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.

Fabulous
August 4, 2018

Very easy and fun. I don't understand why there is an issue with earning bucks on trial stuff. Otherwise I enjoy it.

I've banked my Swagbucks over a decent amount of time and have gotten several gift cards as a result, all at least $50, but more often than not, around $100! I've never had an issue with it not getting to me. Recently, I contacted customer service regarding a shopping trip that I didn't receive credit for, despite the shopping trip being completed, and while I had to wait 32 days to see that it wasn't there, it was worth it because the person I dealt with was wonderful and very understanding. Sometimes stuff happens! One gripe I have is with SWAGO boards where certain squares are marked off for a big Swagbucks bonus (basically bingo), but there are almost always several that I cannot mark off, which gets very frustrating. Usually the main one is getting credit for a referral. That takes time to go through and not everyone wants to be hounded about joining this site (although it'd be good for them, obviously haha). Idk. Overall, I love this site and I'm happy to have benefited from it!

Very Good Program

Well worth my time. Great deals also. Easy to redeem the gift cards. Plan to do more surveys in order to earn more rewards. Not hard at all.

My only complaints are: 1) It seems like I am hardly ever rewarded for searching. 2) The site is so buggy. The nCrave will not work or I will put a lot of time into an offer then it doesn't credit. 3) Codes that show up as notifications on my phone and I have to enter in Swagbutton only. That is so irritating! If I don't have access to my personal computer within 1-2 hours, I miss out on those points.

Other than that, I love Swagbucks. There are so many ways to earn points! I love SwagIQ too. So fun!

Excellent Service!
August 3, 2018

I joined Swagbucks with the belief that it was fake and I would never see my money. I sure am glad I was wrong! To date, I've redeemed two gift cards that I earned from doing simple surveys, playing the bowling game, etc. I'm really happy I gave Swagbucks a try!

Good site
August 3, 2018

A lot of the time the surveys don't work so it takes a while to rack up swagbucks to get gift cards or other rewards, but it's great when you do.

More free and affordable offers could be offered up. More gaming offers could also be added. How about Swagbucks creating some of it's own surveys those would all be great because I've used Swagbucks for years now and have gone through almost every offer on the walls and rarely anything new. A refresh of offers would be greatly appreciated.

I don't really use swagbucks for taking surveys because I don't think the payout is worth my time, but I do like to activate it when I'm shopping online. It's just an extra bit of cash back in my pocket for everyday purchases.

This really is legit
August 2, 2018

I redeemed my first gift card for $25 paypal. Swagbucks is a good way to earn money, but when you do offers it takes about a month for you to receive credit.
