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.

Free-money
July 13, 2018

Easy to use and easy to make a few extra dollars. I am not a heavy user of Swagbucks but I will continue to use it as long as it keeps the function flow quick and simple. And if they continue to give me money back on transactions with other stores.

Awesome and fun!
July 13, 2018

It is an excellent site! It is fun and rewarding. I personally enjoying doing the surveys. The surveys ate easy and they also making you think deep. I have studied deep mind ecology and Swagbucks understand the uniqueness of each person.

I am retired and living on Social Security. I use my free time to earn spending money and have fun at the same time. I am saving my Walmart gift cards to do my Christmas shopping.

Only one thing I enjoy Swagbucks and earning the points adding them up to earn reward, as the surveys goes many surveys sent in my email don't qualify so I find that annoying and frustrated and waste my time. Other than that Swagbucks is awsome

Try It, it pays
July 11, 2018

After having the app on my phone for months, I decided to try it out. It is easy to earn gift cards, just watch videos, search the web, or answer questions daily when it has them available. I've cashed out 5 times since April 2018 (I don't spend much time on it or it would have been more redemptions). The surveys are a bust, the majority disqualify you and you receive $1 for wasting your time. There are a lot of scams on Google Playstore, this isn't one of them. Try an app called S'more enter T2TMAW for bonus points. Rewards Stash is another paying app, enter 1RLV-9C36 for 1000 bonus points.

I love Swagbucks because the surveys are on point and the rewards DO NOT take a long time for you to receive them! Give more surveys that will offer reward cards.

Swagbucks

It pays to take surveys with swagbucks. I do at least 7 or 8 a week. This is a great way to make extra money to pay bills or save for the future.

I have used Swagbucks for several years. I do the poll every day since it only takes a minute. If I have more time, I try other things. You can print coupons, which earn you points when used. I find it hard to qualify for surveys, but I try if I have time. I have turned in points for Paypal money several times & they pay pretty quickly. I will keep using this site.

I often only get one point to find out I'm not actually eligible for the surveys. The online shopping points are great, though!

I shop online all the time, and I get rewarded for it by swagbucks. How awesome is that?! I get rewarded for doing something that I do anyway. Those gift cards that you get come in super handy sometimes, and as if giving point for doing things you already do isn't enough, the gift cards that you turn you points in for go on sale! I cannot tell enough people about this site.

I use Swagbucks at least once a week and like the videos. The surveys could be a little easier to qualify for or have a variety that is more interesting.

I only joined a couple months ago but so far, it seems to provide a reasonable gain for the time I've spent. Better, certainly, than some of the survey sites I've used. I've redeemed twice already for $25 gift cards and both times they were delivered within a few days, with no problems. I tried the search engine, but didn't like it since seems to give mostly shopping-related results and much of my internet searching is for informational rather than purchasing purposes. But even without using the search engine, I still earn Swagbucks at a decent rate.

The Best!
July 11, 2018

I just recently came back to the "get paid to" world, after being away from it for many years. A lot has changed! Discovering Swagbucks has been amazing! Although there are a few little spots that definitely need some spit and polish, this gem still shines far brighter than the others I have tried. Loving it!
