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 love Swagbucks so very much. I am on there at least 6 hours a day. I love earning thru so many ways. Love Swagbucks, so happy I found it 4 years back.
GREAT SITE ENJOY SURVEYS AND GAMES. LOTS OF GREAT THINGS TO DO LOTS OF GIFT CARDS. I ENJOY VERY MUCH
I'm on a fixed income, and I simply would not be able to afford even groceries without the money I earn on Swagbucks. I have been a member for more than four years now, and I have never had any of the negative experiences that a few individuals recently posted here. When there have been those rare problems, though, I have always been able to resolve them quickly and easily, with a full refund of any points that I may have been denied. I love Swagbucks and would happily recommend them to anyone.
Pretty easy to earn points. They always pay. I've redeemed quite a few gift cards from them. The few times I wasn't credited for something I explained the problem and they fixed it right away.
I love Swagbucks most of the time. I wish they would credit more because I hate to bother them with help tickets.
I really enjoy the experience I've had earning with swagbucks. Doing the surveys, watching videos and shopping through swagbucks helps me pay for Christmas presents each year.
Perfect app. Gives me lots of rewards. Always helpful to identify best product with great deals. It's really awesome.
Used to go one often daily, and recieve alot of swag bucks and rewards with recent updates the videos are horrible no longer 5 videos for credit more like 20. My daily 6 tasks i can never complete because encrave never loads any mroe so im always missing out of continuation rewards. Over all i went from daily use to going on before i amazon shop so my amazon purchase can give me credit back. And the birthday rewards they gave were awesome now its not points its something else and their is i big emphase on their swag iq app which take alot of memory on my phone just to be played at a certain time during their time zone that i still am never up for.
I like the idea of surveys and participate regularly. The overall appearance of the site is okay. Site is slow and can crash at times, especially when viewing videos. A few times a survey will kick you out and not reward the promised points. I'm making about $50 per month and hope to increase that in the future. Overall I am happy with Swagbucks, but there is room for improvement (security matters).
Awesome place to go if you have the extra time. Well worth the visit. I have been using Swagbucks for years now and it has really came in handy on the giftcards. I do not go a day without getting on there...
So far, this is only the SECOND awards site that has paid out ANYTHING! I was able to obtain a $10 Visa card in about three weeks - and that is from using the application VERY casually...
I only started using Swagbucks 2 weeks ago and I already got $140 worth of gift cards! Sweet! I was quite not sure if it's real but once I started getting SB rewards and then redeemed them, I got the hang of it! Now I always activate SB whenever I purchase online!
The absolute best reward program. Points are easy to accumulate & there are so many different ways to earn.
I love the daily poll and vote most every day. I love answering the shorter surveys and watch my points build.
Great time doing surveys. To make money and it's easy to do when I'm watching tv. Its a great way to save money as well my sister buys her school books while I use it for a cheap date dinner night with my husband.
It has a wide variety of uses, besides being entertaining, it offers an advantage of earning extra money while performing tasks.
Swagbucks is a great site with informative videos, discount deals and interesting surveys and much, much more...
It is a good way to earn extra money and they make payments quickly.
I enjoy this site very much and I am sure you will enjoy your experience with them as well.
Give it a try. You have nothing to lose, but to gain.
I am really glad I started using SB. It is easy to use, you earn SB quickly and easily. I use it everyday.
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
