Love getting gift cards from Swagbucks. It's easy, fun and free. You can earn free gift cards for doing surveys, watching videosand much more. They also try their best to resolve any issues.
It is a great way to get some extra cash. I use it for amazon gift cards and buy my christmas toys from there.
I like the surveys. It's an easy way to relax and to earn swagbucks. I really enjoy taking the daily poll and getting used to shopping and earning swagbucks as well. It's a fun way to earn christmas money.
I really like this app, it takes a while at first to get the hang of it but I have onl been using it for a little over a month and have earned $75
I enjoy doing the surveys that are given. The rewards that are given for completing the surveys are awesome. I would suggest this survey app over any i have ever come across.
Lots of emails. Lots of surveys i don't qualify for. Tough to get enough credits. :| I check the emails every other week and feel like i am drowning. Want survey invites to be targeted to users better.
I've been using this site every day for over a year. There hasn't been a day that I haven't made money. It's easy to use and pays enough that I will have enough for my kid's Christmas gifts. A real treasure of a site.

I would like a section for easy, moderate or harder swag points. Sometimes knowing I'm going on and not making any progress is discouraging. I would want to compare it to a play and win so you are guaranteed a minimum points when you play.
I enjoy swagbucks to the fullest. I am a very dedicated user. I have purchased few things well with my swagbucks earnings, for the record I would never trade swagbucks for anything
Swagbucks keeps making it more and more difficult to earn anything substantial. They keep reducing what offers are worth and even the surveys can be quite difficult to qualify for and complete to where you get what you are promised. The apps are almost worthless now as they have reduced the earning potential while claiming they were making it better for everyone. Such crap. I still use it everyday just for a little something extra but don't count on it if you're in desperate need of money.
I use to be able to make twice as many points each day than I can now. I am also very frustrated with my surveys saying complete and not crediting.
Offers don't credit.
Surveys don't credit.
Surveys DQ after you complete it.
Support threatens to ban you when you submit tickets because their offers don't credit.
I know there are scams out there about "free gift cards" but Swagbucks is the real deal. I prefer using the Discover section beause you get a deal and SB back as well as the cashback on shopping. 1 SB = $0.01. It may take time to get the SB and there are a few issues sometimes with rewarding in SB but definitely screenshot everything you do so that you get credited through support (I did so and got the 600 SB/ $6 I was owed).
Easy way to earn a few extra dollars. It has a fun side too, with plenty of games to enjoy. You can even get paid for downloading and/or playing games!
Free easy money just takes a few mins to earn this is how I pay to play some of my games so I don't have to use my money
Started out great, and finally got enough to get a gift card. A day goes by after buying the gift card with my swag bucks, and all of a sudden my account was deactivated. Tried to contact the support but nope, nothing, nada. They would not answer me anymore after one email claiming that I was a robot (what?), and wouldn't give my account back nor the gift card. Waste of my time and will never fall for these again. Scam.
I pay for many holidays with Swagbucks! It is the best site I have found to make money on surveys.
I use Swagbucks to buy Christmas gifts, it really make my life a lot easier this way. And, i don't end up with a ton of credit card debt because of it. The only thing I don't like about Swagbucks is, sometimes I spend 8 to 12 hours a day just to get my daily goals!
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
