Swag bucks has been working out for me pretty well. It takes patience, but it's worth it! I definitely reconsider swag bucks to everyone.
I like love the way Swagbucks is quick to let us redeem our points for gifts cards and how the by offer a lot opportunity to receive rewards
I like it but you really have to take hours completing so many surveys and many of them says your unqualified for this survey after you answered many questions. I am happy with my gift card but I spend literally three weeks doing multiple surveys for so many hours sitting down and I ended up hurting my neck and back. But I still appreciate this website
I like this website because it is simple to just go on every once in a while and earn points and then just get some extra money for it. It works, I have used it and gotten 2 gift cards which were valid. To earn extra points you can use this link to sign up. http://www.swagbucks.com/p/register?rb=*******
I recently started using swagbucks about 2 weeks ago and I have already redeemed my first $25 gift card and i'm on the way to another one! The website is super simple to operate and you have a ton of options to choose from. I also like that this website offers you rewards on purchases you are already planning on buying. There is an abundance of useful information on the website as well. I am telling all of my family and friends about this site and plan on using it in the for the foreseeable future.
I work 3rd shift so I need something to keep me awake. The basic idea of this site is take surveys. Each survey you take is worth so many swag bucks that is kinda like real money but in the form of gift cards. Example: 5,000 swagbucks =$50 Gift Card. Each survey is looking for certain ages, family with kids, certain areas you live in that kinda thing. Some are fairly easy and quick 10-15 minutes others up to an hour. Depends on how hard you work at it to accumulate points. They have a lot of Brand name stores to choose from for the gift cards or you can get a Visa or MasterCard money card. I chose Walmart $50 Gift Card got a Keurig coffee maker only paid $9 which I thought was pretty good. You can shop online or an actual store. First they send a email then you confirm your account it will generate an instant code or send you a postcard via snail mail. Which takes about a week to get depending on where you live. I live in Kentucky it comes from The west coast so I got it in 3-5 days. Card arrived followed instructions code was sent to my email to give me the virtual gift card. Went to Walmart that same day used it, showed cashier she scanned my phone done. Patience is the key with this but, I know we live in an instant world now days but I think it's worth the time and effort to get it. Smartphone, tablet, laptop or regular desktop computer needed. Just a warning some surveys won't work on a Smartphone best to use other 3. Sorry this is long just wanted to give as much information as possible.
I love swagbucks. I use it all the time. It's help me and my family so much. We redeem the points for gift cards. I use them for online shopping or to give as a gift. It's great that this program is out there because it's easy and it's fun. I get paid to have fun!
Easy to accumilate SB's however the 7day wait period to redeem rewards is a bit inconvenient but all gift cards have worked without any problems
Swagbucks truly is awesome. It's a way to get rewarded for what you're already buying and also finding great deals on things you didn't know you needed. I will say that I forget to use it a lot, but that is more on me and my bad memory than Swagbucks.
I'm new to Swagbucks and haven't figured out all of it yet, but I already have gotten a gift for my participation. I look forward to earning more.
Love collecting points and doing surveys. But most of all, love redeeming points for cash prizes! The daily polls and videos are a plus too!
I ordered my first Gift card a few days ago and I was skeptical but the site is legit. I was able to get it within 3 days.
Great site and a nice and easy way to get free gift cards! I wish that there were more ways to earn Swagbucks but otherwise it's perfect!
Just took another SWAGBUCKS surveys did not pay after completion. Spent 20 minutes rating wines for Sonoma and they summarily dismissed me at the end. This is not the only time that this has happened. The company's customer service sucks! Also, they change the verification process on a whim, making it impossible to get your gift card. They scam a lot--definitely wasting a lot of time on this Rip-off site!
Is a nice way to save money/ make a bit of extra money. It can become addicting and time-consuming though. Be careful.
I have been having a tough time qualifying for surveys and have had a lot of issues with sites freezing. It is so time consuming to try and complete the to do list that I have looked for competitive sights to use,
Site does what it says. Fun to use. Totally legitimate. Great prompt customer service. Of all the similar sites Swagbucks is my favorite and the one I will continue to use.
It's nice to get a little treat for your efforts! Swagbucks allows for this treat through their search engine.
I've made almost $200 on swagbucks in the past year and have never had any problems with it! Always receive my money to PayPal
Doesnt take long to earn a small treat for yourself or to make it a gift to someone else. Somethings I dont like but not enough to quit.
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
