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 $10 a day doing surveys, watching videos, and playing games. With this I no longer have to go to an Amazon Cash place in order to put more money on my Amazon account. I can just earn enough points to get the Amazon cash I want. My only complaints is that the surveys don't typically pay out as much as intended and don't normally show on weekends (especially Sunday). And gift cards don't come quicker than expected, but from what I heard that can be remedied by reaching a certain rank on your member recognition board of which I have not recieved as of yet. Other than those things, I highly recommend Swagbucks to anyone who wants to make a quick dollar doing all of the things Swagbucks has.
I totally can't get enough of this app and my girls love all the little extras that they are getting from my little gift cards
Very likely webpage i like to give my best thought relaeted to the website and hope the best in futures surving
Love Swagbucks! Hoping to soon have more time to really earn some serious points, but for now I just check in whenever I can and am thrilled to grab some points here and there. Thanks, Swagbucks!
I use swagbucks daily, my only issue is sometimes it will glitch and not give me the swagbucks i deserve and just reload to the home page
I've made 55$ 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.
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.
An easy way to get FREE giftcards starting at $3! Its things you already do on your phone so why not get free money for it?
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.
I joined Swagbucks recently and really like it. I find I am spending a lot of time on it. There are so many things to explore, that and making some extra income.
Love this app I did an entire baby shower with gift cards few min everyday and lots to choice I love love love love
What's better than having tons of different, interesting ways to earn gift cards on your spare time? I love it, and have used my giftcards for everything from an evening out to Christmas gifts.
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!
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
