Many users report frustration over not receiving compensation for completed surveys and feeling misled about earning potential.

Love Swagbucks as it is so easy to earn free stuff from doing what you are already doing and free stuff for trying things you already wanted to try.
Swagbucks is a way to earn free gift cards really easily. All you need to do is earn the currency, sb. Sb can be earned multiple ways: cash back from shopping, surveys (my favorite), watching videos, etc. Although all I have mostly done is surveys to earn my SB, you could use any of the methods to get your Sb. Once you get the required amount of SB, you redeem your prize. All you need to do is verify your account, verify your order, and then wait. But this is for your first order. Your second one, you don't have to verify your account. I have ordered 2 5$ iTunes gift cards so far, and one has came. I bought 400 Robux with it. But since arrival time can vary, I haven't received my 2nd one, but with my experience with my first one I am sure to use swagbucks more and more.
It's easy to do poll and watch videos to make some change every day. Most surveys for me don't work out. I try to get $5 or $10 a month.
I feel like the surveys could be better, but it works. Overall, it's a great app. I've Recieved two gift cards I think so far. It doesn't take forever for them to come.
I absolutely love Swagbucks. I think it's a awesome program. My only complaints are having to contact them in regards to rewards and show receipt of purchase or shipment. The other is the length of time it takes to receive your gift cards. However, this past gift card came within a couple days. That was awesome. One more complaint is trying to read the details of the reward before it moves to the website. Other than that. It's a fabulous program. Just needs them few things. Definitely recommend.
The surveys tell you the time needed, so you can choose the ones you had time for. I quickly earned my first 25.00 and got my PayPal transfer in a couple of days.
This site like many others of it's kind is a good way to earn some extra cash and gift cards. I still like to use it however it used to be a lot easier to earn $5.00 to $10.00 a day on it without ever having to take surveys. I miss the old days of clicking through the large amount of Encrave and Jungroup videos. It has basically gone the same route as the other rewards earning sites and now it's all about signing up for offers that only credit half of the time if that and surveys that we only qualify for about 25% of the time. In comparison to other sites it's about the same so it still gets a 5 star based on functionality and because at least the staff at swagbucks seem to care more about their members than other sites I've dealt with.
It takes too long to get the gift cards after ordering them. Also I tried become a member of a shaving club thing, never heard from the company. Swagbucks is good but not great!
Wish surveys weren't always looking to ask the same questions over and over. Maybe just have something that auto fills to help weed out a few
It's great to be rewarded for things you're doing anyway! I've gotten hundreds of dollars worth of gift cards just by searching and shopping like I normally would. It's easy and fun! :)
Very cool! But to many of the surveys kick u off. Most after a few questions! I don't like how u spend 25 minutes and receive only few sb. Redeem rewards are awesome.
This site has been so helpful as a second income and if you do the work, the rewards are so worth it.
Although I don't think you can make a lot, but it's good to have some bonus money by doing surveys in spare time.
It is a very helpful site. They help you earn some side money! It's kinda like a part time job, but super easy.
You will not get rich on Swagbucks, but it is a great thing to do in your spare time. I love that it offers Paypal redemptions as well. I've been using the site off and on for years and will continue to do so.
Starbucks is a good and honest way to make a little extra money. It may take awhile but the rewards are worth it. Swagbucks always pay on time through gift cards or paypal.
I have been using SwagBucks for the last one and a half year and in all this time, I've never had any problems with the service. Sometimes the incentives are awarded late (I took one star off because of this) but overall it's a very good service.
Definitely recommended
I love swagbucks and its the easiest way to earn free money. This went from something i did every other day to an every minute thing. Its addicting and def pays off in the end.
I am a retired senior and swagbucks is a good pass time for me, and it is full of a lot of tips.It also gives me gift card to walmart for my groceries and medicine. Thanks swagbucks for this web site that help me so much. Daisy Basconi
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
