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.

Great deal site.

Awesome way to earn rewards for things I would do or buy anyway! It's easy to use, and the gift cards are easy to redeem.

Love this Site
July 14, 2017

I have been using the site for 3 months now and it turns out that Swagbucks is pretty legit. They have countless ways to earn money and get cash back from purchases. Easy way to earn some extra cash in your free time.

I love using Swagbucks, and love that it makes it possible for us to go to a nice restaurant once a month when we are living on a tight budget. Thanks

While I do love Swagbucks, there are a few things that keep it from getting that 5th star. If I could give them half of it, I would.
1. Need more ACTUALLY free offers on "Discover"
2. A week or more to receive a gift that was won in a swagstakes or requested from turning in Swagbucks seems a bit long. Ok. Really long. What could you possibly be verifying?
3. The games section. 2 super basic games for pennies or GSN games that you have to pay to play.
But... Swagbucks is still possibly the best site of this type, especially when you take in account the minimum payouts for the majority of the survey sites. Speaking of surveys, while you will likely not qualify for many, a lot of them pay rather well and that adds up pretty quick. If you're active and re f er a few friends who become active as well, you can make a decent amount of "$".

I never had a problem before but since they've gotten new members it has started taking longer to get GCs and sometimes you have to fight to get the ones you order. I. E. I am waiting on three cards that say 'Email for Approval' and I did it multiple times but no results yet (been waiting three weeks on two card and a week on the thrid)

Awesome!

Easy way to kill some time and earn some free amazon gift cards! Some of the surveys are a pain in the but... and sometimes you get denied like 50x... but you're getting free money so why not?

Overall, I like visiting Swagbucks as it rewards me for various activities. However, the website has some glitch on weekends which makes it a little user unfriendly retrieving info from the menu bar. Furthermore, SBs rewarded seem less for all the time and effort put in to complete the activities.

I like Swagbucks but a lot of their surveys don't accept me so I usually only make Swagbucks by shopping.

Easy Money
July 14, 2017

Love this app and have my friend to thank for introducing me to it. I could make money much quicker if I had the time to watch videos, etc. Hopefully soon I'll have more time and can make money through PayPal gift cards for Christmas. Everyone needs to use this app. I've not been a member long and have made $25. Not a lot to some but any is better than none. The more you do the more you make!

Love Swagbucks
July 14, 2017

Swagbucks is an upstanding and fun site. Easy ways to earn swag! I just redeemed my first gift card. The only set back is it does take some time to get ecards, with that said you do get it and it is worth it! Thanks SwagBucks! :)

Its okay

I like SwagBucks except that I end up disqualified 80% of the time. It becomes frustrating especially when I spend time answering qualifications questions, it tells me I qualified. I answer MANY questions only to end up unqualified again.

I found that mostly, it is worth putting in some time to earn gift cards. However, it can be a little hard to figure out which offers are legit and which aren't.

Did not take long to earn gift cards. I am an active member some days are better than others. Some days you can get a good survey others not.

I've gotten a $25, $5, and $3 Amazon gift card from them successfully within one week. It takes a lot of time and patience, but hey, if you have a lot of time (like I do as a student on summer vacation), it could totally be worth your time!

I use it daily and have cashed in $150 in the last bunch of months to feed my videogame addiction. Very easy to use on both the computer and smartphone.
