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 been using Swagbucks for years now, and have probably easily clocked a couple thousand in gift cards over the time. But I've also watched them cut back on some of the easier options, and their customer service has been getting slower to respond. For instance, at this moment over the course of the last 'Swago' promotion, they still owen me about $15, which I'm fairly certain I'll never see because it will be lost in their help desk shuffle.

I have received and used my gift card redeemed by earning swagbucks. I was eligible for about 1/4 of the many surveys available since I am unemployed. Product referral points from a purchase were the best value. Watching videos was the absolute worst ROI. It works, but you will work for it. I'd say good for extra $5 per month side hustle.

Swagbucks opens up the mind to new and fun surveys. It helps to keep me abreast to changes. The surveys deal with an array of subjects therefore never boring.

Not Worth it anymore
October 24, 2018

I deleted all the cookies and I even keep all my answers (pre- surveys questions) very consistent and they still say, "Please be honest" when I contested it, they un- banned me from the Gold Survey but I think they cap it now. I've noticed the surveys and videos that I easily earn points are no longer available to me.

Now I earn points thru shopping rebates. However, I go back and forth in between Ebates and Swagbucks to see who give me the most cash back percentage

Love Swagbucks!
October 24, 2018

I have been using Swagbucks for a very long time. I stopped for a few years because life just got busy and I forgot about it. I came back to it recently and I love all the new options to earn. Just got a $25 Walmart gift card and every little bit helps. I'm a single mom of three.

Fantastic
October 24, 2018

I try to use swagbucks everyday. I wish I could earn more sb but I'm pretty satisfied to what I get tgis time. It's a fantastic site to earn money or gift cards! The only down fall of swagbucks is it is so hard to do gold survey. I hate spending a lot of time doing the survey just to know that I'm not qualified. I feel like I already answered all the questions. Fir me it's a cheating. But overall I love sb. Thank you very much!

Not worth it anymore
October 23, 2018

In the past (around late 2017) it was possible to make at least $5-$10 a week but unless you're lucky swagbucks will rarely be rewarding now.

Their ncraves and offers are under some kind of new "traffic verification" and if you cross them in some known only to them way your earnings will be restricted to just the peanut labs surveys which have a high disqualification rate and the very slow swagbucks watch which require you to likely burn through your data cap for 2 cents.

Find a better site, abandon/ignore swagbucks.

I love earning free gift cards by doing things on Swagbucks. It's fun and most of the time it's easy. There are times when you waste time on surveys and discoveries that never payout and that sucks.
