get Amazon cards, because I buy a lot of things through them. Overall, pretty awesome!

Best way to make extra cash. I have tried many many sites and this is the easiest and fastest. I spend all of my time on this one site now rather than 5-6 different sites.

I love the site a lot, and am very happy to have a way to help aid my house. I do believe it could be better those. A lot of the times the videos do not work for me, regardless of me never spamming them, the surveys can be hard to complete (or can kick you right after you complete it for no reason, making you do the whole thing without any payout), and many of the samples never pay out.

That being said, I'm still happy to have a way to help my finances and beggers can't be picky.

What a waste of time. First off the videos take for ever to load so you are spending several minutes per video just waiting for it to start then you have to watch 20 videos so that really equates to about 30-40 minutes of your time to get 3 points (each 100 points is equivalent to $1). Secondly more often than not you don't qualify for the surveys but the kicker is that you spend 10-15 just filling out the pre-qualifier questions only to be turned down in many cases not receiving any points. The worst part is when I got enough points to receive a gift card (equivalent to $10) they deactivated my account for no reason. They sent no notification of the deactivation or notified me in any way so i spent numerous hours filling out surveys, watching videos, signing up for promotions only to get dropped in the end. Very very poor customer service and a horrible company if this is how they do business. I have read numerous other reviews that the company is notorious on just deactivating accounts for no reason. Buyer beware buyer beware.

The Best
July 25, 2017

The best site that I have dealt with in a long time. Building a business is not a bad idea, if anything it's the best idea that I have come up with in a long time.

Would recommend
July 24, 2017

I've used Swagbucks for about two years now, honestly everything is pretty straight forward once you get the hang of it. I'm a casual user though and I've made about $40-$50 using Swagbucks whenever I can. I'm not gonna lie, it is a lot of work and you won't make a lot but it is better than nothing and you still get paid on your free time.

I enjoy swagbucks because it is so easy to use and earn points. I can do as little or as much as I want, and my effort is easily tracked by how much I earn.

Its hard to earn a lot of swagbucks without spending a lot of your own money. I feel like that defeats the purpose of being on Swagbucks. I am not saving money if i am spending it
