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.

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 submitted for my first gift card and it never came. When I emailed the company I didn't get anywhere. Waste of time and effort. I will be trying another sire
Swagbucks has replaced my video addiction. I am addicted to surveys! I was so excited to get my first gift card. So far I have had a great experience.
I have always redeem my SB points without problems. It's an extra money, and I like the offers that they do.
I need some extra cash on the side for medical bills, so being able to take surveys and cash in points for gift card rewards has been a lifesaver! Easy to use site, and quick rewards!
I love swagbucks and has earned good money. It is a nice way to save up for things like Christmas. This site is an amazing website I love everything about it.
Swagbucks (Also known as SB) does business with some shady people- and then when they don't pay you, SB won't always pick up the slack. SB is essentially a middleman- companies with offers put them up on SB's page, and SB takes a cut off the top. There's nothing wrong with this in theory- as long as SB provides a fair service and adds to the experience, I'm fine with giving them a slice of the pie. However, SB doesn't add value- it sometimes actually takes it away. People have been banned for submitting support tickets, and even if you do a paid offer you won't always receive compensation that you are owed. Support ignores people, and they want screenshots for any dispute made. They are NOT friendly. Yes, they pay, and yes, I have made money, however they are not the best company, and it is near impossible to make minimum wage on their site.
The surveys are not worth taking due to almost 100% disqualification after I have spent more time than is listed just getting to the start of the survey.
Lots of videos don't play so there is a lot of time spent waiting for the video to "time out" and give you credit. I have found some really good information and resources out of the videos.
I use this mainly for a little extra cash. I work full-time and constantly on the run with my kids so I'm grateful for the videos able to run while I'm on the go. Yeah, it doesn't earn me much but to earn me a little bit here and there for a little extra cash for Christmas or vacation is great. Thank you Swagbucks.
It's money for voicing your opinion. Great website for exploring deals, getting money for completing. Hope they keep expanding.
Swagbucks are awesome easy way for housewives or disabled people confined to home to make MONEY... i just redeemed my 7000 swagbucks for 50$ on visa virtual visa...
And for others too, lol. But those of us who have been out of work a while, probably appreciate it more than people who make loads of money.
I'm just getting started with this, always been very hesitant to do online surveys (and yes, many truly are scams) but this one -with just a few glitches- seems to be on the up and up.
Yes, it's like getting paid 50cents (maybe $1) per hour for your work but it's easy to give opinions. Will pay for the average person's internet bill per month if you spend a couple hours or so per day doing this.
I love using Swagbucks because it is an easy way to make extra income on the side by doing nothing. All I do is the daily poll, play swag iq, and answer a couple questions in short surveys every other couple of days and I also do some of the deals they have and Ive made a good amount of money over the past year.
It takes a ltlle time but worth it to earn a gift card. Many different ways to earn SB i enjoy swag IQ and taking the surveys and getting SB for shopping online
Have been so happy to have found SB a year ago! Strictly using surveys and nCrave, Ive added cards to my spending total for our vacation! Couldnt have done it completely, without SB!
I like it but some surveys kick you out when youve spent a considerable amount of time. Then you wont get paid for the survey. But overall the e-gift cards work and this site have many ways to earn points.
I happened across Swagbucks one day while internet surfing. I couldn't be happier... I am able to cash out frequently. Thank you, Swagbucks, for allowing me the opportunity to be a member of your community!
Swagbucks is a fun website to earn gift cards. Different activities are available to earn points to redeem for the gift cards.
Yeah it pretty cool that this is legit. I have recommended it to my family and friends. I get on swagbucks in the evening when there is nothing left to do, it takes a little time but you make a little money.
I have been so glad to have extra spending money using Swagbucks gift cards! I have encouraged my daughters to use Swagbucks to buy those extras, without hurting their budget. One daughter used her Swagbucks on Lowes gift cards to buy needed items for her new home. This year my Swagbucks (gift cards) will be used toward my Florida vacation budget. Thanks Swagbucks!
