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.

This app is super easy to use. And the rewards really rack up. I get Amazon gift cards to use and love it
Wish I would qualify for more surveys but great so far! I still get 1 swagbuck even if I don't qualify!
Surveys are easy to do and making sb is pretty easy. Cashing is different amounts sound pretty well deal than just for one lowest pay.
I really do enjoy using it! Gives me a little side cash! I wish that the video earnings were a little higher and the site likes to crash or freeze sometimes.
This site provides great ways to earn some points and gift cards from anywhere. I did not believe this was real until I actually started using Swagbucks! I am so grateful to the person who told me about this cool opportunity! An overall great experience and I would definitely recommend to everyone.
I like doing the surveys but most of the time I get kicked from them and it wastes my time because I only get like 1 sb.
I have been with Swagbuck's for a few years and I also believe that it is a good company that pays people for for answering surveys etc. While most of us, can and need to improve ourselves, most company's need improving as well. But personally I have no complants.
Started site years ago, think was 2008 - was member in good standing for many years - then one day - told "did not like taking surveys" and learned was banned from taking Gold surveys - now lucky to make $75 in one year - shows my desperation of financial need - that I stay - though hardly any way to earn - will never understand why this happened and why this cannot be corrected - really don't deserve this treatment - it hurts in multiple ways -
Swagbucks is an easy way to earn some decent pocket money. I've gotten cash back from certain online purchases, and well as done some of their "discover" things where you buy something for, say, $5, and you get, say, $7 cash back. Therefore, you getting something for free PLUS earning a little bit of money. I've already cashed out my money a couple times with Paypal gift cards, which I can then transfer to my bank account.
I enjoy Swagbucks! It is a fun way to earn a few extra dollars. I have not had a problem with redeeming my points for gift cards.
I use the search all of the time, but a lot of the other activities do not always work. Every now and then, I will do a survey. I mostly do not qualify so I take the couple swagbucks for trying. I usually get enough for one gift card every couple of months. Great for providing extra ebooks to read.
Only having an iPad, it takes me longer to earn.
The surveys are really hard to get. They put me through 10 minutes of questions, then say I don't qualify. Very frustrating.
I've had a great time taking surveys and earning cash back on purchases online! It's easy to use. Points rack up so quickly, which makes getting gift cards so much easier!
When I first joined, I was very happy with the amount of surveys I was able to take, often more than I could during my visits. I don't particularly care for the other methods of earning, so I only do surveys. However, now I very rarely see surveys when I log on. There are some, but I would prefer to see more. However, Swagbucks is a very legitimate and good way to make money!
I am glad that there have been more Watchviddeos, Jungroup videos and Ncrave than there have been in the last weeks. Pls keep that up and I wish there were more of those. IT seems like SB is concentrating on "SB live" more than the other things on SB. I love the contests like swago and team contests. I have been waiting for payment on a survey that was done weeks ago and the msg I keep getting from SB is to just wait for the co to send the SB - but it has been about a month and I keep getting the same answer from SB. SB should be responsible for co's not paying out like they should and not answering customers.
Swagbucks makes it easy to earn a little extra... no matter what you redeem for you can help pay for clothes, fun or bills.
A lot of the surveys I don't seem to qualify for. I must've started at least 300 surveys and I maybe qualify for 1/8 of that. And some of them I almost completed the survey and it said oops, survey is filled. Another thing is the survey number is hard to track when you start it because the page you clicked to get to the survey is gone.
I've been a user of Swagbucks for just a few weeks now, and its been greatly enjoyable. I put some hours in daily as time allows, and I've racked up the points and already was awarded with some gift cards. Its fun, and I recommend to anybody that's interested into looking into it. You might really enjoy yourself and there are some surprised as well!
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
