I love this company. I have always gotten paid on time. I have been loyal to Swagbucks for 10 years.
This site is great. Easy way to make money for holidays and birthdays, gifts, etc. Frustrated with their help desk. Too many emails back and forth and still not able to redeem my swagbucks due to a simple problem of someone not including the token link in the email they sent me to redeem my swagbucks visa. Been working on this issue since August 2018 and still not fixed
Frustrated with the tracking issues and SB's not awarded
Because of these issues! My Stance order did not track 500SB, Dollar Shave 2nd
Month incentive 1500 SB, SouthBeach 4000 SB and NOW my NutriSystem ******* SB did
Not track, yet I click from the SB link and follow the instructions. That's
$210! I am canceling today with complaints about FALSE incentive rewards my
Dollar Shave (had 8 months), SouthBeach (joined 2/20/18) and NutriSystem
(joined 7/21/18 my husband split both programs the past months for dieting) It
Is misleading offering SB incentives and never giving the rewards.
It used to pay better but they don't like to pay very well. This site is difficult to use at times Hangs up and videos are allowed in your area for some reason?
I always am shopping online and using Swagbucks helps me to get cash back on my purchases that I am making. I am very grateful for finding out about this site.
I have been doing Swagbucks for a few months now. I've been earning points to purchase Visa cards to use on our cruise. Thanks Swagbucks
Swagbucks is awesome. I've earned over $1000 being with them. They are really awesome. Swagbucks is the best rewards site by a mile.
I have been doing Swagbucks for over 10 years on a semi regular basis the entire time. They are legit, and I have enjoyed the extra dollars I make, but I do find that I take more time doing it than I used to with less results
I am using swagbucks to buy diapers and supplies for my twin boys that are due soon. This is a fun and easy way to help out with fundz.
Before I use to be able to get sb points fast and now I feel like it takes forever to get points now. I still like it but I think it should be a little easier to get points
I enjoy it but have been frustrated that things don't always credit. Especially the discover items. Ivam currently being shorted on mybswaggo board for my gift card I ordered.
Because of Swagbucks, my husband and I are able to bring our financial ends closer. When he gets off work, he learned to watch videos and I handle the surveys and searches.
I like how it doesn't take long to earn points to redeem for gift cards. It has helped me buy my essentials like my toilet paper and laundry detergent.
Takes a long time to get but is worth
Keep investing your earn money back to Swagbucks and earn
Be Patient
Easy to earn rewards easy surveys as long as you answer truthfully you will be rewarded gift cards what could be better you can also earn swag points for shopping awesome customer service
Swagbucks works. You can earn points and you do get rewards. You do have to be patient, and put some time into the project. Don't expect to be able to redeem points right away, but take a few surveys day, and it will all add up to a nice reward. Take the trouble to read what they are asking, it will help you. Don't try to rush the surveys, just take your time and do what they ask.
The point seem to add up quickly. A fun way to obtain extra spending money. I just redeemed points for a $25 VISA gift card. Looking forward to spending it.
I would've given a little better review, but lately a lot of the site has gone mobile. It's still a great way to earn gift cards. I use the gift cards for birthdays and Christmas gifts.
I use Swagbucks to save up a little money here and there to buy things I want. I usually cash out a $25 gift card about once a month.
I love using Swagbucks everyday super easy to get points. And the redeeming of points is easy. The payout to get the gift cards is quick.
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
