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.

You get a lot of points when involved in things you have to spend money for, but the other things you can do for points does not pay off good at all.
Swagbucks has helped me be able to stay home and help me earn a little bit of extra money to supplement my husband's income.
I have received some great deals through businesses that i use and benefit from and swagbucks has paid me cash to purchase them. If i had more time in the day i could earn more by doing surveys
The basic principle of any company is to make money. Swagpennies makes money off of you by presenting tons of ads. Defend yourself with adblock. It will save you time and ensure that you aren't taken advantage of.
Always play smart. You can use a special email for the purpose of surveys and other stuff on Swagpennies. Never let your personal email become bombarded with spam and virus mail.
Also make a fake identity that you can willingly use on surveys. Unless if you don't care, don't let marketers get a hold of your real identity and location.
You don't have to keep the Swagpennies addon, just remove it after you install it. Easy 50 Swagpennies.
Don't waste your time by watching videos. The rewards are idiotic.
Act like an opportunistic thief. Snatch any offers you can find. If you don't get rewarded, then move on.
In less than a day, I managed to accumulate a not so whopping 300 Swagpennies.
I've been going Swagbucks for several months. I usually do something at least once a day. I just wish the pay off was better. It takes a long time to build up to any reward worthwhile. Over half the surveys don't work and kick you out after you've already spent time starting them. That needs to be addressed. I prefer a couple other sites, but SB is still better than nothing and something to do to kill some time and get some gift cards.
I like Swagbucks because I am not bombarded with emails or false promises. I have the option of when to go to the site and how to earn Swagbucks. It is easy to navigate and easy to earn points in a variety of ways.
Swagbucks offers the opportunity to earn a little extra each month. Don't think of it as a big opportunity but as a fairly easy way to pick up a little. We use our gift card payments as a means of reducing the price of what we'd normally pay. For that purpose, it meets our needs.
Easy way to earn Amazon (or other store) gift cards. Like getting paid to do something I already do!
Easy to use, easy to earn, and lots of options to redeem your points. I use the site while having my morning coffee, earning point as I'm gearing up to start my day. Extra gift cards for stocking stuffers... Win win!
I recommend it, but the polls are very long. The should offer shorter surveys to make time more productive.
I appreciate everything Swagbucks does. Anytime Ive sent in an issue its been resolved fairly quickly.
I have gotten 4 gift cards from this site and am on my way to getting a fifth. Though it takes a lot of time and effort, it's really worth the free stuff!
I am disabled and had been looking for a way to help my poor financial situation. Swagbucks is the answer. I am only able to work about 6 hours a day, but in those six hours I make at least $3. If you multiple that times five days since I don't work on weekends, then I make at least $15 a week which means I usually can make somewhere between $60 and $70 a month. This pays for a bag of groceries for me, so I am more then ecstatic that I found Swagbucks.
Was thrilled on how fast I was able to earn $50. This is a great app to earn a little extra money. Also, great that you earn money if you're shopping online their website. The survey's are a little time consuming but it's worth it in the end.
I love swagbucks! Ive been a member for a little over a month and have made over $250! As a single mom, it has been a great way to make some extra cash easily! Ill be a Swaggernaut for life!
So easy and fun to use! Earn extra cash by sharing your opinions whenever you have spare time! The surveys are great and rewards are real!
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
