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.

There are so many quality web stores that award Swagbucks that I usually get to choose a store that offers Swag Rewards when I shop. I would recommend having a Swagbucks account, definitely.

As a grandma of eight little one I'm always shopping and looking to get the best price on everything from home security to infant toys. Discovering Swagbucks has allowed me to enjoy free trials of many services, and earn Swagbucks that I redeem on their site for gift cards to purchase other items. In just the last 4 months I have earned enough Swagbucks to get (3) Walmart gift cards of 25.00 value each and (1) that value was 50.00. I also redeemed some of my Swagbucks for (2) 25.00 Visa gift cards since those can be used anywhere:-) we even used one to have pizza delivery. Now that I have the hang of it, I plan to continue my Swagbucks but save all my gift cards for Christmas gift purchases. I'm excited to see just how much I can earn for Christmas 2021.

I enjoy swagbucks it is a way to earn a little extra cash although it is time consuming but if you have a lot of time to consume then here ya go. It took me almost 2 weeks to earn enough swagbucks to claim a $5 Amazon gift card I purchased 2 books so I am happy with that. I do wish that I qualified for more surveys sometimes I will spend 15 to 20 minutes answering detailed and personal questions to find out I don't qualify for the major 100+ points surveys which I feel is a scam but some I do qualify for. I think if you don't qualify it should tell you that a couple minutes into the survey without all the personal details but I do like swag bucks it passes time by and i can make a little extra.

Loving it!
February 21, 2020

I really love Swagbucks, only thing is I find it hard to navigate at times on my app. I sometimes cannot find certain things that I can on the desktop version. However, I really love swagbucks. Just wish I knew how to earn more points!

Swagbucks has the Swag!
February 20, 2020

I love this site. I'm pretty competitive, so I make sure I spend ample time completing every task and survey available to me. I get frustrated after 5 or more minutes answering the survey questions and then I'm booted out, but it feels that much sweeter when I complete the big ones till the end! I have been racking up the SB pretty quick!

Loveen it
February 20, 2020

I average about $300 an year earnings on this site. The survey's get frustrating because you spend 15 minutes on a survey and then they tell you that you are disqualified... and you don't get paid.

This is a great way to earn points and then to use those points at different businesses, like Dunkin Donuts.
Kids love the donuts there.

Surveys, as with all sites, are nothing more than data collectors. They obtain your personal info, then sell it to others. Occasionally,(rarely) tou might get paid. Videos are pathetic. IF they run properly, many require up to 8 minutes of viewing for 1 cent, My data costs exceed that! Or, view 17 videos for 1 cent. Do NOT waste your time or money on this site!

Like the free gift cards. Most of the time I get kicked out of surveys. One time gift card never came and couldn't contact customer service.

Hit and miss
February 17, 2020

Lots of ways to earn points, decent rewards. Beware surveys, as they often fail, and Swagbucks will not credit even if you have proof. They claim to not get paid, but they often are and just want to keep the payment and not pay you.
Keep your proof of purchase for every offer, it's hit and miss on credit and they love to deny those as well.
