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.

Surveys and video watching are slow going, but the Sb I get back from shopping at my favorite stores and the rewards you receive for giving to great charities are rewarding. If you shop online, then go through swagbucks to see if your store is sponsored by swagbucks.
As a senior citizen this is a great way for me to get things I would normally pass on. I have lots of time on my hands and Swagbucks helps me fill some of the hours I have.
It does just what it says. Allows you to earn points to redeem for gift cards. It takes a real time commitment to earn much, but I spend about an 1/2 hour a day on it and can get 5 or 10 dollars a month. Better than nothing with spare time.
I was unhappily retired and missing my extra income. Happy to have found Swagbucks through my trusted AARP. When I first joined, I got points doing surveys & watching short videos but then the novelty wore off {:>( Now, I mostly get sb's from online shopping & free swag codes. I found turning reward points into store gift cards a treat because there's always an excuse to buy something for my Grandson.
I've tried a few survey sites but Swagbucks has proven to be the site that has given the best returns. I don't qualify for every survey but there are enough to make it worthwhile. Some of the surveys are a little hard to understand but I do my best. I only wish that my generic info could be entered once and not have to re-enter for most surveys... my zip code, age, dob and such really doesn't change.
I am so happy with swagbucks. Swagbucks is on of the best survey site. Swagbucks support is so friendly and quickly. Thank You Swagbucks
I participate in SwagBucks daily. It's a fun way to earn Points called SB that so can trade in for gift cards and other things.
I have earned over $600 in gift cards using Swagbucks. It has helped me pay for Christmas gifts and so much more. I highly recommend trying them.
I love Swagbucks! I have earned numerous gift cards to some of my favorite restaurants. I also qualify for most surveys.
I like how easy it is to use. The only issue I have with it is I love to learn so am always searching for something but my continuous use of the search engine overwhelms it and it keeps telling me not to search so much so I had to switch to a different search engine.
I have been using swagbucks for some time and absolutely love the rewards. I'm on the site daily and, yes, it does take time for the rewards to add up, but ultimately it's worth the wait. No, you're not going to make tons of money but the payouts I get really come in handy when something unexpected comes up or for holiday shopping.
It's super easy to use and enables to make a little cash on the side. Amazon gift cards are the best.
Love swagbucks, easy to use and pays out quick. I like how I can almost always find a survey and there's multiple ways to cash out for gift cards.
Had taken on surveys several weeks from now and its not only on the rewards side I had positive experience. I am also learning from the questions and noting things mentioned in the surveys worth considering and doing perhaps when opportunity presents itself. Its educational!
Great way to make a little extra and do it from home. Sometimes a little fustrating but normally issues are dealt with in a timely manner. Some days it is harder to earn to make goal but normally it is pretty good.
Many ways to get rewards, Can earn rewards or cash. Surveys are easy enough and a good way to make extra money.
Earning a little extra spending money is so easy! It is really fun to complete the surveys. Thank you!
Surveys close too fast and iwould like more surveys with bigger incentives. I am able to do the longer surveys just as long as i don't have to be rushed into completing them. Surveys with bigger incentives would be a plus as long as i qualify to do them.
I use SB for extra money for Gifts. Swagbucks is fun and easy to use. It's not a replacement for a full time job. However you will enjoy the extra dollars you will make while having fun.
I love this site I use it every day I always make purchases through swagbucks because I get cas back it's great
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
