I love swagbucks it's great and I have earn a few gift cards that I really appreciate. I'm excited to earn my next one or reach a new goal.
Earning swagbucks was fun and built up fast. Once I had enough to redeem I got my e gift card in just 2 days.
I enjoy Swagbucks because it allows me to earn rewards for places I choose.
And I can use my rewards for things I want
I have had for less than a month and already earned $50. A lot of points takes months to be credited so be patient I aim for 100 swag bucks a day doing surveys only. The videos lag to much.
I know what your thinking... cause I think the same thing whenever I sign up for one of these sites... there's no way someone is going to pay me real money just for answering some questions. But this is one of the few sites that I have found that really dose pay... weather its gift cards or a visa card that can be used anywhere. And answering surveys isn't the only way to earn Swagbucks, they have tons of different ways to earn and tons of different things to redeem them for. Truly one of the best sites out there.
They ended up banning me from doing surveys for some lame reason. I am signed up with MULTIPLE survey panels and have been for over a year, and I have NEVER been banned from surveys. So obviously I'm doing something right and SwagBucks did something wrong. They don't even tell you why they ban you. All I know is, I was being a BEAST making money with SwagBucks. Then they ban me out of the blue. Never been banned before. LOL. What a joke.
Swag bucks is a good way to kill time and earn a few bucks at my own pace. I use the gift cards for things I wouldn't normally buy just to try them out.
I am on swagbucks daily and use the searches daily and polls and watch videos to get gift cards to Walmart, it comes in handy for birthday presents for grandkids
Swagbucks offers an entertaining way for someone like me to pick up a little extra income in a convenient and interesting way. Spend a few minutes at the computer doing simple and often entertaining tasks, such as filling out surveys or watching videos and earn some extra pocket money or samples of products you would have to buy.
With some of the activities it is worth the time. The surveys mostly are not. They go through about 20 questions and the they say you do not qualify. The watching videos and using the search is a good way to earn points slowly
I have been on Swagbucks for almost two months now and I absolitely love it! I stay answering surveys or watching videos to earn SB every single day! There is no limit to how much you can earn here and so many different options to redeem your SB's! I just cashed out for a $25 Amazon gift card and it only took 3 business days to get in my inbox! I promise you won't be dissappointed! There is something for everyone here!
I love swagbucks, they have awesome rewards! I would give them a 5 but I complete offers and recieve no credit for them, I always make sure I follow all the steps to get rewarded but that still happens :( I'm not one to complain and I appreciate the rewards so very much so it is what it is. Thanks swagbucks you guys are great!
I use Swagbucks everyday and truly enjoying searching, polls, and more. And its a awesome way to earn rewards and discounts on shopping.
Swagbucks is very legit, they offer many ways to redeem points. I put 4 stars because they take a little long to pay
The website is legit, but it takes longer than expected to earn points. Times listed are not true.
For example, you can watch a set of trailers/videos that is listed as "10 minutes", but that time doesn't include commercials, so it ends up being almost double the time.
Second example: the survey times are ridiculous. If you don't qualify for one survey, it strings you along and tries to find you another survey and on and on until the website decides there's no hope and you only get 1 point for all of that trouble.
The search function is easy, though. And using their website to earn points by shopping through affiliates is also easy (very similar to ebates).
So, if you have tons of free time and don't mind that the times listed aren't true, then it totally works. If you're like me and get easily frustrated over it, then Swagbucks is not for you.
Some times takes a while to gather up all the points but it's been worth it in the long run, I have a $100 Master Card gift card and I'm working my way to a $50 Amazon! And I've only had the account for a few months!
I have only been using the site for a few weeks, but I have already redeemed a reward and I am half way to another. I love that you get rewards for doing things that you already do.
It was okay. Took me a very long time to earn the swagbucks. Sometimes they wouldn't load in, and it takes very long to build up a decent amount.
This a great website to get free gift cards, doing surveys of course. Anytime I shop online, I can also get points for gift cards. Wonderful Site.
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.
