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've used Swagbucks for almost a month now, and I love it. I'm making at most $10 a day doing surveys, watching videos, and playing games. With this I no longer have to go to an Amazon Cash place in order to put more money on my Amazon account. I can just earn enough points to get the Amazon cash I want. My only complaints is that the surveys don't typically pay out as much as intended and don't normally show on weekends (especially Sunday). And gift cards don't come quicker than expected, but from what I heard that can be remedied by reaching a certain rank on your member recognition board of which I have not recieved as of yet. Other than those things, I highly recommend Swagbucks to anyone who wants to make a quick dollar doing all of the things Swagbucks has.

Love Swagbucks! Hoping to soon have more time to really earn some serious points, but for now I just check in whenever I can and am thrilled to grab some points here and there. Thanks, Swagbucks!

I've made 55$ and redeemed it so far and have at least 80$ pending. It is a great site and would recommend it to anyone who has a little extra time

Some times a get an email that wants me to buy something. I can usually maneuver to the survey page and take as many surveys as I wish. Most days I get a survey to take. If I complete one I never get so see if my points were awarded. If I get kicked out of a few, sometimes you let me log into the survey page, sometimes not. I do not find any of the things you try to sell useful. I like taking your surveys and earning points.

Unfair site
May 6, 2019

I was with Swagbucks for at least 2 years and always provided honest answers and worked hard on many surveys for them. Now suddenly they have banned me from doing their Gold Surveys. They say I have violated one of their terms but they will not provide me any details - only that I am banned. VERY UNFAIR!

Takes time but for me it's worth it. They do need to fix some of their issues like things not crediting or shutting down.

I like being able to earn a few bucks while passing time. I do surveys the most when I'm bored. The only downside is on occasion I'll do a survey and at the end they say I didn't qualify and I don't get SB.

I was expecting low point redeem ability. Instead, what most of the offers will reward you is quite substantial! Hands down the only survey program I will ever use!

I have loved Swagbucks for over eight years and visit the website every day. That time has really paid off both in money and in fun. They continually think of new ways to engage their users and are SO helpful if an issue comes up. I can't recommend them highly enough.

It is a good website to get free gift cards, but it takes so long and can be frustrating. It does give you gift cards that work though. It took me 3 days to get a $5 Amazon gift card. And I was only on it for about 1-3 hours a day.

The only thing I would like is to either make the PayPal an instant transfer, or be able to transfer directly to my linked cards/accounts.
And maybe not hold Swagbucks rewards for 40+++ days after certain tasks?
Even without those details being addressed, it's a fantastic app, as long as you are using it for extra cash-not an income!

Swagbucks: Love it all... except the spammy emails from multiple companies (that share 4 addresses between at least 12 of them so far). I just unsubscribe and go on earning free money. My favorites are surveys and WATCH!
